Answer:

(a) 21% of the human genome is comprised of G.

(b) 29% of the human genome is comprised of T.

(c) 29% of the human genome is comprised of A.

Explanation:

According to Chargaff's rule, a DNA molecule has the same amount of pyrimidines (T and C) as purines (A and G), and G pairs with C and A pairs with T.

If 21% of the genome contains C, then 21% also contains G.

Therefore 21% + 21% = 42% of the genome is comprised of G+C.

The other 58% is comprised of A+T, and because they pair with each other, 29% will correspond to A and 29% will correspond to T,

Which traits are codominant or incompletey dominant? ( these traits don’t have a clear dominant or recessive , the heterozygous
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Codominant-  traits don’t have a clear dominant or recessive

incomplete dominance-  the heterozygous condition shows a “blending” or a “middle” condition

Explanation:

In codominance, the traits are expressed equally in the phenotype thus they don't have a clear dominant or recessive state. For example the ABO blood group alleles. The alleles A and B are codominant each being expressed equally.

In incomplete dominance the traits show intermediate expression where one allele expresses itself more strongly than the other. An example in man is seen in the inheritance of the disease sickle cell anaemia. Heterozygote who carry the sickle cell gene are said to have sickle cell trait and as such the carrier allele (HBa) has a stronger influence on the phenotype than the dominant alle (HBs).

drek231 [11]

Answer:

In the above experiment, these three flies are not enough cogent

Explanation:

Because in the above experiment which is designed to test that, in the above cage these three flies prefer which type of food either it is a banana which is fresh or either apple which is rotten. But the behavior of the flies is not the same, so it is difficult to judge where the flies spend more time. It is a probability that the flies spend most of the on a fresh banana or a rotten apple or both fruits.

These three flies could be unusual.
