Answer:

1. Endocrine

2. Exocrine

Explanation:

The pancreas serves as both endocrine and exocrine gland.  

The pancreas is an exocrine gland as the pancreatic acini produce digestive enzymes that are delivered to the small intestine through a network of ducts. The glands that release their secretions by ducts are called exocrine glands.  

Islets of Langerhans scattered among pancreatic acini serve the endocrine part of the pancreas. The alpha cells of pancreatic islets secrete hormone glucagon while the beta cells of the islets secrete the hormone insulin directly in the bloodstream. Likewise, the delta cells of pancreatic islets secrete hormone somatostatin. The ductless glands that release their secretions directly into the bloodstream are known as endocrine glands.

Answer:

agouti - aaBbCc

solid color - AaBBCC

agouti black - AAbbCc

albino - AaBbcc/Aabbcc/AABBcc

Explanation: All the phenotypes that contain cc will be albinos, so they won't present any pigment deposition. Agouti black depends on the A gene to be homozygous and the B to be recessive, so the phenotype AAbbC_ is the correspondent. If A is not homozygous and B isn't recessive, we have agouti color. If B is homozygous and A recessive, we have a solid color.

I believe your Answer would be:

A: Sister Chromatids.

Explanation:

A sister chromatid refers to the identical copies (chromatids) formed by the DNA replication of a chromosome, with both copies joined together by a common centromere. In other words, a sister chromatid may also be said to be 'one-half' of the duplicated chromosome.

Hope I helped, if so may I get brainliest and a thanks?

I need help with 4 & 5 ASAP please

One option is that the samples run through gel electrophoresis is too small to be recognized (shorter strands of DNA travel further through the gel and larger strands travel shorter). The other option in that the restriction enzyme did not cut the DNA in the proper spot or there was a mutation in the bases that allowed for a mistake in the cutting; that is why there are 800 base pairs in one sample (that's a lot) An example of a mutation is that lets say the restriction enzyme was supposed to cut at the second G in GGACC. But if that G was turned into an A, then the restriction enzyme wouldn't cut there.

For number 5, you might have 800 because of the restriction enzyme cutting it wrong, a mutation that allowed for the cutting to not take place, or a fault in the sample taking.
