Smaller cube (1 cm X 1 cm X 1 cm) 

<span>The surface area of one side = 1 cm X 1 cm = 1 <span>cm2</span></span>

 

<span>There are 6 sides, total SA = 6 X 1 <span>cm2</span> = 6 <span>cm2</span></span>

 

<span>Volume = 1 cm X 1 cm X 1 cm = 1 cubic cm (1 <span>cm3</span>)</span>

<span>Surface to Volume Ratio = 6 <span>cm2</span>/1 <span>cm3</span> = 6 <span>cm2/cm3</span></span>


Larger cube (6 cm X 6 cm X 6 cm) 

<span>The surface area of one side = 6 cm X 6 cm = 36 <span>cm2</span></span>

 

<span>There are 6 sides, the total SA = 6 X 36 <span>cm2</span> = 216 <span>cm2</span></span>

 

<span>Volume = 6 cm X 6 cm X 6 cm = 216 <span>cm3</span></span>

 

<span>Surface to Volume Ratio = 216 <span>cm2</span>/216 <span>cm3</span> = 1 <span>cm2/cm3</span></span>

<span> </span>

Select which of the following is not an accurate portrayal of mutations.
Shtirlitz [24]
D. Mutations will always impact an individual on some level

Most of these seem accurate or at least close to being accurate on how mutations affect genes however, some mutations won’t always impact an individual because some mutations are so minor. But this is my best guess

What is the purpose of a gene
wel

Answer:

Genes are a set of instructions that determine what the organism is like, its appearance, how it survives, and how it behaves in its environment. Genes are made of a substance called deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA. They give instructions for a living being to make molecules called proteins.

Explanation:

Genes tell your body how to make all its proteins. Each new cell in the growing embryo receives a full set of genes. But not every cell needs to make every protein and cells make some proteins only at certain times. Some genes are instructions for proteins that regulate the activity of other genes.

andriy [413]

The answer is; C

It is caused by the recessive allele because the parents appear normal but are carriers of the disorder (meaning they are heterozygous for Pseudohypertrophic muscular dystrophy). Only when the offspring is heterogenous recessive do they display the disorder.

The disorder is also sex-linked because it tends to affect only boys. This means that the disorder is probably coded for by alleles in the Y- chromosome that determines the male sex.
