The Gap 2(G2) stage of Interphase

Explanation:

In a eukaryotic cell, the cell cycle refers to both -cell growth and cell division - leading to the production of identical daughter cells. The cell cycle is basically divided into interphase (I) and mitosis (M).

The interphase, during which the cell grows and replicates its DNA takes place by the following stages – Gap 1 (G1), Synthesis (S), Gap 2(G2).

The cells grow and increase in size during the G1 period.

The G2 phase or the second gap phase the cell utilizes energy and produces necessary proteins for undergoing chromosome manipulation and other organelles and prepares the cell for mitotic cell division.

DNA replication mainly takes place in the Synthesis or the S stage of interphase with each of the chromosomes (46) is replicated.  

Due to this DNA replication in the S stage, its content is doubled (4-N DNA content) when it enters the G2 stage and all the DNA is found within a single nucleus.

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

(a) can be used to bend epithelial sheets into tubes.

Explanation:

The adherens junctions are cell-cell adhesions localized in places exposed to abrasion or mechanical stress, close to the apical membrane in epithelial cells is one of these locations. Some of their functions are the initiation and stabilization of cell-cell adhesion, <em>they join the actin cytoskeleton to the plasma membrane to form adhesive contacts between cells that contribute to the folding and bending of epithelial sheets,</em> therefore they can mediate adhesion and signaling.

eukaryotes that reproduce through reproduction require two cells to contribute genetic material for the production of the next g
pav-90 [236]

For eukaryotes to produce the next generation through sexual reproduction, two cells must contribute genetic material.

Sexual reproduction, the process through which two individuals of different sexes combine their genetic information to create new species. In the majority of organisms, reproductive cells called gametes, which mate to create a diploid zygote, have chromosomes in their nuclei that carry the genetic material. The zygote grows into a new person. The most common method of reproduction among living things is sexual reproduction. A remarkable variety of offspring, each with a genetic make-up different from that of its parents, may result from sexual reproduction because it allows the rearranging of genetic material both within and between members of one generation. Sexual reproduction is involved.

Question 6 You cross a true-breeding red-flowered snapdragon with a true-breeding white-flowered one. All of the FI are pink. Wh
muminat

Answer:

E (Red shows incomplete dominance over white)

Explanation:

This portrays a monohybrid cross involving a single gene coding for flower colour in snapdragon plants. According to the question, a purebreeding red flowered (homozygous) plant is crossed with a purebreeding white flowered (homozygous) plant to produce an all pink flowered offspring. This phenomenon is called INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE.

Mendel, in his experiments, discovered that an allele can mask the expression of another in a heterozygous state. He called the allele that masks DOMINANT allele while the allele that is masked RECESSIVE allele. However, exceptions like INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE, has occurred in the sense that an allele does not completely mask the expression of its allelic pair, instead an intermediate phenotype, which is a combination/blending of both parental phenotypes is produced.

In this case, the red flowered snapdragon (RR) does not completely cover up the expression of white flower (rr), hence a hybrid/heterozygous offspring is produced that combines the phenotypic characteristics of both parents to form an intermediate flower colour (pink). Hence, it can be said that Red flower is incompletely dominant over white flower or no allele/trait is dominant or recessive to another.
