Answer:

50%

Explanation:

According to the given information, the woman is heterozygous for blue eyes. It means that the blue eye color is a dominant trait over brown eyes since heterozygous carrier genotypes are present for dominant alleles only.

Let's assume that the allele for blue eye color is "B" and the one for brown eye color is "b". Therefore, the genotype of heterozygous woman would be "Bb" and the genotype of the homozygous recessive male would be "bb".

A cross between Bb x bb gives following phenotype ratio = 50% brown eye : 50% blue eye

There is 50% probability of their child to have blue eye color.

Protein X is a protein that is composed of four subunits of equal size--alpha, beta, delta, and gamma--that are bound by either
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

One.

Explanation:

SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) PAGE ( Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) is the technique of the separation of the molecules on the basis of their molecular weight.

The beta-mercaptoethanol reduces and break the disulfide bonds present in the protein. When the protein X with the beta-mercaptoethanol is allowed to run on the gel, only one band will visible all the subunits have equal weight and will present at the same location on the gel.

Thus, the answer is one.

Explain wich part of dna carries the info and makes every organism unique
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

The part of the DNA that carries information and makes the organism unique is the genes and or chromosomes that make up that certain gene. Your genes are passed down by your parents and are called your genetic makeup. Such as genes for what your eye color is. They carry the information of which parent gave you that gene and if it is recessive or dominant. Specifically you will find this in the chromosomes cellular makeup and or nucleus.
