Answer:

a. All will have long tails.

Explanation:

Even though the mother is heterozygous for this trait yet her off springs will show dominant trait because her husband is homozygous dominant for this trait. The mother has one recessive allele but it will not be able to express in the presence of dominant allele even after their mating because father will contribute dominant allele each time.

The cross is depicted as under:

                        Mother             Father

Parental            Tt                       TT

F1                       TT     TT      Tt      Tt        

So all their offsprings will pehnotypically be long tailed because dominant allele (T) will suppress expression of recessive allele (t). 50% progenies will be heterozygous for long tail while 50% will be homozygous dominant for this trait.

During gene expression, the dna-to-rna step is known as , while the rna-to-protein step is known as _____.
zlopas [31]

During the process of gene expression, the DNA to RNA step is known as transcription while the RNA to protein step is known as translation.

Gene expression is a process which involves the synthesis of a functional gene product by using the information present in the genes.

Transcription is a process which involves the synthesis of a RNA from the DNA. In eukaryotic cells, the transcription occurs in the nucleus whereas in prokaryotes the transcription occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell.

Translation is the process by which the RNA is converted into a protein. The translation in prokaryotic cells occurs in the cytosol of the cell whereas in eukaryotic cells, the translation occurs in the ribosomes.

What is unwind DNA called
Papessa [141]

DNA helicase is the enzyme that unwinds the DNA double helix by breaking the hydrogen bonds down the center of the strand. It begins at a site called the origin of replication, and it creates a replication fork by separating the two sides of the parental DNA.

Hope this helps!
