DNA is the main type of genetic material found in a cell. In addition, it is found in the nucleus of the cell, so (D) is correct. DNA in the nucleus is used in replication (through mitosis and meiosis) via daughter cells to continue cell growth.

Compare and contrast the two types of bonds
stepan [7]

Answer:

An ionic bond is formed between a metal and a non-metal. Covalent bonding is a form of chemical bonding between two non metallic atoms which is characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms and other covalent bonds.

Explanation:

There are two types of atomic bonds - ionic bonds and covalent bonds. They differ in their structure and properties. Covalent bonds consist of pairs of electrons shared by two atoms, and bind the atoms in a fixed orientation. Relatively high energies are required to break them (50 - 200 kcal/mol). Whether two atoms can form a covalent bond depends upon their electronegativity i.e. the power of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself. If two atoms differ considerably in their electronegativity - as sodium and chloride do - then one of the atoms will lose its electron to the other atom. This results in a positively charged ion (cation) and negatively charged ion (anion). The bond between these two ions is called an ionic bond.

Sickle-cell trait is apparently an adaptation for the prevention of __________.
ikadub [295]
Sickle cell trait is apparently an adaptation for the prevention of Malaria.  Sickle cell trait is a condition in which the red blood cells are abnormally shaped, if they inherit two faulty copies of the gene for the oxygen-carrying protein hemoglobin. The faulty gene persists because even carrying one copy of it confers some resistance to malaria. As a result, the frequencies of sickle cell carriers are high in malaria endemic areas.

Sickle cell anemia is known to run in a family. A pedigree chart for this family is shown below. The parents are shown at the to
Simora [160]

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

From the description;

The parents: half shaded circle and square = heterozygous parents

The offspring:

unshaded square = homozygous normal

half shaded circle = heterozygous normal

half shaded circle = heterozygous normal

completely shaded square = affected (homozygous abnormal)

The unshaded and half shaded offspring are normal and do not have sickle cell anemia. The completely shaded square represents a male offspring with sickle cell anemia.

<em>Out of 4 offspring, 1 is affected for sickle cell anemia. Hence the percentage of the offspring that have sickle cell anemia is 25%.</em>
