Answer:

Explanation:

In placental mammals the umbilical cord is the birth cord which connects the developing fetus with the mother. The fetus receives oxygen and nutrients from the umbilical cord during the gestation period.

The umbilical cord consists of many stem cells. These cells can be used to treat many immune system disorders as these cells can be used to replace the abnormal or non-functional cells. Thus can be used to treat cancer, anemia and other disorders which affects the immunity of the body. The umbilical cord blood is easy to collect and it consists of stem cells 10 times more than the stem cells collected from the bone marrow.

In a particular population of mice, certain individuals display a phenotype called "short tail," which is inherited as a dominan
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The "short tail" dominant allele is easier to eliminate by selective breeding.

Explanation:

The only way for a recessive allele to be expressed (be visible) is when it appears as recessive homozygotic. These means the organisms need to have 2 copies of the gene. Selective breeding is based on the characteristics that one can see, so if the organism shows the "dilute" phenotype you can keep reproducing this individuals and get rid of the dominant allele.

On the other hand if you have a population with the dominant phenotype, you discard all the ones that have a recessive trait and you breed the dominant phenotype you could still get individuals with the recessive phenotype and individuals that express the dominant phenotype but are heterozygous.
