Types of Mutations. There are a variety of types of mutations. ...
Chromosomal Alterations. Chromosomal alterations are mutations that change chromosome structure. ...
Point Mutations. A point mutation is a change in a single nucleotide in DNA.
If we talk about guinea pigs, the trait of hair length is controlled by a gene with two alleles.
Allele for short hair (S) is dominant on the allele for the long hair (s).
The texture of hair texture is controlled by a gene with two alleles. It can be rough or smooth, and the allele for rough hair (R) is dominant on allele for smooth hair (r).
Now coming towards the question:
- A female guinea pig is heterozygous for hair texture and homozygous recessive for hair length.
Phenotype of the female will be Rough and long hair.
- A male guinea pig is homozygous dominant for hair texture and hair length.
Phenotype of the male will be Rough and short hair.
Hope it help!
Commonly, genes from bacteria are inserted into a crop's chromosomes to produce pesticide substances to kill insects
For drought, I'm not fully sure, but Maize is a very drought resistant crop often introduced to communities which receive little rainfall. Maybe they take a gene from the maize crop and insert it into the chromosomes
The answer is C. Fertilization. hope I helped.
