C = dominant
c = recessive (cystic fibrosis)
CC, cc = homozygous (homo = same)
Cc = heterozygous (hetero = different)

Recessive traits are expressed only when two recessive alleles are present

If you get CC, you will not have cystic fibrosis. (<span>c </span>is the cystic fibrosis allele)
This person would be homozygous dominant and would not pass on the disease because they do not have any cystic fibrosis alleles.

If you get<span> Cc</span> you will not have cystic fibrosis b/c the<span> C</span> is dominant and overrides the cystic fibrosis allele c.
This person would be heterozygous and, though they do not have the disease, they would still have a chance of passing on the disease because they carry the cystic fibrosis allele.

If you get cc you will have cystic fibrosis b/c c is the cystic fibrosis allele and it is not being overridden by a dominant allele.
This person would be homozygous recessive.

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

No metabolism occur and decrease oxygen consumption.

Explanation:

There is adverse effect of chemical on metabolism and oxygen consumption of the treated seedlings because NADH is very important because it maintains the hydrogen pumping that produces ATP molecules. If NADH is oxidized to NAD, then the metabolism did not occur in the seedlings and due to no metabolism, oxygen consumption is also greatly affected.

Answer:

Phanerozoic Eon is divided into three eras on the basis of prevailing climatic conditions on earth and dominant life forms present during the time.

Explanation:

The Phanerozoic Eon is divided into three eras namely the Paleozoic, the Mesozoic, and the Cenozoic era. The basis for classification of the Phanerozoic eon into three eras are the prevailing climatic conditions on earth and dominant life forms present during the time. Changes in climatic conditions of earth altered the species composition and dominant life forms present in each era.
