Um i going to just explain random stuff or things however you wanna say it. When a cell needs to be duplicated DNA strands are tightly coiled into chromosomes.Genes are certain stretches of DNA that code for a certain protein with a specific bodily function. On a chromosome, the location of the gene is called a locus. DNA contains all the genetic materiel that decides a person's traits, such as Hair color, Eye color, and more. Tha DnA also passes on traits from the parent to the offspring, which is why children always have common traits with their parents. Genes carry the information needed to pass on these traits. In summary, DNa, genes, and chromosomes are very similar in their composition, since genes are stretches of DNA. Their functions are the same in the sense that they are all vital in passing on traits from the parent to the child, and therefore in determining the physical traits of the offspring.




 Hope that this help bro .

4. What genotypes of parents will have only white-fur offspring? Parent 1 genotype = Parent 2 genotype = What genotypes of paren
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

All white offspring: Parent 1 genotype = homozygous dominant

                            Parent 2 genotype = homozygous/heterozygous dominant

For all black offspring: Parent 1 genotype = homozygous recessive

                                     Parent 2 genotype = homozygous recessive

Explanation:

The cross was between a white mouse and a black mouse and the phenotypic ratio of the resulting offspring is 50% white and 50% black.

Assuming that fur color in the mouse is represented by the allele A (a), In order to give 1:1 phenotypic ratio of the offspring, it means the white mouse is heterozygous with Aa genotype and the black mouse is homozygous with aa genotype. Also, it means that the allele A is dominant over the allele a.

                       Aa    x    aa

                 Aa    Aa    aa    aa

Aa = white

aa = black

Ratio of white to black = 50/50 or 1:1

Hence, in order for a cross to yield only white offspring, the parents can either be homozygous AA and AA or one will be homozygous AA and the other will be heterozygous Aa.

1.              AA    x    AA

       AA    AA    AA    AA (all white offspring)

2.            AA    x    Aa

        AA    Aa    AA    Aa (all white offspring).

In order to produce only black offspring, both parents must be homozygous aa.

             aa    x    aa

         aa    aa    aa    aa    (all black offspring)

The presence of calcium in the sarcoplasm is directly responsible for __________. Multiple choice 1 decreasing the length of the
xxMikexx [17]
  • The presence of calcium in the sarcoplasm is directly responsible for exposing the binding sites on actin.
  • Rigor mortis occurs after death because detachment of crossbridges does not occur due to the lack of ATP

<h3>What is Sarcoplasm?</h3>

This is defined as the the cytoplasm of striated muscle cells in living organisms .When calcium is present, the binding sites on actin are exposed.

Rigor mortis occurs after death and involves stiffening of the muscle tissue because  detachment of cross bridges does not occur due to the lack of ATP.

Explain the significance of a member of the normal microbiota that harbours an R plasmid.
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer and Explanation

The normal microbiota that harbouring an R plasmid will transmit its R plasmid to the normal microbiota because the normal microbiota does not have R plasmid after transmission of R plasmid its increases the resistance  capacity of normal microbiota. This is the significance of normal microbiota that harbours an R PLASMID.
