In a two-factor cross, genes that are close together on the same chromosome follow mendel's law of independent assortment.
torisob [31]

False, it violates Mendel's law of independent assortment.

About mendel's law of independent assortment:

According to Mendel's law of independent assortment, the alleles of two or more distinct genes are independently selected into gametes. In other words, an allele for one gene does not affect the allele for another gene that a gamete acquires.

During his research on the genetics of pea plants in 1865, Gregor Mendel made the first observation of an independent assortment of genes and their related phenotypes. Mendel was doing dihybrid crosses, which are unions of organisms with two different features. He found that the trait combinations in his hybrids' offspring did not always correspond to the trait combinations in the parental organisms.

Draw a flow chart/concept map that illustrates the mechanism whereby the faulty cf gene causes the production of thick mucus wit
Artyom0805 [142]
So the flowchart should go like this:
Mutation in the CFTR gene >>>>>> Production of defective CFTR protein >>>>>> defective CFTR protein in cell membrane or no protein at all   >>>>>>>   Impaired ion transport across the cells   >>>>>>>   Cells secrete less chloride >>>>>>>   leads to more re-absorption of sodium and water into the cells   >>>>>>>   decreased hydration of mucus present outside the cells as more water is absorbed into the cells    >>>>>>>>   thick viscous mucus.

Coal-fired power plants release emissions such as nitrogen compounds into the air. The nitrogen and water cycle combine when nit
skelet666 [1.2K]
This process is called precipitation. Still, the process is formation of liquid from gas then will go down the surface.

The tricky part of this question is the combination of nitrogen and water, as this process is not nitrification. Nitrification is the conversion of ammonia to nitrous or nitric oxide by nitrifying bacteria. Transpiration if evaporation of water through plant leaves. Respiration is the conversion of oxygen to carbon dioxide by organisms.

kirill115 [55]
Its definitely not A or D because there are 26 weeks in 6 months.

generally, a weight loss of 1-2 lbs per week is reasonable and safe.
