Alleles of the gene that determines seed coat patterns in lentils can be organized in dominance series: marbled > spotted = d
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

a.The phenotypic proportions obtained after having the genotypes are 50% marbled seeds, 25% spotted and dotted seeds since they are codominant, 25% spotted seeds.

b. Taking into account the F1 genotypes in the previous point, the expected phenotypes for the first crossing are 100% marbled seeds and for the second crossing 100% dotted seeds.

Explanation:

Let's suppose:

Marbled allele: M

Spotted allele: S

Dotted allele: D

Allele for Clear: C

a. Because both crosses were between homozygous parents, the entire F1 genotype is the same.

For the first crossing the descendants have the MS genotype, and for the second crossing the descendants have the DC genotype. It is enough to make a Punnett square to obtain the different combinations of genotypes between the crossing of MS and DC.

Why do our bodies rearrange the food we eat and the oxygen we breathe (O2) into carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O)?
Tema [17]

Answer:

A. in order to release the energy found in food.

Explanation:

Every cell in your body needs oxygen to function. You get the oxygen your cells need from the air you breathe. The air you breathe is made up of 20 percent oxygen. The rest of the air is mostly nitrogen (79%). Your body cells use the oxygen you breathe to get energy from the food you eat. This process is called cellular respiration. During cellular respiration the cell uses oxygen to break down sugar. Breaking down sugar produces the energy your body needs. This is very similar to wood burning in a fire. As the wood burns, it combines with oxygen and releases heat energy and carbon dioxide. When the cell uses oxygen to break down sugar, oxygen is used, carbon dioxide is produced, and energy is released. But instead of heat energy, much of the energy produced in cellular respiration is stored chemically for the cell to use later. Carbon dioxide is the waste product of cellular respiration that you breathe out each time you breathe. Blood picks up oxygen and releases carbon dioxide in the lungs. The opposite takes place in the cells where the blood releases oxygen and picks up carbon dioxide.

What is the digestive function of bile? (Anatomy and Physiology)​
valkas [14]

Answer:

Bile, informally known as stomach acid, chemically breaks down food early on in the digestive process.

Explanation:

Chewing is the first step in the process of digestion (assuming we are talking about humans and other animals with a similar digestive system) where the food is mechanically/physically broken down.

At the same time, saliva breaks down the food chemically (hence why leaving a simple carb such as bread in your mouth causes it to dissolve over time)

Once you swallow, muscles in the esophagus push the broken-down food to the stomach, where more chemical digestion takes place as a result of bile.

Which of the following is not one of the advantages that a closed circulatory system has over an open circulatory system? A. The
Digiron [165]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A. "The contents of blood come into closer contact with tissues in a closed system than an open system".

Explanation:

In a closed circulatory system, the blood has an specific path, circulating from arteries to veins and to smaller blood vessels throughout the body. This is in contrast with open circulatory systems at which the blood is not contained in arteries or veins but it suffuses the body. A closed circulatory system have many advantages over open circulatory system, however in a closed circulatory system the contents of blood are not into closer contact with tissues in than an open system. Actually, in an open circulatory system the blood is in closer contact with tissues.
