Answer:

Chromosomes are responsible for carrying DNA or the genetic material that makes an organism unique from the other. They carry the traits that make a plant, a plant organism, an animal, an animal, and bacterium, bacteria. Aside from this, chromosomes carry strands of proteins that make it possible for cells to undergo cellular division. Chromosomes are also responsible for many chemical processes that occur within the cell which ultimately make life a cycle.

Scientists believe that there are three jeans what contribute to skin color in humans.
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

C. Polygenic in which offspring receive three allele from each parent.

Explanation:

In genetics, a polygenic inheritance is an inheritance that involves more than one gene i.e. more than one gene controls a particular trait. This is the case of the skin color trait in humans, which is controlled by three genes.

However, since each gene contains two alleles, each parent will contribute three alleles for the three genes to the development of an offspring i.e. three alleles from the father and three from the mother will result in three genes in the offspring, each containing two alleles.

On chromosome 1 of fruit flies, the gene for yellow body is 27.5 map units away from the gene for tan body, 43 map units away fr
Masja [62]

Answer:

the gene for yellow body and the gene for forked bristles

Explanation:

The two genes that will have the highest recombination frequency are the gene for yellow body and the gene for forked bristles.

<em>Gene recombination refers to the exchange of genetic materials between different gene-containing regions (loci) on the same chromosome or between two or more independent chromosomes. A linkage map shows the frequency of recombination between genes.</em>

Generally, on a linkage map, when two loci are close to one another on the same chromosome, the frequency of recombination of the genes would be less than that of two loci that are further apart. In other words, the closer the loci, the lower the frequency of gene recombination and vice versa.

<em>In this case, the distance between the genes for yellow body and tan body is 27.5 map units, yellow body and sable body is 43 map units, yellow body and forked bristles is 56.7 map units. </em><u><em>The genes for yellow and forked bristles are the furthest to each other with 66.7 map units and, as such, will have the highest recombination frequency. </em></u>

Cross bridge formation between myosin heads and actin molecules is caused by the elevation of calcium ion concentration in the c
Naily [24]

Answer:

by the sarcoplasmic reticulum's calcium ion pumps

Explanation:

Rigor mortis or postmortem rigidity, is a state caused by chemical changes in the muscles that occur post mortem and  cause the limbs of the corpse to stiffen.

This occurs because after death, there is no cellular respiration and consequently, no oxygen nor ATP (ATP is required for the muscle relaxation).

Calcium enters the cytosol after death because it is released due to the deterioration of the sarcoplasmic reticulum and due to the breakdown of the sarcolemma. Ca2+ ions activate the formation of actin-myosin cross-bridging necessary for the contraction. Muscles are unable to relax, because myosin heads continue to bind with the active sites of actin and there is no ATP to destabilize the myosin-actin bond.

6.1.3 Final Exam: Semester 2 Exam
pashok25 [27]

The parental phenotype is the mother's free earlobes (Ff) and the father's nonfree earlobes (ff).

<h3>What genotype and phenotype?</h3>

The genotype refers to the information present in an individual's genome. Unlike the phenotype, it is not observable and rarely changes. The phenotype, in turn, depends on a combination between our genotype and the environment and can be defined as the observable characteristics of an individual.

With this information, we can conclude that the parental phenotype is the mother's free earlobes (Ff) and the father's nonfree earlobes (ff).

Scientific thinking: how can scientists assess the health risks of trans fats
Klio2033 [76]
Scientists can access the risks of trans fats by conducting an appropriate experiment which will show the effects of the fats on the human system.
This can be done by feeding known quantity of trans fats to rats over a specific period of time. During the period, the change in the rat weights will be measured on the daily basis and every other changes that is noted in the rats will be noted down. A control group of rats will be included in the experiment; these rats will be given normal rat feeds and not trans fats.
 When the period of feeding is completed, the rats will be killed, all the organs in the rats such as liver, blood, brains, kidney, etc will be harvested and these organs will then be biochemically analysed in order to compare the changes in them with that of a normal rats.
Rats are usually used in biochemical research because their systems and that of human is comparable. Any negative effect of trans fats that is noted in the rats will also hold true for human beings.
