Codominance or incomplete dominance is the answer in this question. This pattern of color expression is most likely to be an example of incomplete dominance or codominance. Codominance is defined as a form of dominance wherein the alleles of a gene pair in a heterozygote are fully expressed. Incomplete dominance on the other hand is a form of intermediate inheritance in which one of the allele for a specific trait is incompletely expressed over its paired allele.
The skin is composed of thin membranous tissue that is quite permeable to water and contains a large network of blood vessels. The thin membranous skin is allows the respiratory gases to readily diffuse directly down their gradients between the blood vessels and the surroundings. When the frog is out of the water, mucus glands in the skin keep the frog moist, which helps absorb dissolved oxygen from the air.
A frog may also breathe much like a human, by taking air in through their nostrils and down into their lungs. The mechanism of taking air into the lungs is however sligthly different than in humans. Frogs do not have ribs nor a diaphragm, which in humans helps serve in expand the chest and thereby decreasing the pressure in the lungs allowing outside air to flow in.
In order to draw air into its mouth the frog lowers the floor of its mouth, which causes the throat to expand. Then the nostrils open allowing air to enter the enlarged mouth. The nostrils then close and the air in the mouth is forced into the lungs by contraction of the floor of the mouth. To elimate the carbon dioxide in the lungs the floor of the mouth moves down, drawing the air out of the lungs and into the mouth. Finally the nostrils are opened and the floor of the mouth moved up pushing the air out of the nostrils.
Frogs also have a respiratory surface on the lining of their mouth on which gas exchange takes place readily. While at rest, this process is their predominate form of breathing, only fills the lungs occasionally. This is because the lungs, which only adults have, are poorly developed.
Do a cross graph with B and W
Answer:
A,B and E
Explanation:
- I+: I refers to the lac repressor, the + indicates that the repressor is functional
- P+: P refers to the promoter region and the + indicates that the promoter is functional
- Oc: O refers to the operator region, but the Oc indicates that the operator is constitutive ie. that it is always on/ can't be turned off.
- Z-: Z refers to the LacZ gene which produces β-galactosidase. Z- indicates that this gene is non-functional
- Y+: Y refers to the LacY gene which produces the permease protein. Y+ indicates that this gene is functional
So based on the breakdown above:
- C is not true because the lac operon is an inducible system. The operator needs to be able to be repressed. In this case the operator is constitutive (always on) which is not the correct form.
- D is not true because Z-, no β-galactosidase is produced.
Only A, B and E apply.
