Think about the actual physical process happening in the cell - the allele (or versions of a gene) are literally physical pieces of DNA strung together into chromosomes. And as the cell divides to form gametes, those chromosomes randomly assort themselves into the two new cells (conditional that each new cell gets one copy of each chromosome, in the case of gametes)...<span>

In leghorn chickens colored feathers are produced by a dominant allele,
Gnesinka [82]
<span> Basically the male will have CC, the hen will have cc, and neither of them will have I. The key thing is that _all_ the chicks are coloured.

The male must have at least 1 C to be coloured, and cannot possess the dominant I. The hen has cc and/or an I to not be coloured.

That one chick is coloured would tell you little - only that the hen couldn't have 2 inhibitor alleles because otherwise the chick would have to have one and it doesn't.

However, for all of many chicks to be coloured, that means that the hen can't have any inhibitor alleles (otherwise around 50% would be white for that reason alone).

So to be colourless, the hen must be cc. However, if the male had only 1 colour allele (ie it was Cc) that would still mean that 50% of the chicks would be Cc (daddy's 'c' and one of mummy's 'c's). 

Hope this helps please award brainly :)

2- Explain how land that gets broken up can<br> contribute to loss of species diversity
Minchanka [31]

Explanation:

Broken up land land contributes to a loss of species diversity through geographoc isolation. Geographic isolation is the physical barrier dividing the communities. It usually stops the gene flow between species in a process called allopatric speciation, contributing to reproductive isolation.

Further Explanation:

Spontaneous modifications in the genome can occur during the cycle of cell division, called mutations. These errors occur as copies of the DNA are produced within the cell; mutations may range from small modifications called single nucleotide polymorphisms to large-scale deletions and multi-gene additions.

Such mutations create variations that within a group become dominant, resulting in the creation of different, genetically distinct organisms called species.

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

e. All could limit protein mobility

Explanation:

Plasma membrane proteins perform a variety of functions: they act preferentially on transport mechanisms, organizing true tunnels that allow substances to pass into and out of the cell, function as membrane receptors, among other functions. These proteins vary greatly in their mobility, some are as mobile as lipids, while others are practically immobile. But FRAP has revealed that some proteins move in cell membranes much more slowly than in reconstituted liposomes. This limited mobility can be explained by the statement in alternative "E" of the above question.
