The Gajasimha in Indian mythology is a magical creature with the body of a lion and head of an elephant. A cross between a blue

female Gajasimha and a white male Gajasimha produces offspring that has blue and white fur. The color of a Gajasimha is determined by two alleles, HB for blue and HW for white.

Answer:

co-dominance inheritance

Explanation:

<em>The type of inheritance would be </em><em>co-dominance inheritance.</em>

<u>In co-dominance inheritance, the two alleles representing a gene exert equal effects on each other. Neither of the two alleles is recessive and both contribute equally to the physical expression of the gene. </u>

Co-dominance inheritance is quite unique from dominant/recessive inheritance. For dominant/recessive inheritance, one allele (the dominant allele) suppresses the expression of the other allele (the recessive allele).

In this case, the two alleles, HB and HW, that represent the alleles for blue and white fur colors respectively both contribute equally to the physical manifestation of the gene when they are together.

<em>HB HB will result in blue fur.</em>

<em>HW HW will result in white fur.</em>

<em>HB HW will result in blue and white fur in equal proportion.</em>

why would having both polar and nonpolar properties in a protective boundary be advantageous for the cell?
Reika [66]

Explanation:

The polar nature of the membrane’s surface can attract polar molecules, where they can later be transported through various mechanisms. Also, the non-polar  region of the membrane allows for the movement of small non-polar molecules across the membrane’s interior, while preventing the movement of polar molecules, thus maintaining the cell’s composition of solutes and other substances by limiting their movement.

Further explanation:

Lipids are composed of fatty acids which form the hydrophobic tail and glycerol which forms the hydrophilic head; glycerol is a 3-Carbon alcohol which is water soluble, while the fatty acid tail is a long chain hydrocarbon (hydrogens attached to a carbon backbone) with up to 36 carbons. Their polarity or arrangement can give these non-polar macromolecules hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties i.e. they are amphiphilic. Via diffusion, small water molecules can move across the phospholipid bilayer acts as a semi-permeable membrane into the extracellular fluid or the cytoplasm which are both hydrophilic and contain large concentrations of polar water molecules or other water-soluble compounds.

Similarly via osmosis, the water passes through the membrane due to the difference in osmotic pressure on either side of the phospholipid bilayer, this means that the water moves from regions of high osmotic pressure/concentration to regions of low pressure/ concentration to a steady state.

Transmembrane proteins are embedded within the membrane from the extracellular fluid to the cytoplasm, and are sometimes attached to glycoproteins (proteins attached to carbohydrates) which function as cell surface markers. Carrier proteins and channel proteins are the two major classes of membrane transport proteins; these allow large molecules called solutes (including essential biomolecules) to cross the membrane.

A scenario where a cell may need to perform a form of endocytosis
navik [9.2K]

Endocytosis is a term used to describe a process of active transport that facilitates the movement of particles such as molecules and parts of a cell or the whole cell into a cell.The best scenario for the process occurs when a cell needs to pass/transport molecules that are large and cannot move through the membrane passively.
