Function. There, the villi and the microvilli increase intestinal absorptive surface area approximately 30-fold and 600-fold, respectively, providing exceptionally efficient absorption ofnutrients in the lumen. There are alsoenzymes (enterocyte digestive enzyme) on the surface for digestion.

Suppose that the plasma membrane around a eukaryotic flagellum is opened to reveal the axoneme inside. the radial spokes connect
mash [69]

The flagella of the eukaryotes is composed of the doublet microtubules. The central bundle of these microtubules is known as the anoxeme. In an axoneme, a single pair of the singlet micortubules is surrounded by the nine doublet microtubules. When the plasma membrane of the flagellum is opened to expose the axoneme, and the radial spokes are broken, it will lead to the elongation of the axoneme,

In pea plants, the allele for inflated pod seed, I, is dominant over the allele for constricted pod seed, i. The Punnett square
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

<em>The offspring which carries the allele II will be homozygous dominant.</em>

Explanation:

A dominant trait can be described as a trait which masks the effect of a recessive trait. A recessive trait can be described as a trait which gets masked by the dominant trait.

A homozygous dominant trait occurs when both the alleles for the gen are dominant. A heterozygous dominant trait occurs when one allele is dominant and the other is recessive for the trait.  

Hence, a homozygous dominant trait will carry the alleles II.
