Answer: Elastin

Explanation:

The elastin fibers are fibers that are present in the matrix of connective tissues. These are produced by the arterial smooth muscle cells and the fibroblasts. These have bundles of ptoteins called as elastin. These fibers can stretch to 1.5 times in their length. These fibers act like a rubber band and are very flexible. These undergoes frequent streching such as in aorta and in some of the ligaments.

Thus elastin proteins will help the aorta to stretch while exercise so as to accomodate more amount of blood.

IrinaVladis [17]

Complete question:

If the recessive allele for cystic fibrosis is represented as c, classify the following genotypes as homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or carriers: CC,Cc, and cc. State which one has the phenotype of cystic fibrosis.

Answer:

CC - homozygous dominant

cc - homozygous recessive

Cc - carriers

cc will have the phenotype

Explanation:

Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder that affects the production of mucus in the body, primarily affecting the lungs and digestive system.

Because it is autosomal recessive, an affected individual needs to inherit 2 copies of the faulty gene. The presence of just one normal copy of the gene is sufficient not to cause the disease

In genetics, the dominant allele is usually displayed as a capital letter and the recessive as a small letter. Homozygous means someone has 2 copies of the same allele, heterozygous means they have different alleles. Therefore, CC - homozygous dominant, cc - homozygous recessive, and Cc - carriers. Only those with a cc genotype will be affected, as the presence of one dominant allele is enough to block the phenotype
