n horses, the hair color gene has a dominant allele B (Black) and a recessive allele b (Chestnut). The gait gene has a dominant

allele T (Trotter), and a recessive allele t (Pacer). If a Black Trotter is heterozygous for both traits, how many types of allele combinations for these 2 traits can be found in the gametes it produces

Answer:

Four (4). BT, Bt, bT and bt

Explanation:

The hair color has two alleles, dominant B for black and recessive b for chestnut.

The gait also has two alleles, dominant T for trotter and recessive t for pacer.

Heterozygous black trotter will have the genotype BbTt.

Gametes usually have half the amount of allele of the parents

BbTt can have the the following allelic combination in its gamete: BT, Bt, bT and bt.

<em>Hence, there are four (4) possible types of allele combinations for the two traits and they are BT, Bt, bT and bt.</em>

<em>You can see the attached image for the Punnet square analysis of the gametic alleles.</em>

Answer:

The answer is 9.

Explanation:

There are dominant and recessive genes for both the hair color gene and the gait gene in horses, B, b, T and t respectively.

If a black trotter is heterozygous that means it's genotype is going to be Bb and Tt, therefore it will possess both dominant and recessive genes for the two traits.

The allele combinations in the gametes it produces can be BBTT, BBTt, BBtt, BbTT, BbTt, Bbtt, bbTT, bbTt and bbtt .

I hope this answer helps.

You are studying a new species never before studied. It lives in acidic pools in volcanic craters where temperatures reach 100°c
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

In order to study an enzyme, or any trait of an extremophile microorganisms, you must try to replicate their natural ennvironment conditions. It means, you need to approach the 100 °C temperature, and measure this acidic pH to be sure which you need to use for your experiment. Besides, if it is suspected that the protective coating production is catalized by this enzyme, you really need to stress the cells soy they produce it.

The zebra mussel is originally native to the Black and Caspian Seas of Asia. Zebra mussels were first detected in the Hudson Riv
Allushta [10]

Answer:

Lack of predators  

Explanation:

The carrying capacity is the amount of organisms that the habitat is able to support. Invasive species compete with native species for limited resources including food,  niche, etc. This phenomenon may have important negative effects on the survival of native species, even it may lead to the extinction if the invasive species is successful

Which of the following statements is INCORRECT? Which of the following statements is INCORRECT? Mucous membranes line exits and
koban [17]

Answer:

The cutaneous membrane is made of a simple columnar epithelium

Explanation:

Cutaneous membrane is the membrane of the skin. This membrane protects the skin from the physical and chemical damage.

Cutaneous membrane is present on skin and exposed to the external environment. This membrane is made of stratified squamous epithelium and keratinized and consist of the underlying layer of dermis. Hence, the membrane is not made upof simple columnar epithelium tissue.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

What are the three types of osmosis? What happens during each phase?
Vanyuwa [196]
An isotonic solution is when the solute concentration is balanced with the concentration inside the cell , the water movement still moves between the solution, but the rates are the same in both directions, the water is balanced inside and outside the cell .

A hypotonic solution is when the solute concentration is lower than the concentration inside the cell. water moves into the cell and can cause the cell to swell; cells that don’t have a cell wall, such as animal cells, could explode in this type of solution.

A hypertonic solution is when the solute concentration is higher than the concentration inside the cell. In a hypertonic solution, the water moves out of the cell and causes the cell to shrivel.
