The best explanation that best predicts what happens to the trait over time is that the incidence of mid-digital hair will not change because it offers no selective advantage or disadvantage. A mutation is a sudden, spontaneous random change that occurs in the genetic make up of an organism. The presence or absence of mid-digital hair is controlled by a single gene with two alleles, and the allele H is dominant.

A phosphate backbone is the portion of the DNA double helix that provides structural support to the molecule. DNA consists of two strands that wind around each other like a twisted ladder. Each strand has a backbone made of alternating sugar (deoxyribose) and phosphate groups.

I hope that this helped you ;)

In a cell containing 10 chromosomes, meiosis results in the formation of daughter cells containing _____ chromosomes.
Sonbull [250]
5 chromosomes. Meiosis results in 4 haploid cells, meaning they have "n" pairs of chromosomes. The diploid cell that the 10 chromosomes originated in has "2n" pairs. This leaves us with a simple equation to solve the problem, 2n=10, so n must equal 5 chromosomes.
