Some geneticists study the genes that control bone development to try to understand bone growth and find cures for diseases. How

is this different from an orthopedist (a doctor who specializes in bones)?
A) The geneticist looks at the symptoms of a disease, and the orthopedist does not.

B) The geneticist works in a hospital, and the orthopedist works in a lab.

C) The geneticist focuses on what causes the disease, and the orthopedist treats the disease.

Answer:

Option (C).

Explanation:

Geneticists are the biologist that studies the effect of particular gene, the inheritance pattern of the gene and the variation caused by the gene in the organisms. Orthopedist are the surgeons that corrects the functional abnormalities in the bone.

Orthopedist is a doctor that specializes in the treatment of bone diseases. A geneticists is a researcher that mainly focus on the factors that are responsible for causing bone disease.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

A pure breeding tall pea plant was crossed to dwarf plant. What will be frequency of dwarf plants in F2?
Temka [501]

Tall pea plant was crossed to dwarf plant. The frequency of dwarf plants in F2 will be 0%.

  • A true breeding pea plant is one that, after self-fertilization, only bears offspring with the same traits.
  • True breeding organisms are those that share the same genes for the desired traits and are genetically comparable.
  • These animals possess homozygous alleles. If the alleles are distinct, only one of the gene's alleles—referred to as the dominant gene—will be expressed.
  • The other allele, referred to as the recessive one, has no effect.

According to the given cross:

                                  TT  X  tt   (parents)

                                 Tt Tt Tt Tt  (offspring) all tall

Hence the percentage of dwarf individuals is 0.

If an organism’s diploid chromosome number is 18, how many different possible combinations of homologous chromosomes lining up d

<span>D. 9 </span>

<span>Notice that diploid cells which 18 are the complete number of chromosome pair of the organism. This usually happens under cell divison –mitosis which process of replicating oneself to produce another like cell. Meiosis occurs in gametes, sex cells. Their respectively called spermatogenesis (sperm cells) and oogenesis (egg cells). These cell division –meiosis produces haploid cells, in which in words “half” from the complete cell chromosome number, hence, these </span>haploid cells<span> only produce half number or one set of chromosome (9) instead of the complete pair which in this case, 18.<span>

One difference between gene mutation and chromosomal mutation that
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

c. A chromosomal mutation can change the total number of chromosomes in the cell.

Explanation:

A gene mutation affects a single gene, and replication error is the main cause of gene mutation. A chromosomal mutation affects one part of chromosome or full chromosome. error in meiosis is the main cause of chromosomal mutation. Both mutations are responsible for a change in DNA. A chromosomal mutation leads to the change in total number of chromosomes in the cell.

Ksju [112]

Answer:

A few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back.

Explanation:

Some of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back which gives information to the scientists that some heavy particles present in the center of the atom which bounce back the positive particles. so from this evidence the scientists says that atom is divisible and having subatomic particles such as proton, electron and neutron. Proton and neutron is present in the center whereas electron is revolving around the nucleus of an atom.
