This has to do with SURFACE TO VOLUME RATIO. For a typical small cell, its surface area to the volume ratio get smaller as the cell grows. This implies that, if the cell grows beyond a certain limit, then the amount of nutrients that entered the cell will be limited, that is , nutrients will not be able to migrate into the cell as needed. To avoid this, the cell has to divide to reduce its surface to volume ratio.<span />

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

given, mother and father are heterozygotes.

let, father has B blood group and mother has A blood group.

then their heterozygous  genotypes are --

father = iB, iO  and mother = iA, iO

punnett square will be,

        iB        iO

iA     iA iB     iA iO

iO     iB iO    iO iO

the genotypes of their progeny will be, iAiB ,  iAiO ,iBiO and iOiO

and phenotypes will be 3 are heterozygous and 1 is homozygous.

How do frogs utilize extensor and flexor muscles in order to swim, jump, and do other frog things efficiently; include specific
ahrayia [7]
<span>The structure of the feet and legs varies greatly among frog species, depending in part on whether they live primarily on the ground, in water, in trees or in burrows. Frogs must be able to move quickly through their environment to catch prey and escape predators, and numerous adaptations help them to do so. Most frogs are either proficient at jumping or are descended from ancestors that were, with much of the musculoskeletal morphology modified for this purpose. The tibia, fibula, and tarsals have been fused into a single, strong bone, as have the radius and ulna in the fore limbs (which must absorb the impact on landing). The metatarsals have become elongated to add to the leg length and allow the frog to push against the ground for a longer period on take-off. The illium has elongated and formed a mobile joint with the sacrum which, in specialist jumpers such as ranids and hylids, functions as an additional limb joint to further power the leaps. The tail vertebrae have fused into a urostyle which is retracted inside the pelvis. This enables the force to be transferred from the legs to the body during a leap </span>
<span>The muscular system has been similarly modified. The hind limbs of ancestral frogs presumably contained pairs of muscles which would act in opposition (one muscle to flex the knee, a different muscle to extend it), as is seen in most other limbed animals. However, in modern frogs, almost all muscles have been modified to contribute to the action of jumping, with only a few small muscles remaining to bring the limb back to the starting position and maintain posture. The muscles have also been greatly enlarged, with the main leg muscles accounting for over 17% of the total mass of the frog.</span>
