Mumz [18]

to understand what the result of these crosses would be like, we need to know what is gene

<h3>Gene</h3><h3 />

The gene is a strand of a DNA molecule (deoxyribonucleic acid), which carries the characteristics that are genetically inherited. They are composed of a sequence of DNA and RNA (ribonucleic acid), responsible for the production and synthesis of proteins in the cell. The gene's greatest attribution, therefore, is to be a store and transmitter of information.

Genes can be classified into:

  • Dominant genes: assume the specific characteristic in the offspring;
  • Recessive genes: manifests itself in the absence of the dominant gene;
  • Structural genes: are those that contain the information that will determine the structure of living beings;
  • Operator gene: acts on the functioning of other genes;
  • Regulatory gene: responsible for controlling the synthesis and transcription of other genes.

<h3 /><h3 />

in genetics, are individuals who have pairs of genes that are identical or different alleles. This means that while the has two identical genes alleles, with the beings the opposite happens, since they have two different genes alleles.

with this information we can say that a white and short plant, when crossed with a plant  for both traits, has 60% of this plant being  with expression of the dominant genes and 40% of being  with expression of the recessive gene.

timofeeve [1]
The correct answers are a, c, d.
There are three types of capillaries: continuous, sinusoidal (or discontinuous) and fenestrated. Continuous capillaries are the most common type and they form tight junctions. Sinusoidal capillaries form an incomplete lining with several gaps, which allow red and white blood cells and some serum proteins to pass. These capillaries are mainly found in the bone marrow, lymph nodes and adrenal glands. Finally, fenestrated capillaries facilitate the movement of smaller molecules and plasma proteins and are mainly found in the small intestine. The majority of the fluid transport happens through the fenestrated capillaries.
