Duroc Jersey pigs are typically red, but a sandy variation is also seen. When two different varieties of true-breeding sandy pig

s were crossed to each other, they produced F1 offspring that were red. When these F1 offspring were crossed to each other, they produced red, sandy, and white pigs in a 9:6:1 ratio. Explain this pattern of inheritance in terms of number of genes, and any allele or gene interactions.

Answer:

The sandy variation could be as a result of a homozygous recessive allele at one of two varying genes in these two different types of sandy pigs. Let's refer to them as genes A and B.

A kind of sandy pig may be aaBB and the variety AAbb. The F1 generation in this cross produces heterozygotes for both genes to give all red. This indicates that the A and B alleles are dominant. In the F2 generation, 6 out of 16 give us homozygous for either the aa or bb alleles and produces sandy.

Out of 16 will we have one that would be doubly homozygous and be white. The other 9 will possess at least one dominant allele for both genes.

How would a muscle injury surrounding a broken vessel effect hemostasis?
8_murik_8 [283]
Hemostasis is the process by which bleeding is stopped, that is, a process by which the blood is kept back in the broken blood vessel. It is the first stage in the wound healing process. 
During hemostasis, three rapid steps occur simultaneously. In the first step, the blood vessel constrict in order to reduce the quantity of blood that is flowing out, secondly, platelets stick together in order to form a temporary seal which covers the break and thirdly blood clottings formed by adding fibrin threads which serves as molecular glue on the surface of the wound.

Cancers may be either inherited or they may be induced by environmental factors such as carcinogens and radiation. Select the st
fomenos

Answer:

Option (2) and (3).

Explanation:

Cancer is the uncontrolled division of the cell that might results in the loss of apoptosis in the cells. The cancer cell shows the property like angiogenesis and loss of contact inhibition.

Both the hereditary factors like mutations in some gene and environmental factors like any mutagen may inhibit the process of the cell division. Both these factors mainly inhibits the gene that are responsible for the regulation of the cell cycle like p53, Rb.

Thus, the correct answer is option (2) and (3).

A researcher is interested in finding out if the amount of amylase, a digestive enzyme found in saliva responsible for digesting
kogti [31]
The answer is <span>Take consistent amounts of saliva samples from a number of people who have not eaten in 8 hours and measure the quantity of amylase in each sample.

First, the researcher needs to know the quantity of amylase in the <u>same</u> amount of saliva. Thus the amount must be consistent and not varying. 
Next, people must not eat in 8 hours, so they are all in the same condition at the moment of collecting saliva. If some eat immediately before the sample collecting while some eat 8 hours before, the content of their saliva will be different. 
For the correct results, all conditions must be the same.</span>

A model shows that the moon has grown to twice its size, yet it has remained in the same place. In one to two sentences, explain
professor190 [17]

Answer:

If the moon has grown to twice its size, the gravitational force of the Earth on the Moon would be twice as much

Explanation:

The force of gravity between two objects is doubled if the mass of one of the objects is doubled.

If the moon has grown to twice its size, the gravitational force of the Earth on the Moon would be twice as much, since the gravitational force is proportional to the masses of both the Earth and the Moon.
