Answer: True

Explanation:

Genetically modified foods can contain genes of interest. This gene of interest can be any other organism which can be related or cannot be related to the organism.

The two different types of genes (one of the organism and other is the gene of interest) present inside the genetically modified organism will replicate inside the organism to produce desired product.

Pioneer organisms are the first organisms to reoccupy an area. True or False
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pioneer organisms are the first organisms that reoccupy a region that was destroyed by a disaster like flood, forest fire, volcanic eruptions, etc. These pioneer species can grow in the habitat that is barren and is not suitable for the growth and survival of other species.

Some of the pioneer species are lichens and algae. Pioneer species like lichens help in the formation of soil from breakdown or rocks which allow the formation of a suitable environment for the ecological succession of other species like mosses, algae, and other small plants. Therefore the statement is true.

Suppose "A" is a dominant gene for the ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide and "a" is a recessive gene for the inability to tas
dexar [7]

Complete question:

Suppose "A" is a dominant gene for the ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide and "a" is a recessive gene for the inability to taste it. Which couples could possibly have both a child who tastes it and a child who does not?​

a. father AA, mother aa

b. father Aa, mother AA

c. father Aa, mother Aa

d. father AA, mother AA

Answer:

c. father Aa, mother Aa

Explanation:

According to the given information, the ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide is a dominant trait and is imparted by the allele "A". This phenotype would be expressed in both homozygous and heterozygous conditions. The non-taster phenotype would be expressed in the homozygous recessive genotypes only.  

To have both taster and non-taster children, both the parents should have at least one copy of the recessive allele. Among the given options, the father with genotype Aa and the mother with genotype Aa have the possibility to have both taster and non-taster children.

Aa x Aa= 3/4 taster (1/4 AA and 1/2 Aa): 1/4 non-taster (1/4 aa)

Now, assume the individuals with the filled symbols in the kindred have the O blood type, whereas all the individuals with the o
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

When we talk about the inheritance of traits, or the passage of traits from parents to future generations down the line, we are not just talking about the visual (phenotypical) expression of those traits, but also, their underlying explanation, which is the genotype. A genotype is basically how the genes of the parents combine in such a way that the children inherit a set of traits from the parents, and express them phenotypically, or not.

In the case of blood types, we have four phenotypic groups: A, B and O. Each one of these types is characterized by the underlying set of genes that are responsible for what is expressed. While the O blood type presents a genotype ii, which is recessive, the A and B types will have the following genetic patterns: Ia Ia, or, Ia i (characteristic of the O genetic material) for the A type and: Ib Ib, or Ib i, for the B type. When there is a genetic conjugation from parents genetic material, regarding blood type, we would have these sets of genes combining. In most of the possible combinations genetically speaking, we have the recessive i gene appearing, including in the A and B dominant blood types. This means that when crossed, there will always be a chance of at least one offspring presenting the O blood type, even if one of the parents is dominant A, or B.

In answer: it is the fact that all three types present the recessive allele i, typical of the O blood type, that when pairings of genes happen between parents, the genetic characteristic of the O type may present itself in a dominant fashion, instead of the usual recessive pattern.
