Answer:

An organism's trait can be affected by sex and environment.

Explanation:

A trait or character may be defined as the feature of an individual organism. A trait can be a quantifiable measurement of a particular character of an organism.

Factors that can affect the organisms trait are as follows:

Sex: Sex can influence the trait of an organism. Some traits are present in single sex, these traits are known as sex limited traits (milk production). Sex influenced traits like male pattern baldness is controlled by autosomal alleles.

Environment: Environmental factors like light, temperature can also effect the organisms trait. For example: In case of Himalayan rabbit the allele responsible for the pigmentation is active only at the temperature below 30°C.

Answer:

<h2>The changes that do not affect the function of a protein are called silent mutations.</h2>

Explanation:

As given here as a mutation occurs in an original DNA template that changes the DNA, by transcription this mutation passes into RNA and changes the RNA, but it does not change the protein sequence, it means that this mutation could be silent mutation.

Silent mutation is the mutation which cause the change of a base in that, after the mutation the codon codes for the same amino acid, or the amino acid which do no cause any change in the protein, hence these changes do not affect the function of a protein.

How would seasons on Earth differ if Earth's axis was at a 90 degree angle relative to its orbit?
Triss [41]

Answer:

There would be no seasons anywhere on Earth

Explanation:

If the Earth's axis was not tilting and it was at a 90 degrees angle relative to its orbit, then the seasons on Earth would disappear. The climate on the planet would be defined by the latitude. The equator and the areas close to it would always have summer, as they will receive direct sunlight throughout all of the year. The mid-latitudes will always have temperate climate, reminding of spring and autumn, as the sunlight will not be very direct, but it will also not be very dispersed, jut enough to create a constantly pleasant climate. The higher latitudes will always have winter, as the sunlight will come at a very low angle throughout all of the year, thus it will be very dispersed, not enough to ever warm this parts enough, so they will constantly be under ice.
