Alleles are letters that represent dominant and recessive traits.
A capital letter represents a dominant trait
A lowercase letter represents a recessive trait.
Dominant traits over shadow the recessive ones. This is known as complete dominance.
Referring to your questions let's us the alleles HH, Hh, and hh for the height of the pea plants.
But what do those letters mean?
HH = homozygous dominant (Tall)
Homo means same.
hh = homozygous recessive (Short)
Now this is different: here's Hh.
There's a capital AND lowercase letter.
This means that the plant carries the gene for tall and short plants, and can pass on either trait to the offspring.
BUT the dominant always over shadows the recessive. So Hh is a tall plant.
Hh = heterozygous (hybrid) (Tall)
You can interpret hetero meaning different.
Now I hope you're with me!
For question two it asks if a short plant can ever be a hybrid.
Referring to what I just said, that answer would be no.
Because there is no dominant trait to over shadow the recessive.
And short plants have the hh alleles, and they are homozygous NOT heterozygous (hybrid).
I hope this helps, and makes sense! If you have any questions please let me know. Genetics can be confusing.
Basically it helps with reproduction in flowers by carrying a male gamete from one flower to another and then fertilizing in cross-pollination with the pistil of another flower.
hope this helps :)
Answer:
The answer is D. Taiga
Explanation:
The taiga biome is also recognized as a coniferous jungle or boreal jungle.
Often times these biomes are extremely wooded with cone-bearing needle-leaved or scale-leaved evergreen trees.
Explanation:
First of all, nylon 6 is only made from one kind of monomer, a monomer called caprolactam. Nylon 6,6 is made from two monomers, adipoyl chloride and hexamethylene diamine
Answer and explanation:
Antibodies are structures made of four polypeptides, <em><u>two light (L) chains and two heavy (H) chains that join together and form a molecule shaped like a "Y"</u></em>. This structure is possible thanks to the <u>disulfide bonds</u> that bind light chains and heavy chains together. While the stem of the Y is constant and doesn't change ("<em>constant region</em>"), the tips of the Y, composed of 110-130 amino acids and called "<em>the variable region</em>", vary greatly among the different antibodies and are responsible for the high specificity of these molecules.
<u>This is why we could say that the primary structure of this protein is given by disulfide bridges that twist the antibody and allow it to bind to a protein from the flu virus.</u>
