In a certain species of parrot, having yellow feathers is a dominant trait and having green feathers is a recessive trait. A hom

ozygous yellow parrot is crossed with a homozygous green parrot. If the female parrot lays four fertile eggs, what will be the phenotypes of the offspring?

If we label the yellow parrot alleles with YY (a homozygote) and green parrot gg (also a homozygote) we can cross these two individuals and determine their future offspring.
YY  x  gg
Yg Yg Yg Yg
All of the offspring would receive one dominant Y allele from the yellow parent and one recessive allele from the green parent and their genotypes would all be Yg (heterozygotes). Since Y allele is dominant, all of the offspring would have yellow feathers.

The complementary mrna strand synthesized from the dna sequence of ctgac would be
noname [10]

Answer;

GACUG

Explanation;

-Transcription is the process by which DNA is copied (transcribed) to mRNA, which carries the information needed for protein synthesis. Transcription takes place in two broad steps.

-First, pre-messenger RNA is formed, with the involvement of RNA polymerase enzymes. The process relies on Watson-Crick base pairing, and the resultant single strand of RNA is the reverse-complement of the original DNA sequence. The pre-messenger RNA is then "edited" to produce the desired mRNA molecule in a process called RNA splicing.

-The nucleotides pairing follows the same base pairing rules as in DNA to form the correct sequence in the mRNA. However, during transcription, uracil (U) pairs with each adenine (A) in the DNA.

Compare surface, subsurface, and placer mining in terms of damage to the environment.
vfiekz [6]
Surface mining, which is also known as strip mining, is when soil and rock overlaying mineral deposit is removed. It can cause habitat destruction, air pollution from dust particles, soil erosion and pollution. Subsurface mining is removing deposits from the Earth by drilling underneath layers of rock and dirt. To keep the pathways clear, <span>mining companies have to pump out large amounts of water, which go into surface ecosystems. That disrupts the ecosystem by changing the pH conditions of soil and water sources. Placer mining is mining of stream bed deposits for minerals, a way of obtaining minerals and metal resources. Although, because it is small, causes less damage to the surrounding environment it still can disrupt river ecosystems with pollution and sediments. 
 

I hope this helps!!

vampirchik [111]

Down syndrome and Alzheimer's disease.

Down syndrome is a chromosomal disorder which is caused by the presence of extra copy of chromosome  21. Therefore also called as Trisomy 21.

Alzheimer's disease is a most common form of dementia(reduction in brain functioning). It is caused by mutation in single gene APP (Amyloid Precursor Protein) present on chromosomer 21.
