What form a spindle shaped structure of protein fibres on which the chromosomes move during nuclear division? 
frez [133]
Function of centrioles

An organelle that forms a spindle-shaped structure of protein fibers on which the chromosomes move during nuclear division are called the centrioles. Centrioles are part of the animal cell organelles. Hence, they are a small part of the microtubules organized and set in a particular course. Microtubules include 9 sets. Centrioles contain a cylindrical structure, packed with protein which is described as tubulin. Found mostly in eukaryotic cells beside the nucleus.

Color in poison dart frogs is controlled by a single gene with multiple alleles. A blue poison dart frog that is heterozygous fo
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Cb>Cy>Co>Cr

Explanation:

First of al we need to do the Punnett square. As a result we get the genotypes:

CyCb

CyCr

CoCb

CoCr

Because there are no red frogs, red is the least dominant as it isn't expressed in any genotype.

Half of the progeny are blue and half of the possible genotypes contain the blue allele meaning that blue is expressed in all genotypes. This means that blue is the most dominant.

The only alleles left are yellow and orange. We can deduce that yellow is more dominant than orange because one of the parent frogs is yellow and contains the genes for yellow and orange.

As a result blue is the most dominant, yellow is the second most dominant, orange is the third most dominant and red is the least dominant.
