Answer:

Thin and composed of ice crystals.

Explanation:

According to a different source, these are the options that come with this question:

  • thin and composed of rain
  • heap like and composed of rain
  • puffy and composed of ice crystals
  • thin and composed of ice crystals

The high-level clouds that occur above 20,000 ft. are known as cirrus clouds. Cirrus clouds are the most common of all the high clouds, They are long, thin, wispy streamers that are composed of ice. Moreover, these clouds are usually very white and they tend to appear when the weather is fair.

vovangra [49]

Answers:

  • Mendelian inheritance states that traits are determined when offspring receive <u>alleles </u>for each trait from <u>Parents</u>.

Explanation:

As per Mendel, all the traits which are present in an offspring are determined by specific genes which exist in alternate forms called alleles. For example: The height of a plant is a trait which is determined by alleles T for tall height and t for small height of same gene. The organisms acquire these alleles from parents (one allele from each parent).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  • Traits can be <u>Dominant </u>which means they can be seen and are capable of masking a different trait.

Explanation:

Dominant trait means when only a single dominant allele for the trait in an organism is enough for the organism to depict the trait. For example: In pea plant, purple flower color is a dominant trait over white. So any plant who contains only one dominant allele for purple (allele P) will have purple flowers but all plants that have two pp alleles will have recessive trait i.e White flowers.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  • Traits can also be <u>Recessive </u>which means they can be masked.

As mentioned in above example, white flower color of pea plant is a recessive trait. Recessive means that if a plant has one copy of recessive and one copy of dominant allele, the dominant allele will suppress or mask the effect of dominant allele. Example is the above case of flower color when a plant with genotype Pp will have purple but not white flowers.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  • Alleles are different versions of the same <u>gene </u>in an organism.

Alleles are just alternate forms of a gene. For example if a plant height is determined by a gene L, it has two forms capital L and small l which are alleles of same gene. But capital L is for tall height and small l is for short height.

At the end of mitosis, __________ daughter cells that are genetically __________ are formed, while at the end of meiosis, ______
Bond [772]

Answer:

At the end of mitosis, __two________ daughter cells that are genetically _____similar_____ are formed, while at the end of meiosis, _____four_____ daughter cells that are genetically _____distinct_____ are formed.

Explanation:there are two types of cell division; mitosis which occurs in somatic cells and meiosis which occurs in reproductive cells.

In mitosis, division occurs once leading to the production of two daughters cells.crossing over does not occur in the chromosome, so the daughter cells are genetically identical to the parent cell.

In meiosis,cell division occurs twice ,(meiosis I & II),leading to the production of four daughter cells.

Crossing over occurs,leading to genetic variation in the daughter cells.

Nina [5.8K]

Answer: feed-back

When the product of a metabolic pathway accumulates, it may be able to slow down or turn off the pathway by inhibiting the activity of an enzyme that catalyzes an early step in the pathway. This is referred to as feed-back inhibition.

Explanation:

Feed-back inhibition is said to occur when the final product of a biochemical pathway signal the inactivation of the starting materials of the pathway.

For example: when pyruvate signal the inactivation of phosphofructokinase, the glycolytic pathway gets turned off.
