- The stretching of the antagonist slows and controls the action of the agonist. (True)

- The action of the antagonist opposes the action of the agonist. (True) 

To achieve smooth movement, different types of muscles adopted different types of contraction and hence different functions. 

Agonist and antagonist are types of muscle functions. Agonist muscles main function is proving a major force for movement such as (bicep curl)<span>. During movement, antagonist function is opposing the agonist. The antagonist can either relax ensuring joint integrity or stop movement completely. </span>

Now, suppose that the three tomato genes from Part A did not assort independently, but instead were linked to one another on the
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

All eight phenotypes are possible but parental phenotypes will be more in number

Explanation:

In the cross MmDdPp X mmddpp eight types of offspring are possible because MmDdPp will produce eight types of gametes. These offspring are:

  • MDP/mdp
  • Mdp/mdp
  • mDp/mdp
  • mdP/mdp
  • MDp/mdp
  • mDP/mdp
  • MdP/mdp
  • mdp/mdd

In absence of linkage, the genes would have assorted independently producing all the eight types of offspring in equal number. Hence the phenotype ratio would be 1:1:1:1:1:1:1:1.

If the genes are linked they will show the tendency to get inherited together and crossing over will not take place up to the expected degree. Hence fewer recombinants will be produced and more parental type offspring will be produced.

Transposable elements are DNA sequences that Group of answer choices are not coded to produce proteins. occur only on the X and
Lerok [7]

Transposable elements are DNA sequences that contain numerous point mutations. Thus, option "4" is correct.

<h3>What are Transposable elements?</h3>

Transposable elements are fragments of DNA that have the ability to jump from one part of the genome to another. While most of the DNA is always in the same place surrounded by the same neighbouring pieces of DNA, mobile elements move from one place to another causing many changes or mutations.

When a transposon moves through the genome, it can insert into a vital gene, disrupting its function, or into a location near vital genes, causing erroneous activation or inactivation.

On the other hand, there can be chromosomal rearrangements due to transposons of the same family with complementary sequences that are separated in the genome and that by sequence homology match.

This can lead to ectopic recombination. Large-scale rearrangements induced by mobile elements are considered a particular class of recombination events that influence genomic plasticity.

Thus, option "4" is correct.

How can point and frameshift mutations contribute to biodiversity of Earth? Explain your<br> answer.
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

<u><em>These mutations form new alleles that increase genetic variation in a population. This variation may lead to new species which increases biodiversity.</em></u>

Explanation:

Mutations are randomly occurring modifications that exist within the genetic code, leading to replication errors in DNA. DNA molecules are long-chain, helical macromolecules that store genetic material. They consist of different monomer sequences called nucleotides. In a reading frame, which contains instructions for protein production, they shape base pairs and codon sequences.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms are normal, as silent mutations, which sometimes result in no changes in amino acids. Some mistakes add a random nucleotide (SNP) in point mutations resulting in new alleles.

Frameshift mutations occur from nucleotide insertions or deletions that are not divisible by 3. This results in the codon requiring more or fewer nucleotides which disrupt the reading frame, resulting in a separate protein translation.
