<span>The answer to this question would be: a male inherits only one allele of the X-linked gene controlling hair color

Tortoiseshell phenotype appears when a cat has two different X-linked gene that controls hair color. This result as a combination of hair color. Male cat sex gene is XY. Normally male cat only has 1 X gene, thus only have 1 color and can't have tortoiseshell phenotype unless there is pathological multiplication in X gene.</span>

lora16 [44]

Answer:

c. "short, long"

Explanation:

The question being described involves two different genes; one coding for beans length and the other for pod length. According to the question, beans may be tall (T) or short (t) while they can also have have long (L) or stubby pods (l).

From the phenotypic ratio result of the F1 generation, which were all tall and stubby, it is clear that tall bean (T) and stubby pods (d) are highest balloon. According to Gregor Mendel's ratio of dihybrid cross; 9.3.3:1, the least occuring phenotype, which is 1 of 16, can be "short, long".

which pattern of inheritance is responsible for a wide range of phenotypes that result from the individual organisms having many

Stella [2.4K]

The answer is polygenic inheritance.

Polygenic inheritance is responsible for traits that are controlled by two or more genes. It is also called multiple gene inheritance. Examples of polygenic inheritance are height, weight, skin color, eye color.
Since a great number of genes control one trait, it is expected that each one has<span> a relatively small effect</span>

The release of an inorganic phosphate from the myosin molecule directly results in ________

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

power stroke

Explanation:

The process of muscle contraction requires several steps.
The most famous theory on how the contraction and relaxation of muscles take place is the sliding filament theory.
However, this theory has been refined and one important addition to it is the mechanism by which myosin can pull actin and cause shortening of the sarcomere.
For the movement of myosin, it binds and releases actin and forms cross bridges.
Myosin is subdivided into two regions - S1 and S2. The contraction of the S1 region is what constitutes the power stroke.
An important requirement of the power stroke is the hydrolysis of ATP to release an inorganic phosphate which provides energy for the process.
