Answer: This is due to the theory of independent assortment of gene.

This means that gene separate and assort with each other, independently. There a gene that is recessive in the parents may not be recessive in the offspring.

A recessive gene is the gene that makes up the physical appearance of the offspring. While a dominant gene is the gene that exist in the offspring, but is not among the gene that makes up the physical appearance of the offspring.

For the two pure stock parent plants, their have yellow and blue as the dominant gene, while green and white are the recessive gene.

That's is why the yellow and blue gene has a tendency of occurrence in future generations.

For their first progeny which appears to be all green, is because the green gene has sorted themselves independently to be recessive, while others become dominant.

For the second progeny, the recessive gene from the parent plants which was carried by the offspring as dominant gene, now became recessive in some plants.

Which type of molecule will require energy to cross the cell membrane? Question 3 options: A) carbon dioxide B) Na+ C) nonpolar
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

B) Na+

Explanation: Na+ molecule is polar, oxygen and carbon dioxide are nonpolar molecules. The cell membrane is a <em>phospholipid bilayer</em> made up of lipid molecules with polar and nonpolar ends. Since it is a bilayer, two phospholipid layers are arranged, one on the other in such a way that one faces the back of the other. The non polar ends are away from outside and inside of the cell, while  the polar ends faces towards all the molecules inside and outside the cell.

Since polar-polar molecules repel each other, Na+ can't pass through the cell membrane easily. So it uses the proteins attached the cell membrane inside and outside to transport such molecules by using energy in terms of ATP.

A biologist wishes to take a useful gene found in pine trees and introduce it into some bacterial cells. Her experimental proced
vovangra [49]

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

In carrying out these experimental procedure, the same restriction enzyme that is used to cut out the gene of interest should also be the same used for the cutting of the plasmid to generate sticky ends. Then the desired gene is inserted into the cut plasmid  then treatment with DNA ligase. Purified DNA ligase is utilized in gene cloning to join/ligate DNA molecules together forming a recombinant DNA. Thus, step 3 should be carried out after step 4.

A scientific theory states that the universe is expanding. Which of these statements is correct about this theory?
Yakvenalex [24]
The answer would be : <span>It is a well supported explanation which cannot become a law.

A law and a theory are different you know. In fact, the law is universel. This applies for everything unlike a theory which explains in particular why something is happening.

Any doubts ?

Hope this helps !
