Answer:
The correct answer would be 2 in 4.
According to the question Xo and XO show codominance and express themselves completely when present in heterozygous condition. Cats bearing XoXO show patchwork of black and orange fur and are called tortoiseshell cats.
Xo codes for orange color fur and XO codes for black color fur. In addition, Y chromosome does not contain any gene associated with fur color.
Now, genotype of mother cat is XOXO (orange fur). So, the gametes formed would be XO only.
The genotype of father cat is XoY(black fur). So, the gametes would be Xo and Y.
The cross would lead to the formation of two male cats each having XOY as their genotype and two female cats each with XOXo as their genotype.
Hence, both the male cats would show orange fur and both the female cats would show patchwork of orange and black fur.
Therefore, we can conclude that 2 out of 4 would exhibit tortoiseshell coloring.
Answer: False
Explanation: The COMPLEMENT SYSTEM consists of proteins synthesized in the liver. They are activated by inespecific harmful substance (antigen) and begins a cascade of proteins that finally forms an attack complex against bacteria.
The COMPLEMENT is part of the INNATE IMMUNITY, because it is an inherent response, something all humans born with, and it is part of the first defense barrier against any antigen. Part of the innate immunity are too: natural killer cells, neutrophils, monocytes, dendritic cells and macrophages.
On the other hand, the ADAPTATIVE IMMUNITY, is the response that the body develops after being exposed to an antigen before. It is like something that the body recognizes, and then "learns" how to act against it. Part of the adaptative immunity are: lymphocyte T and B, and the antibodies (substances called Immunoglobulins). The immunoglobulins (Ig) are glycoproteins present in the blood.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
A. <em>18 hydrogen atoms </em>
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>Alkanes are group of hydrocarbon that are saturated</u></em>. They are saturated in the sense that each carbon atom has maximum number of hydrogen atoms.
- <em><u>The homologous series of alkanes has a general formula of CₓH₂ₓ₊₂.</u></em>
- Therefore,<u><em> an alkane with 8 carbons will have; (2×8) +2 = 18 hydrogen atoms. </em></u>Thus, the formula of the hyrocarbon will be; C₈H₁₈.
Answer:
Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that, through cellular respiration, can later be released to fuel the organism's activities. Some of this chemical energy is stored in carbohydrate molecules, such as sugars and starches, which are synthesized from carbon dioxide and water, In most cases, oxygen is also released as a waste product that stores three times more chemical energy than the carbohydrates. Most plants, algae, and cyanobacteria perform photosynthesis; such organisms are called photoautotrophs. Photosynthesis is largely responsible for producing and maintaining the oxygen content of the Earth's atmosphere, and supplies most of the energy necessary for life on Earth.
