DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is the molecule in living organisms wherein the genetic code or <em>genes</em> is stored. The structural conformation of DNA in the nucleus of the cells is called <em>chromatin </em><em />and in cell division, chromatin is grouped into a certain number (46, in humans, for instance) called <em>chromosomes.

</em>DNA provides instructions for hereditary such that a part of DNA is transcribed into messenger RNA or mRNA for the genetic code to be transported outside the nucleus. The mRNA is then translated into polypeptides to form proteins that form specific functions in the human body.<em>

Genotype: 50% Aa and 50% aa

Phenotype: 50% Dimples and 50% no dimples

Explanation: Using a punnet square, we can figure out that the mother is recessive and the father is heterozygous. Putting the mother at the top of the square and the father on the side, you end up with the results above by crossing each square with the corresponding letters. It's okay if the letters end up backwards. Just be sure to face them the right direction, capitals being first once you finish.

Hope this helps!

Explanation:

Larger lenses are heavier, and tend to sag under their own weight, ruining the image quality as the lenses distort. The long mounting tubes are hard to make mechanically stiff, and so they tend to flex under the weight of the lens, making it hard to keep the optics in alignment.
