In humans, dimples are a trait that exhibits simple dominance. The two alleles for this trait are dimples (D) and no dimples (d)

. A dimpled man whose mother has no dimples marries a woman with no dimples. What is the probability that their first child will have dimples?

Answer:

The probability is ½

Explanation:

Since the dimple trait is simple dominance, it therefore can be inherited in both the homozygous (DD) and heterozygous form (Dd). For non dimples we have (dd).

Thus, for a dimpled man whose mother has no dimples, it can be concluded that he is an heterozygote. (For him to be dimpled with a non dimpled mom, his dad has to be either an homozygous/heterozygous dimpled man. Since his mom is non dimpled (dd), therefore he can only be an heterozygous)

Therefore, a cross between a dimpled man (Dd) and a non dimpled woman will give.

Dd x dd

Dd dd

What type of organisms have cells that carry out all of the processes shown at the right?

Eukaryotic cell

A Eukaryotic cell contains a nucleus; more than one chromosome and is typically a multi-celled organism.  Both plant and animal cells are eukaryotic cells.

<span>The advantage is that eukaryotic cells have a nucleus which functions formally as to store the DNA of the cell which can translate into many functions such as cell division and work structure between cells that forms the hierarchial function to tissues.<span>

Simply, transcription is a copy of __________
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

b. mRNA from DNA

Explanation:

Transcription is the process of synthesis of RNA using a DNA template strand. The process of transcription occurs inside the nucleus in eukaryotes as their DNA is present in the nucleus.

The process includes unwinding of DNA double helix to expose the DNA template strand. The enzyme RNA polymerase binds to the specific start sites on the DNA template strand and starts making its RNA copy.

The newly formed RNA undergoes modification in eukaryotes before serving as a template for protein synthesis. However, in prokaryotes, the process of transcription and translation can occur simultaneously.
