Answer:
1. d. changes in the methylation patterns of <em>loci</em> involved in growth and metabolic disease
2. b. differences in the expression of metabolic genes
d. changes in histone acetylation patterns
Explanation:
Epigenetics refers to the study of heritable changes in gene expression which are not dependent on DNA sequence. Epigenetic mechanisms involve DNA methylation, histone modifications (acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, etc) and regulatory non-coding RNA (ncRNA) pathways. These epigenetic mechanisms work together and mutually reinforce each other in order to modulate gene expression (either by activating or suppressing gene expression). In consequence, transcriptome data (e.g., genes differentially expressed in particular tissues/cells or stages of development) is an important piece of evidence indicating the existence of epigenetic modulation.
Answer:
1/2
Explanation:
Ggrr gives Gr, Gr, gr, gr
ggRR gives gR only.
So, the combination would be <u>GrRr</u>, <u>GrRr</u>, ggRr, ggRr
To have both dominant traits, the child has to GG or Gr, and RR or Rr
2/4=1/2
The correct answer is lungs, kidneys, and perspiration. About 10% of all alcohol that you have intaken is being eliminated by the body come from the lungs, kidneys, and perspiration. Through lungs, it eliminates it through respiration. In kidneys, alcohol is being excreted through urination and for the perspiration is excreting alcohol content through sweating.
Answer:
A. The specific functional role of an organism
Explanation:
A habitat is the general place where an organism lives and a niche is the range of physical and biological conditions in which a species lives and the way the species obtain what it needs to survive and reproduce.
Answer;
Seedless plant.
The fossil of a plant reveals that it produced spores that were used for reproduction. It was a seedless plant.
Explanation;
-Seedless vascular plants are plants such as fern and horsetails, liverworts, mosses; which contain vascular tissues, but do not produce flowers or seed.
-These plants reproduce using haploid , unicellular spores instead of seeds.
-These plants have life cycles with two distinct stages; one in which spores are produced and one in which sex cells are produced.
