Answer:

A (one allele from each parent)

Explanation:

According to Mendel's experiments, an organism receives two forms of a gene called allele, one from each parent. He discovered in his law governing heredity that an organism will undergo meiosis and each of its gene variant (allele) will get separated into gametes (law of segregation). These gametes randomly combine when mated to yield two alleles in each offspring i.e. one from the male parent and one from the female parent.

He crossed pea plants in his experiment to observe the height trait. He crossed purebreeding pea plants that are homozygous dominant (Tall, TT) and recessive (short, tt). He realized that the F1 offsprings possess two alleles that is a combination of both alleles from the parent i.e. Tt.

He also realized that all the F1 offsprings are tall, which brought about his law of dominance, which says that an allele is capable of masking the expression of another in a heterozygous state. The allele that masks is called DOMINANT allele while the allele that is masked or covered up is RECESSIVE allele.

Hence, the F1 offsprings received a dominant allele (T) and recessive allele (t) from each parent to make up their genotype.

Experimental studies reveal that double-stranded DNA can exist in three different helical forms known as A, B, and Z DNA. Why do
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

The correct answer is - B-DNA is the most common form of the DNA present in the cell and a good approximation of the structure of DNA in the cell.

Explanation:

The B- DNA is a form of the DNA that is explained by Watson and crick by the double-helical structure model. B-DNA is the predominant form of the DNA out of the three forms of the DNA which are B-DNA, Z-DNA, and A-DNA.

B-DNA is is provide a good approximation of the structure of DNA in a cell and its most common form of DNA in a cell that makes it the most studied and focused form of DNA.

Thus, the correct answer is -  B-DNA is the most common form of the DNA present in the cell and a good approximation of the structure of DNA in the cell.

Can someone plz help me? ;(
just olya [345]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

D in my opinion wouldn't be correct because a vaccine is for if you come in contact with the sickness you are more protected and helps build immunity. So healthy people get them to try and build immunity against said vaccine. Like if you have the flu, your body is fighting. In the Flu vaccine parts of the flu are in the vaccine to help your body learn to become immune. So option C.

Sorry if this is confusing, hope it helps!
