6 0

Answer:

<em>The correct option is B. Alleles</em>

Explanation:

The punnet square can be described as a diagram which shows the outcomes of a cross. A punnet square will help us know what will be the probability for a particular trait to occur in the offsprings.

Genes might have the same or different alleles. If the alleles for a gene are similar in an organism, the organism is said to be homozygous for the trait. If the alleles are different, then the organism is termed as heterozygous.

A dominant allele is the one which which suppresses the effect of the recessive allele. A recessive allele gets masked by a dominant allele.

Write 8 examples on possible hazard in raising four-legged animals and fish​
dedylja [7]

Answer: The below are following hazards of four-legged animals and fish.

Explanation:

The four legged animals like cats, dogs, horse, and others need proper shelter, food, and care to survive.

They need to be taken outdoors for excretion, and walk.

The mating period is not fix and not easily done.

The four like fishes like turtle and squid are difficult to be handled in aquarium.

The four legged fishes do not come in fishing net during aquarium cleaning.

There are chances of being biten by four legged animals and their associated diseases like rabies.

These animals can lick the food we eat and contaminate the food.

The animal feces may produce air pollution.

The animal noise like dog bark can cause noise pollution.  Thus can lead to problem of hypertension.

discuss the genetic diagram to show a cross between a man heterozygous for brown eyes (Bb) and a woman with blue eyes (bb)
grigory [225]
You should use a Punnett Square for this question
The Punnett square predicts the offspring of two parents (two alleles). In this case you have brown eyes (Bb) and blue eyes (bb)
In the four boxes you should have Bb, Bb, bb and bb (50% chance of offspring with blue eyes and 50% chance of offspring with brown eyes).
The genotypes ratio will be 2Bb:2bb
And the phenotypic ratio will be 2 Brown : 2 Blue

Paclitaxel affects not only cancer cells, but normal cells as well. Would the effects of Paclitaxel be seen first in organs that
Svetlanka [38]

Answer: The most affected would be organs that have QUICKLY dividing cells (like the intestine and hair follicles).

Explanation:

Cancer cells are cells that divides uncontrollably giving rise to a mass of tissue called tumour. They grow faster than a normal cell in an uncoordinated manner, and continues to grow after the initial stimulus has ceased.

Paclitaxel is a drug that is approved for the treatment of cancer affecting different parts of the body. It's a microtubule-stabilizing drug whose mechanism of action is to induce mitotic arrest in the cancer cells.

Paclitaxel in its cause of action not only affect cancer cells but normal cells as well. To justify this statement, as stated earlier, the mechanism of action of paclitaxel is to induce mitotic arrest. Therefore the cells of organs where rapid mitosis occurs would be most affected. Skin cells, hair follicles and the cells lining our intestines (epithelial cells) all have high rates of mitosis as these tissues constantly need to be replaced.
