Why doesn't an animal cell have a cell wall?

Only plants need cell walls, animals do not. Cell walls help maintain cell shape in plants, while the cell membrane helps support animal cells.

Which of the following would be LEAST likely in the fossil record? Which of the following would be LEAST likely in the fossil re
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The correct answer is desert-dwelling species.

Explanation:

Any preserved remains, trace or impression of anything, which was once living in the past is termed as a fossil. The examples of fossils comprise stone imprints of microbes or animals, bones, exoskeletons, shells, coral, remnants of DNA, the substances getting preserved in amber, and others.  

For the formation of fossils, the most essential condition is decomposition that takes place gradually, that is, at a slow pace. Thus, places like wet marshy areas will be the locations where the maximum of the fossils can be found as such places provide optimum conditions for slow mineralization and decomposition of bones.  

On the other hand, places like deserts would be the least likely to have a fossil record as deserts are devoid of optimum conditions required for the formation of fossils. In places like a desert, decomposition and demineralization of the components like bones take place at a brisk rate.

What feature of DNA allows for faithful copies to be made during DNA replication and passed on to the daughter cells? If you can
otez555 [7]

Answer:

complementary base-pairing rules

Explanation:

DNA is the genetic material of living cells. It is a long chain of double-stranded molecules, in which each strand is complementary to one another i.e. Adenine base is paired with Thymine base while Guanine base pairs with Cytosine base following the complementary base pairing rule as proposed by Chargaff. This pairing is responsible for the double helical structure of the DNA.

The complementary base pairs that a DNA molecule contains make it able to produce identical copies of itself during replication or duplication. Before replication of DNA can occur, the double strands need to unwind to form two separate strands, which serves as a template for the synthesis of new complementary strands.

In this manner, each new strand contains one template strand and one complementary strand, which forms two new double helix that is identical to the original strand. This two identical copies of DNA gets separated into two daughter cells, which is the essence of the DNA replication.

Brown spotting of the teeth in humans is caused by a dominant X-linked gene. If a man with normal teeth marries a woman with bro
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

The female with brown teeth had a father with normal teeth. Since normal teeth is a recessive trait, the father would have been homozygous recessive for the trait and would have transmitted one recessive allele to the female. Therefore, the female is heterozygous dominant for brown teeth.

Let's assume that the allele for brown teeth is X^B while the one for normal teeth is X^b. The genotype of heterozygous dominant female would be X^BX^b and that of the male with normal teeth would be X^bY.

A cross between X^BX^b and X^bY gives progeny in following phenotype ratio= 1/4 daughter with brown teeth: 1/4 daughter with normal teeth: 1/4 son with brown teeth: 1/4 son with normal teeth. Therefore, the probability of having a daughter with brown teeth is = 25%
