Answer:
In a diploid organism there are two copies of most genes.
The versions of the genes are called alleles.
Explanation:
Hello!
The genetic servants of a population are all variants of each of the genes present. These variables are possible thanks to the mutations that occur in the formation of the zygote (before or after fertilization).
When part of the DNA of an organism undergoes a point mutation (on one or a few nitrogenous bases) the body activates a series of responses to reverse it, however sometimes the mutation is maintained and can give rise to a change in a protein.
Sometimes and under certain circumstances (the change should not cause death or significant disadvantages in the body that is born) the mutation is maintained in the population giving rise to different alleles of the same gene.
In an organism there are two copies of each gene (genotype) but only one of them (phenotype) is expressed.
The allele of the gene that is expressed may depend on various factors but the dominant allele is usually expressed.

Answer:
D. Cell signalling which is released by one type of cell and acts upon a different cell
Explanation:
According to this question, adrenal cells near the kidney releases an hormone called ADRENALINE, which causes the cells of the heart to beat faster. This is an example of CELL SIGNALLING because chemical signals released by adrenal glands causes/triggers a response in the heart cells.
The chemical signal released by the adrenal cells is the ADRENALINE HORMONE, which induces a response in cells that are different from the cells of release (adrenal cells).
1) pathogen enters body and releases chemoattractants
2) a phagocyte/macrophage is attracted by these chemicals
3) the phagocyte engulfs the pathogen using its pseudopodia
4) the membranes of both organisms fuse forming a phagosome
5) lysosomers in the phogocyte fuse with the phagosome, forming a phagolysosome
6) these enzymes digest the pahogen (hydrolyse the bonds)
7) the antigens of the pathogen are placed on the surface of the phagocyte making an APC (antigen presenting cell)
