MRNA is a short lived form of genetic information that is used in transcribing the genetic information, hence it is not very useful for analysis since it is fragile and wrong transcriptions happen quite often. SNPs (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) are a form of genetic mutation; they are more frequent than most other mutations since a single transription error may lead to this. While SNPs are important in genetic analysis and getting information about causes of disease, they are not very helpful in determining your maternal lineage. Similarly, while nuclear DNA contains a large portion of our genetic information, half of it is from our fathers and half from our mothers, so the analysis becomes hazy very soon. Mitochondrial DNA instead is directly passed down from mother to her offspring since the embryo contains only the mitochondria of the ovary. Thus, studying differences between mitochondrial DNA, one can gain information about his maternal lineage and go back to Mitochondrial Eve, the person from which all living persons have gotten their mitochondria from. Thus, the correct answer is c.

Choose two organisms from the following list. Describe a structural adaptation and ehow it helps the organism survive in its env
Dafna1 [17]
Since IDK which two you would choose, I'll just list all of them: fish have developed a light, streamlined body to get through water quickly to evade predators with and swim with ease, owls have big eyes so their pupils can get enough light to see in the dark since they're nocturnal, their light bodies and special (Fluffy???) flight feathers let it fly with virtually no sound, allowing it to sneak up on prey, tortoises have a large, hard shell for protection from predators and provides a mobile home on their back! Bats may be practically blind but that doesn't stop them when using echolocation to detect prey and chase it no matter what moves they make or obstacles in the way, snowshoe hares have big feet to sit on top of the snow in the cold winters where they live, their fur also changes colors as the snow melts and the plants start coming back in the more warmer seasons, poison dart frogs, sorry, IDK, cacti have developed spines all over them as self defense, (from what IDK) and they can last a long time without water (I think, don't quote me on that ^^') hope this helps

What is the expected phenotype of F1 progeny from a cross between two homozygous recessive mutants disrupted in different genese
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - wildtype.

Explanation:

Let assume there are four genes which are :

A-B-C-D

In mutant first, the genotype would be:---a-b-C-D

In the mutant second, the genotype would be:--A-B-c-d

If both of these genotypes are crossed with each other, the recessive genes a, b of mutant first is dominated and masked the expression by the dominant genes present in the mutant second.

Similarly, the recessive genes of the mutant second are dominated and masked expression by the dominant genes of mutant first.  This is possible only due to different genes are present in mutants.

Thus, the correct answer is - The correct answer would be - wildtype.
