Answer: The correct answer to the question is option E

GAMETE GENOTYPES

On the given Punnett square,the letters used as column and row headings represent GAMETE GENOTYPES (e.g., TB, Tb, tB, and tb).

Explanation: A Punnett square is a graphical representation of the possible genotypes of an offspring which arises from a particular cross or breeding event. When creating a Punnett square knowledge of the genetic composition of the parents is required. The various possible combinations of their gametes are encapsulated in a tabular format. Therefore, each box in the table represents one fertilization event.

GENOTYPES are the two alleles that a cell has,the alleles can be dominant or recessive.

An allele whose phenotype always shows up in the organism when the allele is present is known as DOMINANT ALLELE while in RECESSIVE ALLELE, both copies of the allele have to be present to show this characteristic.

Dominant alleles are represented with an Uppercase letter (B, T). Recessive alleles are represented with a Lowercase letter (b or t).

There are two(2) types of punnet squares; for a monohybrid cross, these are 2X2 squares with four boxes, each representing one fertilization event between the parent gametes. The second type is used to predict the outcome of breeding experiments where two traits are being followed and the Punnett square is larger, with sixteen boxes

Answer:

(e) Gamete genotypes

Explanation:

Gamete refers to the cell. It can be a male cell. It can be a female cell. Genotype refers to the genetic makeup, composition, or structure of a specific organism.

Answer: b. can lead to other cardiovascular diseases

Explanation:

High blood pressure or hypertention can be define as a condition in which the flowing blood exerts force over the walls of the arteries. The arteries are the type of blood vessels which carries the blood from the heart to the rest of the body parts. This condition results in heart diseases like heart stroke or heart attack due to abnormal blood flow.

Which discovery supported the endosymbiotic theory?
alexdok [17]

The right answer is A.) DNA in mitochondria .

Eukaryotic cells, with their many intracellular organelles, have long been considered progeny of prokaryotes that would have become more complex as a result of genetic mutations. But from the 1960s, biologist Lynn Margulis proposed an alternative explanation that was first received coldly by the scientific community. His endosymbiotic theory, proposed in a more formal way in a 1981 book, proposes that eukaryotic cells as we know them today would be the result of a series of symbiotic associations with different prokaryotes.

Mitochondria and chloroplasts also have their own DNA that is not trapped in a nucleus, which is also the case with prokaryotes. However, the proteins encoded by this DNA do not cover all mitochondrial proteins. The prokaryote is thought to have lost some genes to the nucleus of the cell, a process known as "endosymbiotic gene transfer". For this reason, mitochondria and chloroplasts are now host-dependent for the synthesis of most of their components.

Which of the cell types shown helps determine capillary permeability?
alexira [117]

The correct answer to this is:

“Astrocytes”

Astrocytes also called star cells due to their shape are the most abundant glial cells in the brain. Extensions from these cells encase capillaries and offer extra control over which materials enter or leave the intercellular fluid of the CNS thus acting like a permeability membrane.
