Which of the following terms describes a pattern of inheritance in which one allele is only partially dominant?

Historically, the earth’s ocean had a ph of 8.2. In recent years it dropped to 8.1. How might this affect the ocean environment

Mrac [35]

Well with the ph above 7 that means the water is more of a base due to the salt within the water. the decrease in the ph is due to gloabal warming and the melting of ice which is somewhat diluting the water more. the wildlife within the ocean has been there since you or i so some creatures have developed a very specific habbitat and less salt withing the water could have effects on them. one such instace is if the organism needs a lot of salt. a decrease in salt would mean that their cells would bloat with water until they explode. this would obviously hurt the species as a whole and in turn effect the whole food chain.

Which of these processes is LEAST associated with producing genetic abnormalities? A) deletion B) nondisjunction C) replication

Marat540 [252]

The answer is (C) Replication

Though occasional errors could occur in cells during replication; the cells have error checking and proofing mechanisms that reduce the rate of error to one to several million replications in higher eukaryotes.
After all, one mismatch error during replication would not result in major effects. The others choices, however, have higher rates of causing genetic abnormalities.

In chickens, comb shape is determined by genes at two loci (R, r and P, p). A walnut comb is produced when at least one dominant

mariarad [96]

Answer:

in the obtained options, there is no dominant gene for the crossed pairs, therefore, no answer would be correct, however, when assigning a dominant character to the P gene, the correct answer would be:

E. Rr pp *rrPp

Explanation:

According to the information obtained we deduce:

Comb shape is produced by R and P

Comb of walnuts with an R or a P

Pink comb: 1 dominant P and R at the first locus and 2 recessive at the next locus

Pea comb: 2 recessive at the start and one dominant in the next position

1 single comb: 2 recessive at both loci

Rr pp × rr Pp will produce from the interbreeding: 2 walnuts, 1 single and 1 pea offspring.

We deduce that for the pink comb the genotype is: Rrpp

and for the pea comb it is rrPp

Rr pp × rr Pp generates crosslinks containing RrPp, rrPp, rrpp as children in a 2: 1: 1 ratio.

What happens to the undigested Good in the body?

Tanzania [10]

It shows up in your stool. Specifically the undigested food includes material that cannot be absorbed by the vili found in the small intestine. Thereafter the material moves to the large intestine, goes through the bowel tract, turns into feces and exits the GI tract via the rectal cavity
