Assuming no crossing over between the gene in question and the centromere, during what phase of meiosis do alleles segregate?

Biology

Answer:

During Anaphase stage

Explanation:

Meiosis is the type of cell division employed during gamete formation when each resulting gamete (daughter cell) has their chromosomal number reduced by half. Meiosis occurs in a two step division; Meiosis I and II. Meiosis I involves the separation of homologous chromosomes (similar but non-identical chromosomes received from each parent) while Meiosis II involves separation of sister chromatids (replicated chromosomes).

Alleles are present on the chromosomes which segregate or separate during the anaphase stage. Alleles received from each parent are separated in Anaphase I of meiosis I, which the identical replicated alleles are separated in anaphase of meiosis II.

sattari [20]

Answer: Point mutation is easily reversible, thus non-lethal

Explanation:

Point mutation is caused by exchange of a single nucleotide for another. These change is called

1) Transition (when a purine base substitute another purine base, or pyrimidine bases substitute each other)

2) Transversion (when a purine base substitute a pyrimidine base).

However, note that a point mutation can be easily reversed by another point mutation; so, the claim that a nucleotide difference in the Hsr12 gene caused the human disease is inaccurate

Marianna [84]

Answer:

1. Sexual Reproduction

2. Genetic variations

Explanation:

Human reproduces through sexual reproduction. Sexual reproduction is the process of production of new progeny by the formation of male and female gametes (sperms and egg respectively) and fusion of gametes. During gamete formation, crossing over adds new gene combinations to the gametes. The genetic variations make the progeny of sexual reproduction different from each other and from the parents.

Body composition is BEST described as __________.
Dmitrij [34]
Answer;
Body composition is best described as the ratio of fat to other tissue in a body.

Explanation;
Body composition is the portion of fat and fat-free mass in the body. Lower percentage of body fat and a higher percentage of fat-free mass (muscles, bones and organs) indicates a healthy body composition. Body composition is important as it is used to asses the health and fitness level. The fat-free mass includes the bone, water, muscle, organs and tissues, these tissues are metabolically active, burning calories for energy while body fat is not.
