The law of segregation states that allele pairs separate during gamete formation. How then do we have two alleles for a trait? W

e receive one allele from each parent. The alleles join back together before traits are inherited. We receive the two alleles at separate times from one parent.

Answer:

We receive one allele from each parent.

Explanation:

We have two alleles for a particular trait even though the allele pairs separate during gamete formation as per the law of segregation. It happens because at the time of fertilization when each parental gamete which is haploid in nature fuse to form a diploid totipotent cell which is known as zygote. Formation of zygote restores the diploidy so that the off springs of these parents have two alleles for each trait. The two alleles of a trait segregate by the process of meiosis (a type of cell division) which occurs in germ cells at the time of gamete formation.

What is the base pairing rule state
malfutka [58]
The rules of base pairing explain the phenomenon that whatever the amount of adenine (A) in the DNA of an organism, the amount of thymine (T) is the same (Chargaff's rule). Similarly, whatever the amount of guanine (G), the amount of cytosine (C) is the same.

Each of the following complications listed below is a result of a homeostatic calcium imbalance. Which would not be life threate
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

The correct option is number 3.  A deficit of appositional bone growth would not be life threatening.

Explanation:

Appositional bone growth can be defined as the thickening of the bones due to increase in the number of bone tissues at the surface. In this kind of bone growth, the diameter of the bone increases rather than the length of the bone. This can lead to deformation of the bone but it is not life-threatening.

Rest of the options 1, 2 and 3 are serious disorders and can eventually lead to death.
