Answer:
C
Explanation:
The one that got caught was the one that was most likely least essential to the herds' survival. It was either sick, young, elderly or injured.
Answer: For three traits inherited in a dominant/recessive pattern, the probability of an offspring in a trihybrid cross between parents heterozygous for all three traits to be recessive at exactly two of the three loci is 23/64.
Explanation: Let A, B and C represent the dominant alleles and a, b and c represent the recessive alleles. The genotype of each of the parent will be AaBbCc since it has been said to be heterozygous for all the three traits. There are eight (8) possible different types of gametes from each of the genotype. This can be calculated using 2^n where n is the number of heterozygous loci.
The number of heterozygous loci in the genotype AaBbCc is three (3). 2^3 = 8. The gametes are;
ABC
ABc
AbC
Abc
aBC
aBc
abC and
abc.
Therefore, sixty-four possible offsprings are expected from the cross AaBbCc x AaBbCc.
Out of these offsprings, twenty-three (23) are expected to be heterozygous at two loci as boldly shown in the attached image.
Answer:
Viruses are complicated assemblies of molecules, including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates, but on their own they can do nothing until they enter a living cell. Without cells, viruses would not be able to multiply. Therefore, viruses are not living things
The answer would be: <span>Binary fission involves a single parent cell, so there is only one set of genetic information that can be duplicated and passed on to the daughter cells.
If you see the picture, it is clear that there is only 1 parent involved in binary fission. This will exclude the first and third option.
The genetic duplicated before splitting, so the cells should have an equal number of parent genetic material, not halves. This will exclude the second option.

Answer:
C) Because apoptosis genes kill cells, natural selection is seldom involved in apoptosis pathways.
Explanation:
Apoptosis is a natural process taking in the cell which causes the physiological and biochemical changes in the cell which could cause the death of the cell.
The apoptosis is controlled at the genetic level therefore apoptosis is also known as the programmed cell death.
The studies have shown that the process is involved in the development of the finger and the toes in humans and the sequences controlling the process has been conserved during the evolution in a different organism.
This shows that humans and nematode have the same conserved sequence of apoptosis but the natural selection does not control the apoptosis.
Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.
