In chickens the dominant allele Cr produces the creeper phenotype (having short legs). However, the creeper allele is lethal in

the homozygous condition. If two creepers are mated, what proportion of the living progeny will be creepers?

Answer:

66.6% of the living progeny would be creepers

Explanation:

The creeper allele is Cr for both parents this means that there is a 50% chance that they will pass the C or r trait to their progeny. In this scenario the deleterious inheritance of rr will be 25% so this will not be factored in this answer. The other progeny is CC 25% and Cr 50% for genotype only

The new calculation for living progeny is this: Of the chances of three living progeny there could be one normal CC and two creepers Cr. This means that 33.3% of the living progeny is normal CC and 66.6% of the living progeny are creepers Cr.

Answer:

A) vesicle

Explanation:

As described in this question, the endomembrane system is a system of membrane-bound organelles in eukaryotic cells that functions in the synthesis, packaging, modification, and transportation of lipids and proteins in the cell. The organelles that make up the endomembrane system includes: Secetory Veside, Lysosome, Golgi apparatus, Plasna membrane, endoplasmic reticulum etc.

According to this question, the part of the endornembrane system that provides a mechanism for transporting proteins from the rough ER, which synthesizes it to the golgi apparatus, where it is modified and packaged is VESICLES. Vesicles are membranous cellular organelles that function mainly in the transport of materials e.g proteins

AleksAgata [21]

Answer: 1.B). Evolution genetics.

2.C). Less Bacteria becoming resistant to the specific Antibiotics .

Explanation:

Evolution genetics is field of science, which includes study of genetic variations that lead to evolutionary changes in organisms. As some bacteria had changed their DNA that led to development of antibiotic resistance in them.

Due to antibiotic resistance, certain bacteria, in which changes in DNA take place, become resistant against some type of antibiotics and those antibiotics are no longer effective to prevent or kill them

Thus, the correct options to be filled in the blanks are option (B) and option (C).
