True

A genotype is the combination of genes in its DNA of the organism that determines its traits

Explanation:

Gametes from parents contribute different alleles of genes to their offspring. This why gametes carry only one copy of genetic material of the organism. They later fuse to form a zygote with a full genetic copy and capable of developing into an full organism.

Depending on which kind of alleles the parents pass down to the offspring will determine the offspring's genotype. The genotype of the offspring will, on the other hand, affect its phenotype which is the outward characteristic. An example is the sickle cell trait. If both gametes from the parents contribute the recessive alleles of the gene, then the offspring will be homozygous recessive for sickle cell genotype and this will show in the phenotype pf the person who will have sickle cell shaped blood cells.

Which of the following molecular motors is associated with intermediate filaments?
azamat

Answer: d. none of the other answers

Explanation:

Enzymes that turn chemical energy into mechanical work are molecular motors.

There are three main components of cytoskeleton including microtubules, actin filaments and Intermediate filaments. Only actin  filaments and microtubules carry the motor-driven transport on the cytoskeleton.

The most important feature of intermediate filaments is to provide the plasma membrane with mechanical support where it comes into contact with the extracellular matrix and other cells.

Unlike microtubules and microfilament , intermediate filaments are not involved in motility of the cells, hence do not associat with molecular motors.

Hence, the correct option is d.

The following are the main steps in the generation of an action potential. 1. Sodium channels are inactivated. 2. Voltage-gated
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

<h2>B) 4, 6, 7, 1, 2, 3, 5</h2>

Explanation:

Action potential ,the change in electrical potential associated with the passage of an impulse along the membrane of exciting cell. The order of steps in generation of action potential is-4.A graded depolarization brings an area of an excitable membrane to threshold.→ 6. in excitable membrane ,after that, Sodium channel  get activated,→ 7. aftre that  Sodium ions enter the cell and depolarization occurs,→1.after that, then Sodium channels are  inactivated,→ 2. Voltage-gated potassium channels open and potassium moves out of the cell, initiating repolarization, →3. Sodium channels regain their normal properties,→ 5A temporary hyperpolarization occurs.
