Biology
1 answer:
denis23 [38]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Viruses are microbes which don't need any nutrition. They don't grow,depend on food etc. Respiration is required to break down complex food materials in any organisms. Hence, virus not being to consume any food and depend on the energy of hosts; virus can't respire.

Plants use glucose to synthesize cellulose. Which statement accurately describes this process?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Sugar, which is a product of the photosynthetic process of green plants can be converted to glucose (a simple carbohydrate). Enormous amount of these glucose molecules can be linked together to form a complex carbohydrate called cellulose, which is a polysaccharide because it is made up of a long chain of glucose molecules. The cellulose is ultimately used to build the cell wall of plants.

Anabolism is the production of a complex molecule by a living organism from a much simpler one. Since, cellulose is produced by the building up of glucose molecules, the process can therefore, said to be anabolic

Explain why disease alleles for cystic fibrosis (CF) are recessive to the normal alleles (CF+), yet the disease alleles responsi
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Cystic fibrosis mutation is recessive to normal allele because only one functional or normal allele is enough to produce a functional protein. So, if mutation is present in one allele then also, a normal protein can be made from normal allele. The presence of normal protein prevents the expression of disease.

In addition, mutated allele only results in the loss of function of protein which can be compensated by the expression of normal allele. It does not add any toxic effect to the protein. Consequently, the disease is inherited in autosomal recessive fashion.

In contrast, Huntington mutation not only alters the structure of the functional protein but also adds toxicity to it. The altered protein is enable to interact with 100s of other proteins and inhibit or decrease their function. So, if only one allele is present then also, the mutated protein will be produced and it will result in the phenotype. Consequently, it is inherited as autosomal dominant fashion.

The dominant allele is D and causes dimples and the recessive allele is d and causes no dimples. How would a geneticist describe
SSSSS [86.1K]

A geneticist describes the phenotype of an individual with the alleles dd as homo-zygous recessive. In heterozygous individuals, it is masked by the dominant allele.

<h3>Dominant and recessive alleles</h3>

In diploid organisms, an individual receives two gene forms or 'alleles' for the same gene locus.

An individual is heterozygous when receives two different alleles for the same gene locus, whereas an individual is homo-zygous when receives the same alleles for a gene locus.

In cases of complete dominance, the dominant allele completely masks the recessive allele in heterozygous individuals.

Justify your answer by filling in the blanks. Both parents have white fur. way that this can happen is if their genotypes are bo
MissTica

Answer:

Both parents have white fur. <em>The only</em> way that this can happen is if their genotypes are both <em>homozygous (bb)</em>. Therefore, both parents pass the (b) allele to every offspring. When you combine two of these alleles, the resulting genotype is <em>(bb);</em> therefore, the resulting  offspring have white fur.

Explanation:

A homozygous trait can be described as a trait in which both the alleles for a gene are similar. A heterozygous trait can be described as a trait in which both the alleles of a gene are different. If an allele masks the effect of another allele, it is said to be dominant. the allele that gets suppressed is termed as recessive.

Hence, for a recessive trait to occur both the alleles of a gene should be homozygous recessive.

The punnet square for the above cross is shown below:

        b       b

b       bb     bb

b       bb      bb

A blockage in _________ vessels would most likely cause a myocardial infarction in the lateral right side of the heart
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Coronary Artery

Explanation:

A blockage by blood clot formation is coronary artery called as thrombus reduces the blood flow to the heart. The reduced blood flow causes the heart to dysfunction and the myocardial infarction occurs. Heart tissue can sustain serious damage upon such a shock.
