Accurate measurement reduces parallax errors. one step that can be taken is ensuring that you measure from zero. This step applies to using instruments such as rulers or other devices for measuring length. Another step is to ensure that the instrument being used is calibrated. The next step is to use the appropriate device for the type of measurement.
Answer:
<em>The correct option is B) Their offspring cannot breed.</em>
Explanation:
Organisms belonging to the same species require the ability to breed and produce fertile offsprings. If two organisms breed to produce infertile offsprings, then they are not considered to belong in the same species. Infertile offsprings do not have the capability to reproduce. The breeding between a horse and a zebra produces zorse, which is sterile. This depicts that both the zebra and horse belong to different species as they cannot produce a fertile offspring.
Answer: mother: XX^aa, father: X^YAa, son: X^YAa, daughter: X^X^aa.
Explanation:
Color blindness is a genetic disorder that affects the ability to distinguish colors. It is hereditary and is transmitted by an X-linked recessive allele. If a male inherits an X chromosome with the altered allele he will be color blind. In contrast, females, who have two X chromosomes, will only be colorblind if both of their X chromosomes have the altered allele. This is because <u>males have one X chromosome and one Y chromosome, while females have two X chromosomes</u>.
If the woman has normal vision, that means she cannot have both chromosomes affected. She can only have one affected chromosome (be a carrier) or none at all. Also, if she has blue eyes, which is a recessive trait, then both alleles are recessive. But the eye color is not on the X chromosome. For example, her eye color genotype can only be aa, because if she had at least one dominant allele she would have brown eye color. As for the other trait, she can be XX^, with X^ being an affected (carrier) allele or XX, i.e. both normal. So in summary, her genotype can be XXaa or XX^aa
If she has a brown-eyed male child who is also colour blind, he has inherited the allele for colour blindness from his mother, since the father does not pass on an X chromosome to the male children, only the Y. With this we can now rule out the mother's XXaa genotype since she had to have passed on her affected X^ chromosome. Then the genotype of the mother is XX^aa. And since her mother can only pass on one allele to (recessive) because she does not have allele A, the dominant that determines her brown eye color can only come from the father. So the genotype of this son is X^YAa. The female daughter has color blindness and blue eyes. So she had to inherit the affected X^ chromosome from the mother (which we already know she has) and an affected X^ chromosome from the father, because the daughter needs to inherit both affected X^ chromosomes to develop the disease. And if she also has blue eyes, she had to have inherited a recessive allele from the mother and another from the father. So with this information we can say that the father's genotype can only be X^YAa. Because the father must have both A and A alleles of the same eye color, because he passed the dominant one to the son and the recessive one to the daughter. At last, the genotype of the daughter is X^X^aa.
translocation - when a gene is transferred from one chromosome to another
An inversion - a chromosome rearrangement in which a segment of a chromosome is reversed end to end. also inversion - when genes change order on the same chromosome.
Not 1 or 3 for sure
2 and 4 is the answer.
Answer: Option B.
Neural crest and peripheral nervous system.
Explanation:
Neural crest are bilateral paired cells of the neural tube that arise from the ectoderm layer of the embryo. Thesescells move to different part of the body and differentiate into various cell types like melanocytes,cartilage and bone, smooth muscle, craniofacial, neurons, gangalia e.t.c. The neural crest running through neural tube develop into peripheral nervous system after birth. Peripheral nervous system consist of neurons and gangalia outside the nervous system The peripheral nervous system connect the central nervous system to organs, skin and limbs.
