  • The statement that alleles on homologous chromosomes determine traits, correctly describes the mechanism of inheritance.
  • Homologous chromosomes are defined as a pair of chromosomes which have the genes arranged on them in the same order however the alleles may be different.
  • The chromosome pair of homologous chromosomes is formed because a diploid organism has one paternal and one maternal chromosome, and when these 2 chromosomes pair together we get a homoglous chromosmes.
  • The variants of a particular gene present on the chromosome are known as alleles.
  • The combination of the alleles transferred from the parents to the offspring is responsible for the inheritance of traits.

docker41 [41]

Answer:

Las técnicas moleculares, especialmente aquellas basadas en la manipulación del material genético, permitieron automatizar el proceso de identificación y clasificación de especies

Explanation:

Las técnicas moleculares usadas para la clasificación de organismos son aquellas principalmente relacionadas a la manipulación de su material genético. En especial, las técnicas de extracción de ADN, amplificación mediante la reacción en cadena de la polimerasa (PCR) y posterior secuenciación han posibilitado automatizar el proceso de clasificación de organismos. Los marcadores moleculares de ADN basados en secuencias génicas evolutivamente conservadas tales como, por ejemplo, la secuencia del gen Citocromo Oxidasa I (COI) en animales, son ampliamente usados para automatizar este proceso de identificación y clasificación de nuevas especies.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

c. Cardiac muscle contains bands like skeletal muscle, but its contractions are involuntary like smooth muscle.

Explanation:

In Human anatomy, cardiac cycle can be defined as a complete heartbeat of the human heart which comprises of sequential alternating contraction and relaxation of the atria and ventricles, therefore causing blood to flow unidirectionally (one direction) throughout the human body.

Cardiac muscle is also referred to as myocardium and it's one of the three (3) muscles found only in the heart of vertebrates, the other two (2) being smooth muscle tissue and skeletal muscle tissue.

Cardiac muscle contains bands like skeletal muscle referred to as sarcomeres (contractile units), but its contractions are involuntary like smooth muscle and it's typically being regulated by the sinoatrial node of the heart.
