Answer:

Nutrition and Growth.

Explanation:

Nutrition: Nutrition is defined as the ability of living organisms to feed. The reason for feeding is to enable living things live and carry out life processes like growth, respiration and reproduction. While all green plants can manufacture their own food through a process called autotrophic or holophytic nutrition. all mamma can not manufacture their own food but depend on plant directly or indirectly for their food, hence this type of nutrition is called heterotrophic nutrition.

Growth: Growth is defined as an irreversible or permanent increase in size, dry mass or weight of an organism due to addition of living proton plasmic materials. The purpose of growth is to enable organisms to repair or replace damaged or old tissue in the body. The food eaten provides the basis for growth of organisms.

In leghorn chickens colored feathers are produced by a dominant allele,

Gnesinka [82]

Basically the male will have CC, the hen will have cc, and neither of them will have I. The key thing is that _all_ the chicks are coloured.

The male must have at least 1 C to be coloured, and cannot possess the dominant I. The hen has cc and/or an I to not be coloured.

That one chick is coloured would tell you little - only that the hen couldn't have 2 inhibitor alleles because otherwise the chick would have to have one and it doesn't.

However, for all of many chicks to be coloured, that means that the hen can't have any inhibitor alleles (otherwise around 50% would be white for that reason alone).

So to be colourless, the hen must be cc. However, if the male had only 1 colour allele (ie it was Cc) that would still mean that 50% of the chicks would be Cc (daddy's 'c' and one of mummy's 'c's).

Hope this helps please award brainly :)

<h3>Answer;</h3>

Having untested DNA samples

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

DNA technology has a great and a wide variety of important uses, which ranges from,paternity testing, to matching the DNA samples of suspects collected at a crime scene, to matching relatives to a missing person's DNA.

However, use of DNA in forensics may have negative consequences which includes, the backlogs of forensic evidence and also present of untested DNA samples which delays the whole process.

Having untested DNA samples refers to presence of evidence collected from the crime scenes that is untested and instead it is stored in the law enforcement evidence rooms and has not been submitted to crime laboratory to be analyzed.

The nucleus has a system of _____ embedded within its outer membrane which allows communication between the nucleus interior and

Bumek [7]

Answer:

pores

Explanation:

The nucleus consists of "nuclear pores" on its outer membrane. Each of these are surrounded by nuclear pore complex. It allows the pore to regulate the movement of molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. It allows small particles to pass through such as ribosomal proteins. It prevents most large particles (except for histone) from passing through; thus, it is selective in nature. This function of the pores clearly shows that it allows communication to occur between the nucleus interior and the cytoplasm.
