Biology

sergey [27]3 years ago

Bcoz.. In meiosis ti change ploidy of cell from diploid(n) to haploid(2n) .. 2 division occur.. This helps in formation of haploid gametes.. When two gametes fuse.. They form diploid (2n) zygote.

On the other hand..

There is only one division in mitosis...bcoz no change in ploidy.. Use in growth. Bcoz it retains nucleo-cytoplasmic ratio.

hairy ears are caused by a gene on the y chromosome. if a male with hairy ears had children, what would be the expected phenotyp
nevsk [136]

Y-linked genes are linked to the Y chromosome. They are not as usual as the X-linked genes and can only be expressed by men or males. Sons' phenotype: 100% hairy ears. Daughters' phenotype: 100% not hairy ears.

<h3>What are sex-liked genes?</h3>

When talking about sex-linked genes, we refer to genes located in one of the sex chromosomes.

Being linked to one of the sex chromosomes means that these genes, and their corresponding alleles, will only be inherited together with the chromosome.

In general, genes are linked to the X chromosome. These are X-linked genes. In these cases, a male that inherits the X chromosome from a heterozygous female can express either the dominant or the recessive trait, depending on which allele it got from the mother.

However, some genes are linked to the Y chromosome and hence, inherited only by males or men. Traits coded by Y-linked genes will only be inherited by males.

In the exposed example, we are referring to an Y-linked gene, so it will only be inherited by sons and not daughters.

  • Expected phenotypes of the man's sons ⇒ 100% haired ears
  • Expected phenotypes of the man's daughter ⇒ 100% not haired ears

Research the process of erythropoiesis, and explain the role erythropoietin plays. Why is this a popular "doping" drug for athle
Ahat [919]

Answer: Erythropoiesis is the process which produces red blood cells (erythrocytes). It is stimulated by decreasing oxygen in circulation detected by the kidney which then secrete erythropoietin that proliferate and differentiate red blood precursors & produce red blood cells.

Explanation: The use of erythropoietin to boost red blood cells is called blood doping. The more red blood cells are present in the body, the more the energy expenditure and the slower you will burn calories during physical activities.
