I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option E. The pattern of inheritance for the corn kernel color would be polygenic. It <span>occurs when one characteristic is controlled by two or more genes. Often the genes are large in quantity but small in effect. </span>

Outline why proteins are considered to be important biological molecules
Rasek [7]

proteins are one of the most abundant organic molecules in living systems and have the most diverse range of functions of all macro molecules. the functions of proteins are very diverse because there are 20 different chemically distinct amino acids that form long chains, and the amino acids can be in any order. For example, proteins can function as enzymes or hormones.

For this week's CRQ, you are to design your own genetic cross between a female and a male. Be sure to include each of the follow
svp [43]

Answer and Explanation:

Punnett squares are illustrations that display the product of hybrid trait crosses by genetic breeding. Established parent genotypes and phenotypes are used and are usually compatible with Mendelian ratios and inheritance. The phnomenon influencing this behaviour is the

  • Law of Segregation,
  • Law of Independent assortment
  • and Dominance

For this cross...

Assuming Widow's peak= dominant

<u> 1. What are the dominant and recessive traits in cross?</u>

Parent generation or P generation:

gametes: Ww → Widow's peak dominant (W), No Widow's peak recessive (w)

<u>2. Is the male homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous?</u>

Heterozygousity describes the allelic makeup; these traits are made of two different forms of the same gene.

Male: Ww  →  with the W.peak;  

(Thus, with both W and w this is a heterozygous trait)

<u>3. Is the female homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous?</u>

However, homozygous traits are made up of the same forms of the gene called alleles.

Female: ww → without the W.peak  

(Thus, with both w ad w this is a homozygous trait)

<u>1. genotypes and phenotypes for parent and offspring...</u>

<u></u>

Assuming heterozygousity of the male , for the cross

P generation:                          Ww× ww

                            Widow's peak  ×No Widow's peak  

F1 generation:

  • genotype:                       Ww × ww       ...(from punnet square)
  • phenotype:          2 with the W.peak; 2 without

<em>∴ 50% are genotypically heterozygous while 50% is homozygous , 2 with the W.peak; 2 without </em>

15. What is atherosclerosis?
Stolb23 [73]

Atherosclerosis refers to the build-up of fats and cholesterol in the walls of blood vessels (Option A).

<h3>What is atherosclerosis?</h3>

Atherosclerosis is a disease characterized by the build-up of fats and cholesterol in the walls of blood vessels.

This build-up of fats narrows the blood vessels, thereby difficulting the movement of blood in the bloodstream.

The symptoms of atherosclerosis include, among others, chest pain, shortness of breath and fatigue.
