Answer: 50% of offspring can roll their tongues

Explanation:

Since tongue rolling is a dominant trait, if the father is heterozygous for it, his genotypes could be Tt, since he has a the dominant allele for tongue rolling, this means he can roll his tongue

Since the mother is homozygous recessive, this means she cannot roll her tongue, her genotype is tt

If you do a punnet square and you cross the mom and dad, the offspring will have the following genotypes:

Tt, tt, Tt, tt

50% of the offspring will be heterozygous for tongue rolling, which means they will be able to roll their tongues as they have the dominant allele.

While the other 50% will not have the tongue rolling trait because they will be homozygous recessive and not have the dominant allele

50% will be heterozygous dominant, 50% will be homozygous recessive. This was according to a traditional Punnett square.

Explain the difference between sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction. Explain either an advantage or disadvantage for
ira [324]

In asexual reproduction, reproductive organs aren't used but they're used.

advantage of sexual- A lot of genetic variation. since they have DNA of two parents. they can survive more and adapt more.

disadvantage of asexual- diversity is limited. Since the organism only gets the DNA of one parent, they wouldn't be able to really survive if something happened.They would easily be extinct.

Sorry I can't really cone up with better words but I hope you get the idea. it all comes down to natural selection really if you've learned about it. Hope it helped!!!

A. How many cells are present at the beginning of mitosis?
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The answer is one cell.

Mitosis is a cell division of a single cell into two identical daughter cells. So, at the beginning of mitosis, there is only one cell. It will undergo different stages of mitosis (prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase and cytokinesis) which will result in the formation of two daughter cells that are identical to the mother cells.

Explanation:

Hope this helps:)

Are viruses living organisms
viva [34]

Answer:

No. Viruses are not living organisms.

Explanation:

Viruses are not living things. Viruses are complicated assemblies of molecules, including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates, but on their own they can do nothing until they enter a living cell. Without cells, viruses would not be able to multiply. Therefore, viruses are not living things.
