Answer:

The ZW is the sex-determination system for offsprings for some organisms such as birds, some reptiles etc.

According to this system, the females have the sex chromosomes Z and W. Males have the sex chromosome ZZ.

Females have a greater chance for expressing a recessive phenotype because they will need only one recessive allele on their Z chromosomes to express the recessive phenotype. On the contrary, males will have a lesser chance because in order to show the recessive phenotype they would require both the alleles on the Z chromosomes to be recessive.

What is the association between tropomyosin and troponin molecules in resting striated muscle fibers?
ryzh [129]
The correct answer is that "t<span>roponin holds the tropomyosin in place on the actin".

In excitation-contraction coupling, tropomyosin prevents the interaction between actin and myosin in resting muscles. In the event of excitation, there is release of calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum wherein the troponin will bind this calcium and will release tropomyosin and expose myosin enabling it to attach to actin and therefore facilitating muscle contraction.</span>
