All enzymes have an optimum temperature at which they work best. A large number of enzymes in the human body have an optimum tem

perature around 104°F. If the enzymes in the human body work best at 104°F, then why does the human body maintain a temperature of approximately 98.6°F?

When crossing two individuals, the offspring display only one of the two traits found in parents. Which principle of Mendelian g
Kipish [7]

Complete question:

Question: When crossing two individuals, the offspring display only one of the two traits found in parents. Which principle of Mendelian genetics is supported by this observation?

a) segregation

b) independent assortment

c) dominance and recessiveness

d) allele frequency

Answer:

c) dominance and recessiveness

Explanation:

According to Mendel's principle of dominance and recessiveness, the alleles of one gene may be dominant or recessive in nature. When present together, only the dominant allele is able to express itself. Therefore, a hybrid individual for a gene would express only the dominant phenotype. In the given cross, the progeny express only one of the two traits found in the parents. This means that the progeny is heterozygous for the trait and is expressing the dominant trait. The recessive trait is not expressed due to the presence of the allele for the dominant trait.

1. Bees, flies, wasps, butterflies, and moths are significant insect pollinators. Moths are drawn to white flowers that are open at night, but bees and butterflies are drawn to brilliantly colored blooms with powerful scents that are open during the day.

<h3>What is pollination?</h3>

The act of moving pollen grains from an anther to a flower's stigma is called pollination. Flowers that are pollinated by insects typically generate a sweet nectar that the insects visit to consume. If a flower is self-pollinating, fertilization occurs when pollen stock from an insect contacts the stigma of the bloom. If the bug is bisexual, it will fly to another bloom and disperse the pollen.

2. Most flowers advertise themselves by being brightly colored and perched on long stems so they wave in the air and are closer to where insects are flying, as opposed to on the ground, where they would otherwise be. A flower's petal sizes and shapes, in addition to color, can draw insects.

3. Flowers draw insects because of their aroma or vibrantly colored petals. Nectar is a delicious liquid that many flowers generate that is consumed by insects. The female part of the flower is the carpel.

Answer 2. Flowers that are pollinated by insects have characteristics that enable insects, birds, or other animals to pollinate them while consuming the nectar. When an insect brushes by the stigma of a flower, whether it is the same bloom or another, pollen grains will adhere to the insect's outer layer and stick to the flower's stigma, pollinating the flower. When the two seˣ cells combine, fertilization occurs, the ovule develops into a seed, and the ovary becomes a fruit. The pollen grain then grows a pollen tube down the style to reach the ovary, which contains the ovules.

The mutation rate is the probability of a single gene mutating in an offspring bug.
Ilya [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A mutation is any alteration in the genetic sequence of the genome of a particular organism. Mutations in the germline (i.e., gametes) can pass to the next generation, thereby these mutations can increase their frequency in the population if they are beneficial or 'adaptive' for the organism in the environment in which the organism lives (in this case, an insect/bug). The mutation rate can be defined as the probability of mutations in a single gene/<em>locus</em>/organism over time. Mutation rates are highly variable and they depend on the organism/cell that suffers the mutation (e.g., prokaryotic cells are more prone to suffer mutations compared to eukaryotic cells), type of mutations (e.g., point mutations, fragment deletions, etc), type of genetic sequence (e.g., mitochondrial DNA sequences are more prone to suffer mutations compared to nuclear DNA), type of cell (multicellular organisms), stage of development, etc. Thus, the mutation rate is the frequency by which a genetic sequence changes from the wild-type to a 'mutant' variant, which is often indicated as the number of mutations <em>per</em> round of replication, <em>per</em> gamete, <em>per</em> cell division, etc. In a single gene sequence, the mutation rate can be estimated as the number of <em>de novo</em> mutations per nucleotide <em>per</em> generation. For example, in humans, the mutation rate ranges from 10⁻⁴ to 10⁻⁶ <em>per </em>gene <em>per</em> generation.
