What is homeostasis? How do cells use both diffusion and osmosis to help maintain homeostasis?
arlik [135]

Answer:

Osmosis is the process cells use to move water molecules in and out of the cell through the cell membrane. When cells are put in different environments they will try to maintain an equilibrium with the water concentration outside the cell. Through osmosis the cell will lose or gain water molecules to become equal to the concentration in their environment.

In Betta fish, colored bodies (B) are dominant to white bodies (b), and blue tails (T) are dominant to black tails (t). A Betta
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

0

Explanation:

This question involves two genes in Betta fish; one coding for body color and the other coding for tail colour. The allele for colored body (B) is dominant over the allele for white body (b) in the first gene while allele for blue tail (T) is dominant over allele for black tail (t) in the second gene.

Thus, in a cross between a Betafish that is homozygous dominant for both genes (BBTT) and homozygous recessive for both genes (bbtt), each parent will produce only one type of gamete combination

BBTT- BT

bbtt- bt

Using this in a punnet square, all offsprings will possess a genotype: BbTt.

Since alleles B and T are dominant, a Bettafish with genotype BbTt will be phenotypically color-bodied and blue-tailed.

Hence, according to the question, the probability of producing an offspring with white body and blue tails will be O since no offspring has such genotype.
