The correct answer is hydrolysis.

Hydrolysis refers to a chemical reaction in which water is utilized to dissociate the bonds of a specific substance. In practical terms, hydrolysis signifies the work of distinguishing chemicals when water is added.

Hydrolysis can also be considered as the reverse reaction to condensation that is the method in which two molecules merge to produce one bigger molecule.

A cross between two squash plants that produce yellow squash results in 124 offspring: 93 produce yellow squash and 31 produce g
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

<h2>Both Yy</h2>

Explanation:

1. As  given here,

Total offspring are= 124;

that produce yellow squash= 93;

that  produce green squash= 31;

2. Let Y  for yellow producing squash and y for green squash;

Y is dominant over y.

3. Cross between two yellow squash producing plants

Genotype of parents = Yy and Yy

offspring = YY, Yy, Yy and yy,

as Y is dominant over y, so YY and Yy all produce yellow squash, and yy  produce green squash.

4. Their phenotypic ratio is 3:1 , as in question 93: 31

The body determines whether certain genes should be expressed or not. Sometimes genes are only turned on once or twice in a life
zmey [24]

The gene which is produced once or twice in a lifetime is the milk producing hormone after childbirth. This is because it is produced only after the birth of the child. The growth of the mammary glands takes place during pregnancy. The breast continue to increase in size after giving birth to a child. After delivery only copious milk is produced which is generally done with the help of milk hormone. During pregnancy the secretion of the milk is inhibited by the estrogen and progesterone which circulates in the blood stream which in turn inhibits the release of prolactin from the pituitary gland thus making the mammary glands unresponsive. Where as insulin is a hormone which helps the body to utilise the sugar or glucose from different sources like carbohydrates that we get while we eat food and adrenaline is secreted when we are scared or when we feel that we are in danger. Therefore, milk producing hormone is the gene that are turned once or twice in a lifetime.

BigorU [14]

Answer:

49

It says that there are eight four-base repeat unites that make up the remaining 32 bases. This means that it 8 x 4 = 32. Then from 32 + 9 = 41 is how you get all of the bases in the original. However, if there were to be 10 repeat units then it would be <u><em>10</em></u> x 4 = 40. Then from there you would get 40 + 9 = 49. Hope my explanation helped somewhat.

11.) When you catch a cold, your body tights the
nignag [31]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Explanation:

Viruses cause problems when they enter the body and begin to grow and reproduce. They can have byproducts that are harmful. Strep throat for example gives off substances that cause inflammation in the throat. Some viruses can cause serious issues such as nerve damage, like polio. So the immune system works to recognize and deal with cells that might cause harm.

The first time that a particular virus moves in and attacks the body, the immune system - and the white blood cells - might be slow to recognize the issue and take some time to swing into action. But the next time that particular germs shows up, the body is ready for it and reacts much more quickly. The body us designed this way so that harm by invading germs can be halted or minimized.

Hope this helps! Have an awesome day!! :-)
