Describe how genetic information is passed from parent to offspring

Biology
1 answer:
BaLLatris [955]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

There is no short answer.

Explanation:

During the reproduction, the DNA material from both of the parents are combined at a 50% to 50% ratio and this combination makes up the genotype of the offspring and this is how the genetic information gets passed on to the offspring from the parent.

I hope this answer helps.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

The correct answer is- phosphorus and sulfur

Explanation:

Hershey and Chase used radioactive phosphorus and sulfur to label T2 bacteriophage. Then they infected E.coli with these bacteriophage labeled with radioactive phosphorus and sulfur.

After infection, they centrifuge the cell and found that radioactive phosphorus is present in the bottom and radioactive sulfur in supernatant . As sulfur is mostly the part of protein not  DNA and is found in supernatant  and phosphorus is mostly present in DNA not protein which was found in cell debris, therefore, it was proved that DNA is the genetic material.

Fossils show that ancestors of the giraffe had shorter necks than the modern giraffe. The evolution of the modern giraffe may be
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

B. Directional selection

Explanation:

When natural selection starts to choose one phenotypes that is an extreme (as in, a really small neck or a really long neck), this is an example of <u>directional selection.</u> It makes sense for giraffes to have evolved this way, because the longer the neck, the more ably they can eat food from high branches. The more food they could get, the more chance of reproduction, the more "evolutionarily fit" they are.

Stabilizing selection is when national selection picks average phenotypes (like a medium-sized neck). Disruptive selection is when the extremes are both picked (like all the medium-sized neck giraffes die, and two different species start to emerge). Sexual selection is picking a mate based on traits. Clearly, those answers don't work here.
