In the ABO series, the gene for blood type O is , while A and B are genes, and AB is .
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Gene for blood type O is recessive

Gene for blood type A and B is dominant

Gene for blood type AB is neither dominant nor recessive but a form of co-dominance

Explanation:

In the ABO blood group,  

A and B are dominant genes, O is recessive genes.  

So the different genotype and its corresponding phenotype is as follows –  

Genotype    Phenotype

AO     A

BO     B

AB     AB

AA     A

BB     B

OO     O

Hence, the two alleles AB occur and express together. Therefore, AB blood group is an example of co-dominance.  

Blood type also varies with the presence of Rh factor. If Rh factor is present, the blood type will represented with a “+” symbol. And if Rh factor is absent, the blood type will be represented by “-“symbol.

Explain in detail about Phospholipid Bilayer.
erica [24]

A phospholipid bilayer or lipid bilayer is a double layer of lipids in a cell membrane which has a hydrophobic and a hydrophilic part.

Hydrophobic - expelled by water

Hydrophilic - attracted to water

The layers form the cell membrane which means that it's functions are the same as the functions of a cell membrane, and are critic to the cells functioning.

A chemical is reported to inhibit bacterial replication. Bacterial cells are placed in medium with all nutrients necessary for r
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

DNA ligases are enzymes required for replication, repair, and recombination of DNA molecules. The DNA ligase repairs the break in the DNA molecule by the formation of a phosphodiester bond.  

The bacterial genome consists of a circular DNA molecule, thereby laboratories use these enzymes to create recombinant DNA molecules

Alternate forms of a gene that lead to alternative traits are called
Savatey [412]
The answer is alleles.  In addition, the phenotype of an organism is the physical look resulting from the expression of the genes present. The principle of segregation states that substitute alleles for a trait discrete from one another throughout gamete formation and keep on distinct. A diploid organism that has two alike alleles for the same trait is named homozygous for that particular trait.
