The one part of the nucleotide that differs among the other different nucleotides is the nitrogenous base.

<h2>Further Explanation;</h2><h3>Nucleic Acids</h3>

Nucleic acids are one of the four major bio-molecules in nature. Nuclei acids is divided into two; RNA and DNA.

<h3>Nucleotides</h3>
  • The building blocks of nucleic acids are Nucleotides which are made by a nitrogenous base which is specific to each nucleotide, a sugar and a phosphate group.

The main nucleotides are;

  • Adenine
  • Guanine
  • Cytosine
  • Thymine
  • Uracil (RNA)
<h3>DNA </h3>
  • DNA is a nucleic acid that is responsible for carrying genetic information in living organisms.
  • It is through DNA that genetic information is passed from one organism to another through the process of DNA replication.
  • Additionally, it carries the information that is used to make proteins which performs various functions in living cells.
  • Each Nucleotide in DNA contains a nitrogenous base, a deoxyribose sugar, and a phosphate group.
  • DNA molecules are made up of nitrogenous bases; Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine.
<h3>RNA</h3>
  • Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a type of nucleic acid, a molecule that plays a major role in the flow of information from the DNA to the proteins. For a gene to be expressed information has to be passed through the RNA.
  • Each nucleotide in RNA contains a nitrogenous base, a ribose sugar, and a phosphate group.
  • Nucleotides in RNA includes; Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and uracil. Thymine in DNA is replaced with Uracil.

Keywords: DNA, RNA, Nucleotides

Aside from its nitrogen bases, all nucleotides are similar. The bases will either be adenine, cytosine, guanine, uracil, or thymine.

A cross between two individuals that are heterozygous for eye and skin color would be an example of a _____ cross.
8090 [49]

A cross between individuals that are heter0zyg0us for two different traits is a dihybrid cross. <em>A cross between two individuals that are heterozygous for eye and skin color would be an example of a _</em>dihybrid<em>_ cross.</em>

----------------------

Dihybrid crosses involve individuals that expresses two different traits and are heter0zyg0us for each of them.

So let us imagine we are studing the characters eye color and skin color. Let us assume that both of them are coded by single diallelic genes.

For eye color there is

  • Dominant allele B that codes for brown eyes
  • Recessive allele b that codes for blue eyes

For skin color there is

  • Dominant allele A that codes for black skin
  • Recessive allele a that codes for white skin

So, an individual that is heter0zyg0us for both of them, is BbAa.

If this person crosses to another person with the same genotype, we are talking about a <u>dihybrid cross</u>, because two dibybrid individuals are involved.

                             Cross:    BbAa      x      BbAa

According to this information, we can aswer the question:

<em>When crossing two individuals that are heterozygous for eye and skin color we are referring to a</em><em> dihybrid cross.</em>
