<span>Sedimentation - uses solutions of lower specific gravity than the organisms, which concentrated in the sediment. This technique is recommended for general diagnostic laboratories because it is easy to perform and less prone to technical errors.

Flotation - this technique uses solutions of higher specific gravity than the parasitic organisms so the organisms float and the debris sinks producing a cleaner material while the disadvantage is that walls of cysts and eggs collapse that may blocking its identification.<span>

In mice, the allele for black fur is dominant to the allele for brown fur. a male homozygous black mouse is crossed with a femal

Darina [25.2K]

B- black allele;
b- brown allele;

The parental cross is true-breeding because both the male and the female are homo zygotes, so: BBx bb

The F1 generation will be all black heterozygote: Bb
The F2 generation will be between mice of the F1 generation and they all have the same genotype:Bb xBb
In this cross it would result in:
1/4 of the plants being black homozygote-BB 25%
2/4 of the plants being black heterozygote- Bb- 50%
1/4 of the plants being brown homozygote- bb- 25%
answer: 25%+25%=50% are homozygotes

Events that damage the cell's regulatory apparatus, trapping it in the G1 phase of the cell cycle, cause the uncontrolled divisi

Iteru [2.4K]

The answer is cancer.
Cancer is an uncontrolled division of cells. The regulation of cell cycle is necessary for normal cell division. The first phase of the cell cycle is the G1 phase. If the G1 phase is affected, mistakes in this process lead to the uncontrolled division of cells called cancer.
