Answer:

Inherited characteristic.

Explanation:

When the offspring has a characteristic identical to parents and siblings, we call this characteristic inheritable.

Science explains this from the genes, responsible for encoding instructions that define the baby's traits. Like a lottery, the transmission of physical characteristics will depend on the combination of genes. There are more than 200 genes passed on from generation to generation. In this group, there are dominant, traits that manifest themselves more strongly, and recessive characteristics that do not manifest themselves.

Thus, it is possible to understand, for example, the predominance of the color of the father's brown eyes, compared to the mother's blue ones. If the brown color gene received from the father is the dominant one, the blue color will be "forgotten". In order to have blue eyes, given that the gene is recessive, it is necessary that not only the father, but the couple have the gene for blue eyes and that at the crossing this gene is captured from both.

Answer:

When an offspring's trait is identical to the parent and it's siblings, we say that it is a n inherited trait.

Explanation:

Inherited traits are when you get features from your parents which are passed on to your genes.

mendel realized that the principles of probability could used to blank the results of genetic crosses.
Degger [83]
Hey my friend did this one on Answer.com 
<span>
Whenever Mendel performed a cross with pea plants, he carefully categorized and counted the many offspring. Every time Mendel repeated a particular cross, obtained similar results. For example, whenever Mendel crossed two plants that were hybrid for stem height (Tt), about three fourths of the resulting plants were tall and about one fourth were short. Mendel realized that the principles of probability could be used to explain the results of genetic crosses.</span>

In a food chain 200 kg of wheat is fed on by 18 kg of mice which in turn are eaten by 1kg of hawk. What is the percentage energy
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

0.1% of energy

Explanation:

Energy flow: From the whole quantity of energy that reaches the earth's surface, autotroph organisms or producers absorb only 0.1 or 1%.

From the input of solar energy begins a unidirectional energy flow through all the organisms in the ecosystem, from autotrophs to heterotrophs, until it is dissipated in the environment.  

At each trophic level occurs an energy transfer to the next, with only 10% being usable in each of them. This assessment is called "The 10% rule". As a general rule, only about 10% of the energy stored as biomass at one trophic level, per unit time, ends up as biomass at the next trophic level, in the same unit of time.

If wheat transferred 10% of the energy to mice, and of that 10% mice transferred 10% of the energy to hawk, then the percentage of energy transferred from the first trophic level to the third equals 0.1%.

10% (1st TL-2nd TL) / 10% (2nd TL - 3rd TL) = 0.1% (1stTL - 3rd TL)

<em>TL = Trophic level           </em>

On-center cells: A. are excited by light that falls in the periphery of their receptive field. B. are excited by light that fall
Elena L [17]

Answer: B) are excited by light that falls in the center of their receptive field.

Explanation:

There are two types of bipolar cells present in the retina which are differentiated on the way the centres of their receptive fields respond to light. The names of bipolar cells are ON-centre and OFF-centre.

If a light fall at the centre of the receptive field of a bipolar cell, it will experience an exciting effect on that cell, resulting in it being depolarized, it is an ON-center cell.

Hence, the correct option is B.

Why are embryonic stem cells useful for treating diseases
astraxan [27]
Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent cells that are derived from the inner cell mass of a blastocyst before implantation. These cells have potential of treating a wide range of diseases and conditions, which is attributed to the fact that they have; self renewal property meaning that they can ploriferate indefinitely, the cells also have the special ability to differentiate into cells with specialized characteristics and functions. In addition the cells are unspecialized and therefore they can give rise to specialized cells.
