Additional detail found elsewhere: (T = Tall and t = short)

Answer:

All are expected to be tall

Explanation:

We are told that the T allele produces the tall trait, and the t allele produces the short trait.

Because the tall allele is denoted by an uppercase letter, it means it is the dominant allele, meaning if it is present even in one copy, the trait will be expressed. This is in contrast to the recessive short allele, 2 copies are needed for the trait to be expressed.

Individuals have 2 copies of every gene. Offspring that are TT, Tt, TT, and Tt all have at least one copy of the T (tall allele). Because this is the dominant allele, that means all of these offspring would be expected to be tall.

In humans, the hormone testosterone enters cells and binds to specific proteins, which in turn bind to specific sites on the cel
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

As a transcription factor

Explanation:

Testosterone is a male sex hormone secreted by the testicles which promote the growth of the male reproductive organs and the male characters like muscle buildup.

The hormone shows the paracrine effect and thus act on the target cell at distant. The mechanism of action of the testosterone is that it controls the gene expression of various other genes.

The testosterone binds the specific proteins which activate the expression of the gene that is they acts as a transcription factor which activates the expression.  

Thus, as a transcription factor is correct.

Assume that an organism exists in which crossing over does not occur, but that all other processes associated with meiosis occur
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Option (e).

Explanation:

Meiosis may be defined as the process of cell division in which a single parent cell divides into four daughter cells. The chromosome number reduces to half in meiosis.

Crossing over is the process of exchange of genetic material between the homologous chromosomes of the non-sister chromatids. Crossing over will bring variation in the gametes. Hence, the absence of crossing over results in the formation of gametes with less genetic variation.

Thus, the correct answer is option (e).

Why would chemical weathering affect the kinds of minerals in soil as the soil is formed??
Vilka [71]
Process by which the internal structure of a mineral is altered by the addition or removal of elements. Change in phase (mineral type) and composition are due to the action of chemical agents. Chemical weathering is dependent on available surface for reaction temperature and presence of chemically active fluids.
