Prokaryotes divide by binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction in which a cell divides into two cells with identical genetic information.

Explanation:

Binary fission and mitosis can be viewed as the same principle of asexual reproduction to give out two identical cells. However, the major difference between the two is that binary fission is to prokaryotes and mitosis is to eukaryotes. Remember that prokaryotes do not have a true nucleus (they have a nucleoid) hence binary fission does not involve the dividing of the nucleus. Mitosis does.

Sexual reproduction is responsible for creating variation in offspring especially due to the process of meiosis in gamete development and subsequent fertilization of two gametes from different parents.

Which statements correctly describe the inheritance pattern for the alleles that control blood type? Check all that apply. IA is

Korolek [52]

Explanation:

both IA and IB are dominant- A and B groups show co-dominance

Inheritance describes the way in which certain traits are passed onto offspring of sexual reproduction. For co-dominance, both of a gene's alleles are present, and notable in the phenotype.

Blood glycoprotein alleles are crucial to blood type determination for the ABO system in humans- i does not lead to modifications, while IA leads to the modification of adding N-acetylgalactosamine to the H-antigen on red blood cells; and IB adds galactose

$I_{A} I_{B}$ = blood type AB while $I_{A} I_{A}$ = blood type A while $I_{B} I_{B}$ = blood type B. Since $I_{A} I_{B}$ are both dominant over ii, those with that allele have blood type O.

The nucleus is a large membrane-bound organelle that houses the genetic information, DNA, in the cell. Sequences of DNA make up genes which can have different forms called alleles and comprise the genotype. DNA is transcribed into mRNA and later translated into amino acids which are linked together by rRNA to form proteins. These proteins, when expressed, are referred to as an organism's phenotype.
