Answer: Codominance.

Explanation:

Codominance is a relationship between two parts of a gene. Offspring get one part of a gene, known as an allele from each parent. When the alleles are different, a dominant allele is usually expressed and the effect of the allele is usually covered or masked which is recessive. However, when Codominance occurs, neither of the alleles is recessive and phenotypes of both alleles are expressed.

In the above case, mating the yellow and white corn by the farmer resulted in offsprings that have nearly an even mix of both white and yellow corn. This is known as Codominance because no allele appeared to be recessive. The phenotype of both the alleles for yellow and white corn are expressed in the offsprings.

As a character of all living things, homeostasis relates most directly to which of the following biological themes
Novosadov [1.4K]

Explanation:

As a characteristic of all living things, homeostasis relates most directly to which of the following biological themes?

A.) Interacting systems.

B.) Stability.

C.) Evolution.

D.) Scale and structure.

Correct: B.) Stability.

During homeostasis the body maintains a constant internal balance (stability) in pH, temperature, blood pressure etc. Cells in a multicellular organism become specialized for particular tasks and communicate with one another in order to maintain homeostasis.

Within the human body these are known as hormone cascades, where several complex steps occur- the tissues signal to one another with the use of hormones released by the endocrine system. The regulation (increase and decrease) of these secretions is achieved by negative feedback loops, where the release of certain substances during a cascade in turn halts the secretion of hormones at earlier stages.

Can you tell the difference between the original and the replicated strand
kati45 [8]

Answer:

Original strand is the old strand and replicated strand is new strand.

Explanation:

DNA is replicated by the semi-conservative way which means the new strand is replicated over the old strand and one DNA duplex has one new strand and one old strand. So the original strand is the old strand and the replicated strand is the strand that is synthesized over the original strand.

In DNA the replicated strand is made by adding nucleotides complementary to the opposite nucleotide present in the template or original strand. Adenine and thymine make complementary base pairing with each other and guanine and cytosine makes complementary base pairing with each other.
