Answer:
DNA is like a ladder, it's structure is double helix much as the specific sequence on letters on base pairs are like single rung along the genetic ladder and sugar phosphate.
Explanation:
DNA or Deoxyribonucleic acids is a genetic material found in humans and other living organisms. It is located in the nucleus and sometimes it is found in the mitondondrial in small amount.
The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases; Adenine (A), Guanine (G) , thymine (T) and cytosine(C).
DNA replicates and make copies of it self. It is formed by based pairs attached to sugar phosphate.
Answer:
The question lacks options, the options are:
parents?
A.100% red/white-feather chickens.
B.50% white-feather chickens and 50% red/white-feather chickens.
C.33% white-feather chickens, 33% red-feather chickens, and 33% red/white-feather chickens.
D.25% white-feather chickens, 25% red-feather chickens, and 50% red/white-feather chickens
The Correct answer is D
Explanation:
According to the question, the hybrid chicken has a mixture of red and white feather phenotypes expressed at the same time. This tells us that the red and white alleles are CODOMINANT in the chicken i.e. none is dominant or recessive over the other.
Let's assume that (R) allele is the red feather colour while (r) allele is for white feather colour. Therefore, the red/white feathered chicken will have a Rr genotype. In a cross between two red/white feathered chicken (Rr), the following offsprings will be produced RR, Rr, Rr and rr
RR- Homozygous red feather d chicken (1/4 × 100=25%)
Rr- Hybrid Red/White feathered chicken (2/4 × 100=50%)
rr- Homozygous white feathered chicken (1/4 × 100=25%)
Answer:
B. osteoclasts
Explanation:
Osteoclasts counters the functions of the osteoblasts. Osteoblasts help
In bone formation while the osteoclasts when activated triggers the production of digestive enzymes which dissolved the bones and reduces its density.
Answer:
the magnetic direction of rocks along the surface of Earth and the age of rocks along the surface of Earth
Explanation:
The earth's magnetic field or geomagnetic field is believed to originate from the movement of molten iron and nickel in the outer core.
During a period in which the earth magnetic field is normal, crystallising magnetic minerals in magma records the orientation of the prevailing geomagnetic field. At other times when the field reverses and the magnetic field orientation changes, magnetic minerals in cooling magma stores this record.
To create a geomagnetic time scale, geologists can assign absolute ages to the records of these paleomagnetic anomalies which are the reversals. The rock is dated using radiometric techniques and each period of reversal is ascribed an absolute geologic age. Therefore, the magnetic direction of rocks along the surface of Earth and the age of rocks along the surface of Earth helps to build the geomagnetic time scale of the earth.

Y: Mass extinction
