What are 2<br> factors that prevents joints from rubbing and wearing down your bones
inessss [21]
A layer of smooth cartilage at their ends, which cushions the bones and prevents them from rubbing directly against one another. The whole joint is also enclosed in a synovial capsule, which is full of synovial fluid. The synovial fluid acts like the oil in an engine, lubricating the joint and preventing the cartilage from becoming worn down.

A plant has the genotype AAbbCcDDEeff, where each letter represents a different gene. This plant is crossed with another whose g
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

The fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele is 1024/4096 = 0.25 A-BbccDdE-Ff = 25%

Explanation:

You can calculate the fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele by making the punnet square for each gene and then multipling the phenotypic proportions, like this:

Cross) AAbbCcDDEeff     x      AaBBCcddEEFF

Cross For each gene by separately:

  • Parental )        AA    x    Aa

       Gametes)  A    A         A    a

        F1)             2/4 AA  

                          2/4 Aa

  • Parental )        bb    x    BB

         Gametes)  b    b         B   b

          F1)                   4/4 Bb

  • Parental )        Cc    x    Cc

        Gametes)  C    c         C    c

         F1)             1/4 CC

                           2/4 Cc

                            1/4 cc

  • Parental )        DD    x    dd

       Gametes)  D    D          d    d

        F1)             4/4 Dd

  • Parental )        Ee    x    EE

        Gametes)     E     e      E     E

         F1)             2/4 Ee

                           2/4 EE

  • Parental )        ff    x    FF

         Gametes)     f     f      F     F

          F1)             4/4 Ff

So, fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele is:

4/4 A-  x  4/4 Bb   x   1/4 cc   x   4/4 Dd   x  4/4 E-   x   4/4 Ff =  

1024/4096 = 0.25 A-BbccDdE-Ff =25%

Groups of cells that are similar in structure and perform a common or related function form a(n) ________.
ankoles [38]

Answer: tissue

Explanation:

All living organisms are made up of one or more cells. For example, unicellular organisms, such as amoebas, are made up of only one cell. Multicellular organisms, such as human beings, are made up of many cells. And cells in complex multicellular organisms  are organized into tissues,  which refers to similar groups of cells that work together on a specific task.
