Answer:

Though these genes are recessive, it is still very much possible for the offspring to inherit this, and the lethal gene is no different.

Explanation:

Suppose this animal breeder picked a dog who appeared to be happy and healthy and paired with another healthy dog. One of these healthy dogs may have this recessive lethal gene, though they have not been affected by it, their offspring may be likely to.

If our sensory systems are exposed to the same exact stimulus repeatedly, sometimes it causes our sensory systems to react and sometimes it has no effect. In some cases, it may have a reduction of sensitivity, but sometimes it has no effect to our sensory systems.

Which of the following is true of metabolism in its entirety in all organisms?
musickatia [10]

The correct answer is: C) Metabolism consists of all the energy transformation reactions in an organism.

Metabolism can be defined as the sum of all chemical reactions that occur in living organisms. The functions of metabolism include:  

• the conversion of food to energy necessary for proper cell function (transformation of the chemical energy stored in food molecules into energy that can be used for cellular processes)

•  the conversion of food to building blocks (amino acids, free fatty acids, nucleotides, monosaccharaides) for macromolecules (proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, carbohydrates)  

• the elimination of nitrogenous wastes.

Reactions of metabolism can be catabolic (breaking down) or anabolic (synthesis) and also spontaneous (energy release) and non-spontaneous (require energy).
