Answer:

1) The study of heredity is important to determine which traits or characteristics will be passed on from parent to children. It helps us to determine the probability or chance of a disease to occur in children.

2) Yes, we can predict the genotype outcome of an offspring if we have an idea about the genome of the parents. We determine the genotype of the parents and can known about the genotype of the children by constructing a punnet square.

3) The genotype and phenotype are alike by the fact that the genotype will be responsible for developing a particular phenotype. They are different because genotype reflects the genetic makeup of the person. Phenotype reflects the physical characteristics or traits of a person.

PLEASE HELP ASAP<br><br> how does the ribosome read the mRNA?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

A ribosome is made up of two basic pieces: a large and a small subunit. During translation, the two subunits come together around a mRNA molecule, forming a complete ribosome. The ribosome moves forward on the mRNA, codon by codon, as it is read and translated into a polypeptide (protein chain).
