A twin study was conducted to ascertain the genetic contribution to exam anxiety. It was found that in monozygotic twins the con

Answer:

A higher rate of concordance in monozygotic twins in comparison to dizygotic twins is a proved evidence of the contribution of the genetic constituent as monozygotic twins are genetically more identical in comparison to dizygotic twins. The monozygotic twins share all the genes in common and dizygotic twins on average share half of their genes in common.  

Thus, the concordance in monozygotic twins is more in comparison with that of dizygotic twins, which shows the contribution of genetics to this trait.

Exobiologists have discovered under the surface of Mars an alien species of single-celled organisms, which undergo sexual reprod
Llana [10]

Answer:

The dominant phenotypes are Long flagella and one vacuole, and the recessive phenotypes are small flagella and two vacuoles.

Explanation:

As you can see in the attached table

1. For the size of the flagella we gave that:

- 241 organisms have long flagella

- 79 organisms have short flagella,

As there are more organisms with long flagella we can conclude that this is the dominant phenotype while the short flagella is the recessive phenotype.

2. For the number of vacuole we have:

- 247 organisms have one vacuole

- 73 organisms have two vacuole

As there are more organisms with one vacuole we can conclude that this is the dominant phenotype while having two vacuoles a is the recessive phenotype.

Then

Dominant phenotypes = Long flagella and one vacuole

Recessive phenotypes = Short flagella and two vacuoles
