Polygenic dominates because it would be masked
Hypotonic, isotonic, hypertonic
these terms are connected to the solution concentration. hypotonic solution is the solution with low concentration (lower than the concentration of particles in the living cell of an organism). if you put a cell in such solution, that cell would baloon because of the water migrating inside willing to rebalance the concentrations. isotonic solution is the solution with concentration of particles equal to the concentration inside a cell. hypertonic solution has concentration of particles higher than a cell and putting cell in this solution makes it shrivelled because of the water flowing outside (willing to rebalance concentrations again).
that's a phenomenon of osmosis.
Answer:
Meiosis and Genetic Variation.
Explanation:
When homologous chromosomes form pairs during prophase I of meiosis I, crossing-over can occur. Crossing-over is the exchange of genetic material between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes. It results in new combinations of genes on each chromosome.
When cells divide during meiosis, homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed during anaphase I, separating and segregating independently of each other. This is called independent assortment. It results in gametes that have unique combinations of chromosomes.
In sexual reproduction, two gametes unite to produce an offspring. But which two of the millions of possible gametes will it be? This is likely to be a matter of chance. It is obviously another source of genetic variation in offspring. This is known as random fertilization.
Gregor Mendel was the father of the field of genetics, which seeks to explain how traits are passed on from one generation to the next.
To study genetics, Mendel chose to work with pea plants because they have easily identifiable traits.
