In which phase(s) of mitosis do the chromosomes contain a single strand of dna?
Dovator [93]
Mitosis occurs in the nucleus and forms 2 identical cells; it is a continuous process, but can be subdivided into 4 phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase; the resulting cells are exact duplicates (clones) of the parent cell.  All DNA is double stranded but if it’s meant a single molecule of DNA, it happens in metaphase. Each chromosome makes a copy of itself during DNA synthesis wherein the original chromosome and its copy are joined together. This complete structure is called a chromosome. The two parts (original chromosome and its copy) are called chromatids. At metaphase the two chromatids begin to separate. Each chromatid, once separated, is renamed a chromosome and consists of single DNA molecule.

What is the main difference between the two main types of proteins associated with the plasma membrane?
Elis [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Biological membranes have three primary functions: (1) they keep toxic substances out of the cell; (2) they contain receptors and channels that allow specific molecules, such as ions, nutrients, wastes, and metabolic products, that mediate cellular and extracellular activities to pass between organelles and between the

In humans, the eye color and hair color genes are located on different chromosomes. Brown eyes (B) are dominant to blue (b), and
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Man's genotype: Bbdd

Woman's genotype: bbDd

First child's genotype: Bbdd

Second child's genotype: bbDd

Explanation:

This is a dihybrid cross involving two genes; one coding for eye color and the other for hair color in humans. The allele for brown eye (B) is dominant over the allele for blue eyes (b) in the first gene while the allele for dark hair (D) is dominant over the allele for red hair (d) in the second gene.

According to the question, A man with brown eyes and red hair will possibly possess genotypes: BBdd or Bbdd while a woman with blue eyes and dark hair will possibly have genotype: bbDD or bbDd. Considering the fact that they produced children with recessive traits for both gene (blue eyes and red hair), it means that they are heterozygous for their dominant trait. This means that the ideal genotype for the man is Bbdd since he will produce gametes containing B and b alleles for the first gene while the ideal genotype for the woman is bbDd since it will produce gametes with D and d allele for the second gene.

Hence, a child with brown eyes and red hair will possess genotype: Bbdd since he/she cannot receive two dominant alleles for the first gene from both parents. A child with blue eyes and dark hair will have genotype: bbDd since he/she cannot receive two dominant alleles of the second gene from both parents.
