"Autosomal dominant" patterns of inheritance best explains the transmission of the trait.

<u>Answer:</u> Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

In single-gene disorders there are several fundamental inheritance modes: autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, X-linked dominant and X-linked recessive. Nevertheless, these patterns will not be observed by all genetic conditions, and other unusual inheritance mechanisms such as mitochondrial inheritance occur.

Autosomal dominant is an inheritance pattern in which an individual affected has one xerox of a mutant gene and one normal gene on a pair of autosomal chromosomes. Autosomal dominant is one of many ways in which families may transmit a trait or disorder. If one get the abnormal gene from just one parent in an autosomal dominant disorder, than he/she can get the disease.

What information would be most relevant to determining the time of death?
Nuetrik [128]

Lividity can be defined as the typical bluish-purple discoloration of the skin after death. Rigor mortis can be defined as the postmortem state in which the muscles become stiff.

  • After death, the stomach contains identifiable ingested foods within two hours.

  • Rigor mortis is characterized by the stiffening of the body after death, which is caused by the absence of ATP in muscle tissues.

  • Postmortem lividity or livor mortis is caused by the accumulation of blood in blood vessels (the lack of arterial pressure) as a result of gravity.

  • The most relevant information to determine the time of death is the presence of lividity, rigor mortis, and/or stomach contents (Option c).

which statement best describes vascular tissue in seed plants xylem carries food produced by the leaves to the rest of the plant
laila [671]

Answer:

The statement that best describes the vascular tissue in seed plants is that xylem carries water and nutrients from the roots to the rest of the plant.

Explanation:

Xylem corresponds to the tissue of the vascular plants that is responsible for the transport and distribution of liquids necessary for their development.

The main function of xylem is to<u> carry water, mineral salts and other nutrients -in the form of raw sap- from the root to the whole plant</u>, forming a network similar to the circulatory system of higher animals.
