"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.

vodomira [7]

Answer:

Transcription of gene A is not affected

Explanation:

A transcriptional repressor is a DNA/RNA-binding protein that acts to suppress gene expression and/or protein synthesis by binding to target sequences. Moreover, a silencer is a DNA region that binds to particular transcriptional repressors in order to suppress gene expression. In this case, the transcriptional repressor is activated by binding to an effector molecule X (e.g., another protein). In consequence, and since the activated repressor-X complex is not more able to bind the silencer of gene A, it is expected that such complex will not be able to affect transcription of the target gene.

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

community

Explanation:

Community refers to a group of populations of different species that live together in a defined habitat. These species exhibit interdependence for one or other resources. It is a level of the ecological organization just above the population and consists of hundreds of different types of organisms of various species.

Butterflies and flowering plants belong to different species. Butterflies are dependent on these plants for food. Therefore, these two together represent two populations of different species living together in habitat and are an ecological community.
