For two autosomal dominant genes, what is the probability that a cross between two heterozygotes (i.e. AaBb x AaBb) will produce

an offspring with the recessive trait for both genes?

Answer:

1 in 16

Explanation:

When two heterozygotes (AaBb x AaBb) for two autosomal genes are crossed the expected probability for the offspring is 9 A-B-, 3 A-bb, 3 aaB- and 1 aabb. In other words, out of sixteen offspring, 9 are expected to be dominant on both genes (either homozygous AA or BB or heterozygous Aa or Bb), 3 are expected to be dominant on the A gene but recessive on the b gene, 3 are expected to be recessive on the a gene but dominant on the A gene, and only 1 is expected to be recessive on both genes aabb.

A sodium-potassium pump within a cell membrane requires energy to move sodium and potassium ions into or out of a cell. The move
Anna71 [15]
The correct answer is: Sodium and potassium ions move by active transport, and glucose moves by facilitated diffusion.

Because sodium and potassium are moved through cell membrane against their concentration gradients, transport requires energy (ATP), so it is active. <span>Glucose is a polar molecule and because the plasma membrane is impermeable to polar molecules transport of this important nutrient is accomplished by carrier proteins. This process is called facilitated diffusion and it is passive transport (doesn’t require energy).</span>
