Answer: Option A and C.

Transport and receptor protein.

Explanation:

Membrane protein are pathway protein that control the flow of materials and information across the cell.

These proteins modify the cell response to the environment. Examples of membrane proteins are receptor and transport protein.

Receptor are protein that receive signal in the cell.

Transport protein are responsible for movement of ions,molecules or materials across the cell and its environment. These two proteins are responsible for modifying cell response to it's environment.

Where do prokaryotes carry out most cellular processes

In your cells, cellular respiration happens in a special organelle called the mitochondrion. But as mentioned, prokaryotic organisms don't have organelles. Rather than taking place in the mitochondrion, cellular respiration happens either in the cytoplasm or across the plasma membrane of the cell.

In Guinea pigs, short hair is dominant and long hair is recessive. A

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

a. S represents allele for short hair while s represents allele for long hair.

b. Ss (male) × ss (female)

c. 50% Ss, 50% ss

d. 3 long hair (ss), 3 short hair (Ss)

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for hair length in guinea pigs. The allele for short hair (S) is dominant over the allele for long hair (s).

a. Letter "S" will represent the allele for short hair while letter "s" will represent the allele for long hair.

b. According to this question, a heterozygous male is crossed with a long-haired female. The genotype of the male guinea pig is "Ss" while that of the female is "ss". (see attachment for the punnet square)

c. The possible genotypes of the offsprings in this cross are: Ss and ss, each carrying 50% each as they are produced in a ½ Ss: ½ ss.

d. Since 50% of the offsprings will be both short haired and long haired, If they have six babies, 3 of them will be short-haired while 3 of them will also be long-haired.
