Answer: A (AA x aa)

Explanation:

In option (A) both of the parent mussels are homozygotes, for alleles "a" and "A" respectively. Therefore, every single one (100%) of their offspring would be expected to be Aa heterozygotes. Combinations (B) and (D) yield a lower proportion of heterozygotes (50%), and combination (C) yields none at all. Punnett squares follow:

(A)

<u>   |  A      A        </u>

<u>a |  aA    aA      </u>

<u>a |  aA    aA      </u>

<u />

(B)

<u>   |  A      a       </u>

<u>A |  AA   Aa     </u>

<u>a |  aA    aa      </u>

<u />

(C)

<u>   |   A      A        </u>

<u>A |  AA    AA     </u>

<u>A |  AA    AA     </u>

<u />

(D)

<u>   |  A      a        </u>

<u>a |  aA    aa       </u>

<u>a |  aA    aa      </u>

<u />

How does the Digestive system help maintain homeostasis?
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

The bacterial flora in the intestines are essential to homeostasis in the body, they not only break down food so the nutrients can be absorbed, they produce vitamins like biotin and vitamin K and guard against harmful bacteria that enter the system. While your heart is a vital organ, the brain (and the nervous system that attaches to the brain) make up the most critical organ system in the human body. The digestive system ordinarily gets 20% to 25% of the oxygenated blood pumped out by the heart and the receptors in muscles provide the brain with information about body position and movement, the brain controls the contraction of skeletal muscle the nervous system regulates the speed at which food moves through the digestive tract.

1) Cuál es la diferencia que existe entre sustitución, Inserción y deleción en las mutaciones
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

See the answer below please.

Explanation:

There are different types of mutations:

- Substitutions: the exchange of one base for another occurs (eg changes a C for an A), which could lead to a codon change that codes for a different amino acid causing changes in nascent protein, generating a codon that codes for the same amino acid without any change in nascent protein; generate a different codon for the amino acid: a stop codon and cause an incomplete protein to form.

-Insertions: base pairs are added to the DNA sequence.

-Deletions: base pairs are removed from the DNA sequence.
