The ability to roll the tongue in humans is coded by the dominant allele R. The inability to roll the tongue is coded by the rec

essive allele r. A man with an RR allele combination for the trait produces a zygote with a woman with an rr allele combination for the trait. Which allele combination could occur in the zygote?
RR

Rr

The allele combination that could occur in the zygote is Rr.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A diploid parent contributes one allele of a gene to the gamete. Thus the gametes in human reproduction will be haploid so as to maintain the diploid nature of the zygote. In the given question both parents are homozygous and the inheritance follows Mendel’s laws.

The dominant allele is represented by the letter R and the recessive allele is represented by the letter r. One parent is homozygous dominant which means both the alleles in that parent is dominant and the genotype will be RR. The other parent is homozygous recessive with the genotype rr.

The cross can be represented as  

RR   \times     rr

Rr     Rr      Rr      Rr

All the progenies will have the genotype Rr and will be dominant and possess the ability to roll the tongue.

Which Molecules I needed to cut and copy segment in DNA
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Biological catalyst has to be cut.

Explanation:

  • Enzymes are called "Biological catalyst".
  • Enzymes are called Biological catalysts because they diminish the activation energy for reactions. As the activation energy is reduced the rate of reaction is increased.
  • Many enzymes modify their state when substrates bind and it is known as "Induced fit".
  • Enzymes are nothing but Protein(Biological molecules). Most of the biological reactions are catalyzed by Protein.
  • Enzymes improve the rate of synthetic reactions without getting altered forever by the reaction.
  • For this reason Biological catalyst are needed to be cut and copy segemnte in DNA.

Which statement best shows the relationship of the concepts of evolution and natural selection? Explain how you got your answer.
RideAnS [48]

b. Natural selection is an example of the major mechanism by which evolution occurs

Explanation:

The concept of evolution are both closely related in that natural selection is the major mechanism by which evolution occurs. This was proposed by Charles Darwin after his journey to the Galapagos Island on the HMS Beagle.

  • Evolution is the change in the characteristics of an organism over several generations.
  • Organisms evolved to in order to be at an advantage and naturally favored.
  • According to Charles Darwin, organisms evolved by the process of natural selection.
  • Natural selection is the process by which an organism becomes adapted to its environment.
  • Organisms with desirable trait are naturally favored with competitive and reproductive advantage in the environment.
