Answer: Osmosis
Explanation:
"Water makes up a large percentage of the body's cells. For a cell to remain in homeostasis, there must be a mechanism to control water changes in the cells. The movement of water from an area of high water concentration to an area of low water concentration is osmosis." Source, Quizlet. https://quizlet.com/350562884/cell-homeostasis-flash-cards/
Answer:
alleles-one of two or more alternative forms of a gene that arise by mutation and are found at the same place on a chromosome.
dominant- The dominant allele of the gene is inherently dominant,so it hides the presence of the recessive allele
heterozygous-having two different alleles of a particular gene or genes.
homozygous-a particular gene that has identical alleles on both homologous chromosomes
recessive-A recessive gene is a gene that can be masked by a dominant gene
The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:
Functions of astrocytes include all of the following, except
A) performing repairs in damaged neural tissue.
B) guiding neuron development.
C) functioning in action potential transmission.
D) maintaining the blood-brain barrier.
E) creating a three-dimensional framework for the CNS.
Answer:
Functioning in action potential transmission.
Explanation:
Astrocytes may be defined as the glial type star shaped cells present in the central nervous system. They envelope the synapse and can function with millions of neuron at a time.
Astrocytes are involved in the structural support in the brain and can repair the damaged and wear nerves tissue. Their main function is acting as blood brain barrier. The action potential transmission is mainly done by neurons and not by the astrocytes cells.
Thus, the correct answer is option (c).
If B and b are the two alleles , B + b = 1 and B ^2 +2 Bb + b ^2 = 1.
If 16% of mice are homozygous black , B ^ 2 =0 .16, meaning B = 0 .4 and b = 1 - 0. 4 = 0 .6 .
Answer = Notice how you don't even need to know that 24% of the mice are heterozygous .
