<span> COMPLETE DOMINANCE:
</span>
<span>Mendel concluded that some alleles are dominant and others are recessive. When one dominant allele is present, it's enough to make the recessive allele unexpressed (this is what happens in heterozygous individuals). In other words, it 'hides' or masks the recessive allele.

CO-DOMINANCE:

-a condition in which both alleles are dominant.
</span>
There are alleles that have the capacity of dominating at the same time, and when an organism is heterozygotic, both alleles are expressed.
For example, a white chicken(WW) crossed with a black chicken (BB):  100% of the offspring being WB. With this genotype, they have black feathers and white feathers.
It's not a blend of colors, but a case where both are expressing.

INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE:
-a condition with none of the alleles is dominant or recessive, so the traits blend in the phenotype.

Some alleles are not completely dominant, and when that's the case the phenotype of a heterozygous organism will be a mix between the phenotypes of its homozygous parents.

For example:
plant 1: RR -red
plant 2: rr- white

By crossing this plants we will obtain 100%  of the offspring with a color mix: pink.(genotype: Rr)
Red and white are not completely dominating so it results in a blend of colors.

SEX LINKED TRAITS

Sex chromosomes contain genes that determine the sex of a person. Two X chromosomes result in a female and one X plus a Y result in a male.

In those chromosomes, there are genes specific for each gender, and in those chromosomes, there are genes that code for certain traits- the sex-linked traits.
These traits will be inherited according to the sex chromosomes they receive from their parents.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Membrane bound cell organelles

Explanation:

A prokaryotic cell lacks a membrane defined nucleus and all the membrane-bound organelles. A eukaryotic cell has a membrane-bound nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria, chloroplasts, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, Golgi apparatus, etc.

To determine if a cell is a prokaryotic or eukaryotic, one can look for the nucleus and the membrane-bound organelles. If the cell has a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, it is a eukaryotic cell. The absence of these structures makes it a prokaryotic cell.

Can someone please describe the role of fermentation in maintaining ATP and NAD+ levels? I cant fully grasp the concept. Answer
Solnce55 [7]
Fermentation is the process by which a carbohydrate molecule is broken down into alcohol and carbon dioxide in the absence of oxygen. During this process, two molecules of ATP is produced. In the absence of oxygen, pyruvate formed from glycolysis will undergo fermentation process. During the process of fermentation, NADH from glycolysis will be converted back to NAD+. This is necessary in order for glycolysis to continue. Thus, fermentation regenerate more NAD+ and only a few molecule of ATP.
