<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.

A person had bread and butter for his breakfast. Trace the changes in the main components of these during its passage through th
Papessa [141]

When the bread and butter is in mouth, mechanical digestion starts. The size of the food gets reduced and it mixes with saliva for easy swallowing. The salivary amylase in saliva begins the digestion of starch in the bread. This is the start of chemical digestion. When the undigested bread and butter reached the stomach, lower esophageal sphincter relaxes and allow the chewed food to enter. The gastric secretions containing HCl, acts on the undigested food to produce chime. HCl kill the microorganism on the food and also denatures the protein and later attacked by digestive enzyme pepsin. Pepsin breakdown protein in the bread, butter . Later on gastric lipase begins to digest fat present in butter. Digestion of the starch in bread does not occur in the stomach because the salivary amylase that began chemical digestion in mouth became inactive in the presence of HCl. Further the chime enters the small intestine where bile secreted by the gall bladder emulsifies the fat and break into small globule which helps in fat absorption.

<span>INTRODUCTION: What would happen to your cells if they made a poisonous chemical? You might think that they would die. In fact, your cells are always making poisonous chemicals. They do not die because your cells use enzymes to break down these poisonous chemicals into harmless substances. Enzymes are proteins that speed up the rate of reactions that would otherwise happen more slowly. The enzyme is not altered by the reaction. You have hundreds of different enzymes in each of your cells.</span>

What are greenhouse gasses? How does carbon dioxide enter the atmosphere? Click through all four pages of the article
umka21 [38]
1. Greenhouse gases are compounds that are able to trap heat in the atmosphere, keeping the Earth's surface warmer than it would be if they were not present. The gases are the fundamental cause of the greenhouse effect. Increase in the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere enhances the greenhouse effect which is creating global warming and consequently the climate change. These gases are mainly carbon dioxide; metahne, nitrous oxide, and flourinated gases. 
 
2. Carbon dioxide enters the atmosphere from animals and plants through the process of respiration and the burning of fossil fuels from industries. .
Animals and plants get rid of carbon dioxide gas through respiration. Carbon may also move from fossil fuels to the atmosphere when fuels are burned. Burning of fuels to power factories, power plants, cars and trucks makes carbon to enter the atmosphere as carbon dioxide.
