toxic substances can increase the risk for birth defect, miscarriages,etc.
Answer:
autonomous; nonautonomous
Explanation:
A is autonomous trasnposable element because it has the ability to move on its own with out the need of element B even if it is absent.
The B element is immobile in the absence of element A . Element B will move on its way only in the presence of element . this type of element is called as non-autonomous because it can not move on it own and it will always need element A for its movement.
Answer:
A chromosome is a long DNA molecule with part or all of the genetic material of an organism. Most eukaryotic chromosomes include packaging proteins called histones which, aided by chaperone proteins, bind to and condense the DNA molecule to maintain its integrity
Answer:
Mrs. Ritter, whose blood type is B (Bi) is right in claiming that Ian - blood type A (Ai)- is the father of her baby, with blood type O (ii). Ex-boyfriend AB (AB) cannot be the father.
Explanation:
The blood type, according to the ABO system, is determined by the presence or absence of surface antigens A and B. In addition, genotypes can be co-dominant, in the case of A, B and AB, heterozygous (Ai or Bi) and recessive, in the case of group O (ii)
- <em>
</em><u><em>Type A</em></u><em> contains the antigen A and its genotype can be AA or Ai.
</em>
- <u><em>Type B</em></u><em> contains the antigen B, whose genotype can be BB or Bi.
</em>
- <u><em>Type AB</em></u><em> contains both antigens and a single genotype expression AB.
</em>
- <u><em>Type O</em></u><em> blood lacks surface antigens, its genotypic expression being ii.</em>
According to this, to check if Mrs Ritter's baby is Ian's child, a crossing can be done:
♂ Ai
♀ Bi
Alleles A i
B AB Bi
i Ai ii
<u>Ian and Mrs Ritter have a 25% chance of having a child with blood type O (ii), so the baby may be Ian's child</u>.
To find out why the ex-boyfriend can't be the father
♂ AB
♀ Bi
Alleles A B
B AB BB
i Ai Bi
It is not possible that Mrs. Ritter's ex-boyfriend is the father of the baby, as the possible offspring in the crossover are A, B or AB.
The answer would be c , plant growth because that is what is being measured in the experiment.
