Imagine that beak color in a finch species is controlled by a single gene. You mate a finch homozygous for orange (pigmented) be

Answer:

A) incomplete dominance.

Explanation:

It is a clear case of incomplete dominance. This kind of inheritance shows deviation from Mendel's popular law of genetics which is known as "Law of Dominance". This law states that when two pure breeding parents i.e. homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive are mated then all their off-springs are genotypically heterozygous but phenotypically they all show dominant trait. But in incomplete dominance, <u>the dominant allele is unable to mask the expression of recessive allele completely</u> which leads to a phenotype which is a blend of both the traits.

In the example, orange beak is unable to mask the expression of ivory beak completely as a result of which all the off-springs have an intermediate trait which is pale, ivory-orange beak.

Lactic acid fermentation can be modeled by which equation?
Reptile [31]

Lactic acid fermentation can be modeled by the following equation: Pyruvic acid + NADH → Lactic acid + NAD+

LACTIC ACID FERMENTATION:

  • Fermentation is a process undergone by some anaerobic organisms. Ideally, the process of cellular respiration proceeds as follows in the presence of oxygen: Glycolysis- Kreb cycle - ETC.

  • However, in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic condition), the product of glycolysis which is pyruvic acid combines with an electron carrier (NADH) to give rise to lactic acid and NAD+.

  • This means that pyruvic acid is reduced while NADH is oxidized as modelled in the following equation:

  • Pyruvic acid + NADH → Lactic acid + NAD+
