Answer:

Brown eyes are dominant

Explanation:

There is approximatley a 25% chance of children having blue eyes, but that doesn't necessarilly mean that 1 in 4 will have blue eyes. It's actually more likely to have the dominant gene.

Answer/Explanation:

Because blue eyes are a recessive gene? So like if both parents have brown eyes (Dominant gene) Then that gene sort of "overpowers" the blue gene? Also, no matter how many children they have it doesn't mean, that one of them might not get blue eyes if both parents carry blue eye genes. They also could just end up with only brown eyed children, it's almost like spinning a wheel of fortune tbh lol

I find this sort of stuff hard to explain but I hope what I said helps you out :)

Which describes the effects of population increase and resource depletion
Setler [38]

Answer AND Explanation:

As the population increases, the amount of resources are depleted. Inadequate resources makes the population growth to stop. With a high population, death rate increases due to starvation and diseases which spread more easily in a large population. There may be a decrease in birth rate due to fewer matings and abortions resulting from social stress.

Cilia:
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

E. All the answer options are correct.

Explanation:

Cilia are very small hair-like, membrane-bound cell structures. They are present on the surface of many eukaryotic cells. They are made of microtubules and are continuous with the plasma membrane of a cell. On a single cell, they are present in large numbers as compared to flagella. The major function of cilia is to move the cell or to move substances such as mucous, fluid over or around the cell.

What are the similarities and differences between carrier proteins and channel proteins​
kvv77 [185]
* Channel proteins- these are proteins with a hydrophilic pore where specific ions are able to pass through the membrane. Each channel protein is specific to an ion. This is the only way ions can travel through the membrane. They are trans membrane proteins.

* Carrier proteins- these are proteins which allow larger or polar molecules through the membrane. They are trans membrane proteins.

Carrier proteins essentially “carry" signals that are not soluble in aqueous solution through the blood stream to their target cells. Carrier proteins for hydrophilic signals prevent degradation of the signal. Channel proteins are embedded in cell membranes. They often are receptors (though not always), and when activated, allow specific ions to pass through the membrane.

A channel protein is a special arrangement of amino acids which embeds in the cell membrane, providing a hydrophilic passageway for water and small, polar ions. Like all transport proteins, each channel protein has a size and shape which excludes all but the most specific molecules

The carrier protein facilitate diffusion of molecules across the cell membrane. The protein is imbedded in the cell membrane and covers the entire membrane. This is important because the carrier must transport the molecule in and out of the cell.
