Answer:
This disorder is caused by a recessive allele, its inheritance is sex-linked.
Explanation:
The disorder affects boys born to unaffected parents, this means that at least one of them has to be a carrier of the allele which causes the disease. So, if the allele was dominant, it would express in parents and sons. But, in this case, only is expressed in sons, so it can´t be dominant. Moreover, this condition has a sex-linked inheritance because it is always seen in boys and never in girls. This happens due to boys only have an X chromosome, so if they inherit the recessive allele of the disease, they will express it. On the other hand, girls have two X chromosomes, so if they inherit one copy of the recessive allele, they will be carriers and they won't be affected.
This disorder is never seen in females because they need to have two copies of the recessive allele. However, to have double copy, they should inherit one copy from their mothers and one copy of their fathers, but boys with the allele are affected and they die in early teens without having progeny. Therefore, a girl can't have a "carrier-father", so they will never have two copies to express the disorder.
Answer:
mRNA interacts with ribosomes in the cytoplasm.
Explanation:
<em>The correct option would be that mRNA interacts with ribosomes in the cytoplasm.</em>
Translation involves the use of genetic codes in mRNA to synthesize amino acids that are eventually linked together by polypeptide bonds to form proteins.
<u>During translation, the mRNA synthesized in the nucleus is transported into the cytoplasm where it gets attached to the ribosome and another RNA - the tRNA. The codons on the mRNA eventually match with the anticodon of the tRNA with the later releasing the amino acid that corresponds to each codon</u>.
Hence, the correct answer out of all the options is that mRNA interacts with ribosomes in the cytoplasm.
A. Citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle)
Answer:
The food chain showing seven organisms can be drawn as follows:
Plants → grasshoppers → mice → frog → snakes→ eagles → decomposers
The plants are the primary source of food in a food chain or a food web. The animals which feed on plants will be termed as herbivores or primary consumers like the grasshopper. The organisms feeding on primary consumers will be the secondary consumers like mice.
An energy pyramid for three of the organisms can be shown as follows:
mice (10 kilocalories)
↑
Grasshoppers (100 kilocalories)
↑
Plants ( 1000 kilocalories)
As the energy pyramid shows, only about 10% of the energy travels from one trophic level to another.
Explanation:
Answer:
a)
Explanation:
Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that two or more populations of toads will form that are genetically distinct from each other because the toads will eventually become isolated on each island. This is mainly due to one population beating out the other in each island and/or adapting the the unique features of the island.
