Veseljchak [2.6K]3 years ago
5 0
Lipids are macromolecules which provide insulation. 
<span>A macromolecule is a large molecule. There are four groups of macromolecules: carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. Lipids consist of glycerol and fatty acids and are constructed from fats, oils, waxes, phospholipids and steroids. A lipid's function is to insulate the body and provide warmth in cold conditions. It can be concluded that a person with very little body fat gets very cold easily and a person with a lot of body fat gets very warm very quickly. </span>

How does human evolution or natural selection relate to the susceptibility of disease?
kykrilka [37]
Human evolution known to be a process in which species adapt to certain conditions of life, and in the battle of life and death, they are forced to become stronger in order to survive in this world. Diseases have always been present during the evolution, acting themselves as a natural selectors - the weaker organisms get sick and die. Not just humans, but all species have to establish a great protecting mechanism in order to survive. That is how our bodies are built, to be able to withstand and survive in the conditions we live in, and that is why our immune system has to be taken care of.

Assuming a typical monohybrid cross in which one allele is completely dominant to the other, what phenotypic ratio is expected i
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Assuming the dominant allele is represented as A, and the genotype as AA and the recessive as a, and genotype as aa; then the F1 will produce the offispring. Aa, Aa, Aa,Aa in ratio: 1:1:1:1:1

This shows the dominance of allele A.

However if two of  the F1 generation are crossed then:

The  F2 is AA,Aa,Aa,aa the phenotypic ratio is

                        3   ;     1

W<u>hile the Genotypic ratio is ratio;</u>

<u>   1AA : 2Aa Aa; 1aa(1 ;2;1)</u>

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

In Labrador dogs, black coat is dominant to chocolate, normal vision is dominant to progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), and normal hip joint is dominant to hip dysplasia. All these genes assort independently. Two dogs that are heterozygous for alleles of all three genes are crossed. Using rules of probability (not a Punnett square), what is the chance that the first pup born to these dogs will be chocolate, have normal vision, and have normal hip joints?

BbVvHh x BbVvHh= BBVVHH, BbVvHh, BbVvHh, bbvvhh

Bb= black coat dominant

Vv= Normal vision dominant

Hh= Normal hip join dominant

probability of having a first born of these dogs will be chocolate, have normal vision and have normal hip joint is 0

Explanation:

As the punette square gives 3:1 phenotype having three black coat, normal vision and normal hip joint and one chocolate, progressive retina altropy and hip dysplasia
