Answer:

TWO YEARS AGO, a group of Ugandan chimps provided a blow to the idea that humans are the only animals that truly behave selflessly to one another. These chimps showed clear signs of true selflessness, helping both human handlers and other unrelated chimps with no desire for reward.

The question of why we help each other, instead of looking out for ourselves, is one of the most compelling in modern biology. Evolutionary and game theory alike predict that selfish behaviour should be the rule with altruism the exception, and animal experiments have largely supported this idea. Nature, ‘red in tooth and claw’, is painted as a fierce competition between selfish individuals and their even more selfish genes. In this stark landscape, true altruism is apparently a rare quality and some scientists believe that it’s one

Rama09 [41]
Supercoiling is an important property of DNA tertiary structure that affects essential processes such as replication and transcription. Negative supercoiling is very important. Negative supercoiling causes unwinding of DNA and it makes the DNA strand ready for biological processes such as replication and transcription. Negative supercoiling is introduced in a DNA with the help of enzyme topoisomerase enzymes I and II. In bacteria topoisomerase enzyme II is called gyrase.

If parents supplied different alleles for a certain trait to their offspring, What following terms would be used to describe the
My name is Ann [436]
When parents provide a different allele of a given gene, then the offspring is called as heterozygous for that allele.  Alleles turn out phenotypes or physical versions of an attribute that are either dominant or recessive.
The dominance or recessivity related to a specific allele is the result of masking, by that, a dominant phenotype hides a recessive phenotype. By this logic, in heterozygous offspring, solely the dominant phenotype is apparent.
