Answer:

False

Explanation:

The salt concentration inside the body of freshwater fish is higher as compared to the water in which it live . However this is not the the case with marine fish which have low salt concentration in their blood  as compares to the salt in the sea water. In order to maintain sufficient salt in the fresh water fish body, specialized cell in the gills take ions from water and transport it into the blood.  Thus it can be said that A freshwater fish regulate its salt levels by pumping salt inward across its gills

How can two organisms with a dominant trait for a specific feature produce an organism with a recessive trait for the same featu
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

If the two organisms are heterozygous for the dominant trait.

Explanation:

For every trait, a diploid organism receives two forms of gene called ALLELE, from each parent. Allele is the variant form of a gene.

According to Mendel's law of dominance, for a particular trait, an allele is capable of masking the expression of another allele in a gene. The expressed allele is called the DOMINANT allele while the masked allele is called the RECESSIVE allele. Due to this, an organism can express a dominant trait even in a combined or heterozygous state i.e. different alleles.

When the two heterozygous organisms mate or are crossed, they undergo meiosis and their alleles are separated into GAMETES according to Mendel's law of segregation. For example; an organism with genotype (genetic make-up) Aa will produce gametes with A and a alleles.

Note that, a recessive trait can only be expressed in a homozygous state i.e. same allele. Hence, the two heterozygous organisms will produce gametes containing the recessive allele, which will likely combine to produce a recessive phenotype or trait.

When nutritional protein is in brief supply, the frame tends to take protein from skeletal muscles to keep more important tissues and frame functions. As a result, lack of protein ends in muscle losing over time. ... Loss of muscle tissues is one of the first signs of inadequate protein intake.
