Answer: Hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

The hydrogen bonding in water accounts for the properties like cohesion, adhesion, high specific heat.

The hydrogen bonding in water is a dynamic attraction which is found in between the oxygen molecules and hydrogen molecules.

Two oxygen molecules interact with one hydrogen molecules to form hydrogen bonding which provides water some properties like cohesion, adhesion, ability to dissolve different solutes in it.

In cats, curled ears result from an allele, Cu, that is dominant over an allele cu, for normal ears. Black color results from an

just olya [345]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cross : ggCuCu X GGcucu --------Parents

F1 progeny : GgCucu

Two of the F1 cats mate :

Cross : GgCucu X GgCucu

Gametes :

Gg X Gg = GG, Gg, Gg, gg

Cucu X Cucu = CuCu, Cucu, Cucu, cucu

1/4 GG X 1/4 CuCu = 1/16 GGCuCu (black - curled ears)

1/4 GG X 2/4 Cucu = 2/16 GGCucu (black - curled ears)

1/4 GG X 1/4 cucu = 1/16 GGcucu (black - normal ears)

2/4 Gg X 1/4 CuCu = 2/16 GgCuCu (black - curled ears)

2/4 Gg X 2/4 Cucu = 4/16 GgCucu (black - curled ears)

2/4 Gg X 1/4 cucu = 2/16 Ggcucu (black - normal ears)

1/4 gg X 1/4 CuCu = 1/16 ggCuCu (gray - curled ears)

1/4 gg X 2/4 Cucu = 2/16 ggCucu (gray - curled ears)

1/4 gg X 1/4 cucu = 1/16 ggcucu (gray - normal ears)

Answer : (i). 9/16 black cats, curled ears; 3/16 black cats, normal ears; 3/16 gray cats, curled ears; and 1/16 gray cats, normal ears.

An F1 cat mates with a stray cat that is gray and possesses normal ears :

Cross : GgCucu X ggcucu

Gametes :

Gg X gg = Gg, Gg, gg, gg

Cucu X cucu = Cucu, Cucu, cucu, cucu

2/4 Gg X 2/4 Cucu = 4/16 GgCucu (black - curled ears)

2/4 Gg X 2/4 cucu = 4/16 Ggcucu (black - normal ears)

2/4 gg X 2/4 Cucu = 4/16 ggCucu (gray - curled ears)

2/4 gg X 2/4 cucu = 4/16 ggcucu (gray - normal ears)

Answer : (i). 1/4 black cats, curled ears; 1/4 black cats, normal ears; 1/4 gray cats, curled ears; 1/4 gray cats, normal ears.

What is the probability of a heterozygous offspring? Explain.

bagirrra123 [75]

It would be 50 percent i think- so im learning this in school and we used punnet squares- so a Yy and Yy have offspring it would be 50 percent chance that it would be heterozygous too

An increase in the permeability of the cells of the collecting tubule to water is due to a(n) ________.

OLga [1]

An increase in the permeability of the cells of the collecting tubule to water is due to an increase in production of ADH. Hormone ADH also called vasopressin is responsible for regulating the amount of water in the blood and is released from the pituitary gland based on signals from the hypothalamus, which detects the water levels of the blood. When too much water is in the blood, the hormone release is decreased and more water is excreted in the kidneys and thus increasing urine output.
