Answer:

A gene is an extremely specific sequence of nucleotide monomers that has the ability to completely or partially control the expression of one or more traits in every type of living organism. Genes are formed from deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and, in the case of some viruses, ribonucleic acid (RNA) polymers.

I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

When looking at a pedigree remember that:

  • squares are males
  • circles are females
  • the solid colored figure represents an individual affected by a disease
  • the empty figure represents a healthy individual

Let us assign the symbol X⁺ to represent the dominant allele linked to the X-chromosome and expressing healthiness, and X⁻ to represent the recessive allele expressing the dissease.

According to this pedigree

  • I1 is a man affected by the disease, YX⁻
  • I2 is a healthy woman X⁺X⁻
  • we can see that among the progeny (generation II) there are two individuals affected (a boy and a girl) and one healthy girl. This means that the mother I2 is heterozygous for the trait.

So, having their genotypes we can know what are the probabilities of getting a son with DMD

Parentals)    YX⁻     x     X⁺X⁻  

Gametes)   Y     X⁻      X⁺     X⁻

Punnett square)

                        X⁺             X⁻

            X⁻      X⁺X⁻         X⁻X⁻    

            Y        X⁺Y           X⁻Y

F1)

  • The probabilities of getting a healthy daughter X⁺X⁻ are 25%
  • The probabilities of getting a healthy son X⁺Y are 25%
  • The probabilities of getting a daughter with DMD X⁻X⁻ are 25%
  • The probabilities of getting a son with DMD X⁻Y are 25%

Why does dna copy itself during the cell cycle?
natima [27]
Well the whole point of the cell cycle is to make more cells so it could be C, but it also wants the daughter cell to have the same AMOUNT of DNA, not the exact type (in meiosis) so B may be right, but most likely it is C
