A child has to get the sickle cell anemia gene from both of the parents. The parent can carry and pass on the gene without getting sickle cell anemia. But since the gene is in them, there is a possibility they could also get sick.

Research and identify a vestigial structure of an organism of your choosing.
Mariana [72]

Answer:

The one of best example would be appendix in humans.

Explanation:

In the past, the appendix may have helped in the digestion of the plants by producing mucus and prevent any type of infection. Plants with a high content of cellulose are digested with the help of the appendix as reported.

It is not a part of the human digestive system and considers as a vestigial organ. Vestigial organs are the organs that are present in an organism with no particular function and their removal will not lead to any harm. Humans do not need it because our digestive system is more efficient and works better in the first stages of digestion than they used to.

Thus, the correct answer is - appendix in humans.

Avery and DNA (page 289)
Ivan

Yes, Avery, Mc Leod and Mc Carty do thought that genes may be involved in the transformation of non virulent rough Strains of <em>Diplococcus pneumoniae</em> to harmful smooth strained bacteria

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Avery was a Canadian medical researcher who along with other two well known scientists of the contemporary time went for an experiment where he took two strains of bacteria Diplococcus pneumoniae - one is rough and nonvirulent and another is smooth and virulent. For a control run, he injected both the bacteria in separate mice and the expected result was there. Now as he injected heat killed smooth bacteria, the mice survived. But as he injected heat killed smooth bacteria with rough bacteria, although there was no organism which can kill the mice the mice died. And autopsy revealed the presence of live smooth bacteria in the lungs.

Thus they suspected something have gone from the dead smooth bacteria into the non virulent rough bacteria which lead to transformation of the rough bacteria to smooth ones. Thus, the experiment was carried on, which suspected role of genes in this transformation.

natima [27]

The correct answer is option A, that is, a landfill in the region of nonporous bedrock.  

A permanent waste disposal facility where the wastes are put into the ground and covered with a layer of plastic, soil, or both is known a landfill. A secure chemical landfill refers to a landfill developed in the region of nonporous bedrock.

A secure chemical landfill is a prudently engineered depression in the ground or constructed on the top of the ground, signifying a football stadium into which wastes are dumped. The objective is to inhibit any water-related or hydraulic association between the surrounding environment and the wastes, mainly groundwater.
