Phagocytosis would enable a white blood cell to ingest a bacterium

Phagocytosis is a special form of endocytosis by which cells ingest solid substances including microbial pathogens to produce an internal compartment known as a phagosome. Cells that undergo this process are called phagocytes. The white bold cells of the immune system protect the body against invasion by pathogens such as bacteria. They perform this function by phagocytosis.

Over time weeds have become resistant to pesticides. Which process explains how pesticide resistance developed? A. natural selec
Mice21 [21]
A. Natural Selection.  This is because the weeds that are not resistant to it die out before they can reproduce, but the resistant ones grow to maturity and then reproduce, passing down the resistance gene.  Over time, the resistance gene would become a normal thing in weeds, while the non-resistant gene would not exist anyone, since the gene could not be passed on.

Explain two situations in which it would be important/useful to be able to predict the phenotype and/or genotype of offspring fr
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The two situations in which it would be important/useful to be able to predict the phenotype and/or genotype of offspring from a cross include Genetic counseling before marriage so as to enlighten the individuals on the importance and to reduce the risk of having sickle cell offsprings.

The other reason is for paternity and maternity tests. The genotypes and phenotypes are important factors in knowing the paternity of individuals due to the knowledge of genotypic and phenotypic constituents of the individual.
