The Punnett square shown presents a cross between two piranhas. Both parents have large teeth.
Llana [10]

Answer:

The correct answer would be C)  75% large-toothed and 25% small-toothed.

It can be explained with the help of the law of dominance which states that the dominant allele expresses itself completely over the recessive allele in the heterozygous condition.

So, the genotype TT, as well as Tt, will result in the production of dominant trait or character in the offspring.

Thus, three (1 TT and 2 Tt) out of four offspring would have large teeth and only one offspring (tt) would have small teeth.

Hence, we can conclude that 75% of the offspring will have large teeth and only 25% will have small teeth.

When a flu virus enters the body, the immune system creates antibodies made of polypeptide chains to fight the virus. The specif
Otrada [13]

Answer and explanation:

Antibodies are structures made of four polypeptides, <em><u>two light (L) chains and two heavy (H) chains that join together and form a molecule shaped like a "Y"</u></em>. This structure is possible thanks to the <u>disulfide bonds</u> that bind light chains and heavy chains together. While the stem of the Y is constant and doesn't change ("<em>constant region</em>"), the tips of the Y, composed of 110-130 amino acids and called "<em>the variable region</em>", vary greatly among the different antibodies and are responsible for the high specificity of these molecules.

<u>This is why we could say that the primary structure of this protein is given by disulfide bridges that twist the antibody and allow it to bind to a protein from the flu virus.</u>
