Answer:

              Phenotype is physical appearance of the individual while genotype is the genetic makeup of the individual.

Explanation:

                      Two parents having normal phenotype but effected individual is due to the parents may be Carrier for the particular deseis and the gene responsible for the desies may be in recessive form and the parents are not effected.  The gene is not present in dominant form and can not show its effect but the parents are not effected and the daughter may be affected by certain desiese.

Answer: This is possible only if the two parents ar e heterozygous for the trait and the genetic disorder is inherited in a recessive fashion.

Explanation: Phenotype is the outward appearance of an organism. Genotype is the genetic makeup of an individual, a genotype can not be seen but it is manifested in an observable trait known as phenotype. Every trait is controlled by a pair of gene inherited one from each parent. When the two parents are heterozygous for the trait (having one dominant allele and one recessive allele for the trait), a child can inherit two recessive alleles one from each parent.

For example, when two parents are heterozygous for sickle cell disease AS, a cross between them will produce an offspring with sickle cell disease. As x As =AA, As, As, and ss. (A is dominant and s is recessive).

Mention the name of four groups of important pathogenic E. coli? Can TBX medium be used to recover all types of nonpathogenic an
Law Incorporation [45]

The four groups of pathogenic E.coli are enteropathogenic, enterotoxigenic, verocytotoxigenic and enteroinvasive groups. These groups can best be isolated and recoved through luria broth.

<h3>What is Escherichia coli?</h3>

The pathogenic E. coli or Escherichia coli serotypes are grouped on the basis of their mechanism of causing symptoms in humans. The six groups of pathogenic E.coli are enteropathogenic, enterotoxigenic, verocytotoxigenic, enteroinvasive, enteroaggregative and diffusely adherent E. coli.

Luria broth (LB) is one of the most commonly used growth medium for E. coli. It promotes fast growth of the organism and also provides good plasmid yields, making it an excellent choice for most laboratory applications, especially the small-scale plasmid preps.

Which option(s) correctly describes chromosomes?
laiz [17]

Answer:In the nucleus of each cell, the DNA molecule is packaged into thread-like structures called chromosomes. Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled many times around proteins called histones that support its structure.

Chromosomes are not visible in the cell’s nucleus—not even under a microscope—when the cell is not dividing. However, the DNA that makes up chromosomes becomes more tightly packed during cell division and is then visible under a microscope. Most of what researchers know about chromosomes was learned by observing chromosomes during cell division.

Each chromosome has a constriction point called the centromere, which divides the chromosome into two sections, or “arms.” The short arm of the chromosome is labeled the “p arm.” The long arm of the chromosome is labeled the “q arm.” The location of the centromere on each chromosome gives the chromosome its characteristic shape, and can be used to help describe the location of specific genes.
