Answer:

The correct answer is inheritance.

Explanation:

Genetic characteristics are transferred from one generation to another.The mechanism of transfer of genetically determined characteristics from generation to generation is called inheritance.

     Genetic characteristics are stored within the sex chromosome of both male(XY) and female(XX).During fertilization when the sperm cells fuses with ovum at that time some characteristics of both male and female gets incorporated into the diploid zygote which give rise to the new organism containing inherited genetic characteristics.

A person's blood type is determined by the:_______
matrenka [14]

Answer:

) Presence of specific glycoproteins on the cell membrane

Explanation:

When specif glycoproteins(antigens)  or antibody are present on a cell membrane of Red blood cell,they can  be used to identify the blood type.Antigens are substances capable of triggering an immune response in a cells.

In addition,they function in transport of molecules across the RBC. They help in the maintenance of the RBC,and aiding the arrest of cells capable of causing diseases to the body.

Therefore,they are good determinants of blood types,based on this two types of antigens present in a  blood type.

These two antigens  used for classification of blood types are the 1-the ABO antigens 2,the Rhesus antigens.

Essentially,when a WBC produces an antibody ,which is a molecule that defends the body,If this is not compatible,the antibody will recognize it as a foreign body and attack it.Thus such blood types are not compatible. Thus the antibody-antigen reaction are good for knowing and classify blood types.

Antigen can also be glycoprotein,carbohydrate or glycolipids.

Generally blood types are inherited from both parents.Therefore the antigen present on the RBC are combination of the alleles from each parent.

A student plans to measure the circumference of a balloon at various temperatures to determine how temperature affects the volum
nignag [31]
I think the independent variable is the temperature, while the dependent variable is the size of the balloon. The factor that is held constant is the amount of air in the balloon. An identical balloon kept at the original temperature. Independent variable in an experiment is the variable that the experiment plans to change while the dependent variable is the variable whose value depends on the independent variable.

Species A has a diploid number of 42 chromosomes, while species B has a diploid number of 48 chromosomes. Give the chromosome nu
Arada [10]

Answer:

a. autotriploid of species A: 63 chromosomes

b. autotetraploid of species B: 96 chromosomes

c. allotriploid from species A and B: 1) 66 chromosomes and 2) 69 chromosomes

Explanation:

<u>For a.</u>

this species will have 3 haploid sets of chromosomes ('tri' means 3)

one haploid set = 21

21 × 3 = 63 chromosomes

<u>For b.</u>

this species will have 4 haploid sets of chromosomes ('tetra' means 4)

one haploid set = 24

24 × 4 = 96 chromosomes

<u>For c.</u>

there are two ways to do this:

1) two sets of chromosomes from species A and one from species B

42 + 24 = 66 chromosomes

2) one set of chromosomes from species A and two from species B

21 + 48 = 69 chromosomes

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
