Answer:
0,58
Explanation:
Mice are diploid (2n) organisms, which means that their cells contain two complete sets of homo-logous chromosomes (i.e., they have two copies of any given <em>locus</em>/gene). An allele can be defined as a variant of a gene, whereas diploid (2n) organisms have two alleles at each genetic <em>locus</em>, which are located on homo-logous chromosomes. In this case, we know that there are 580 dominant alleles in a population of 500 individuals, thereby the total number of alleles in this population is 1000 (2n >> 500 x 2 = 1000 alleles), and the frequency of the dominant allele is 0,58 (580/1000 = 0,58).
Hello!
Higher temperature affects plants’ growth especially in temperate crops like wheat. It reduces the growth of shoots and roots in plants. This, in turn, results in a substantial reduction in the overall height of the plant. High air temperature can lead to dehydration and scorched leaves.
In general, the increase of temperature would cause a damage in ecology of a certain area as most plants would not be able to adapt to this change. This, in turn, will affect the distribution of such plant species as they would die off unless placed in an environment with more favorable conditions.
Answer:
The probability of a white offspring is of 25%
Explanation:
To find the probability we can draw a 4-square Punnett square using the parents' alleles for the gene. If you want a more detailed explanation I would be glad to help :)
The sole reason why red blood cells are unable to replace damaged proteins is that red blood cells lack DNA and cell organelles such as nucleus, ribosomes and mitochondria which are crucial for protein synthesis, assembly and repair. In other words they lack both the information and the machinery for making or repair of proteins.
Due to lack of DNA and cell organelles, red blood cells cannot be able satisfy the central dogma which summarizes synthesis of proteins as DNA → RNA → proteins.
DNA has the genetic information on how proteins should be made, RNA is responsible for transferring the information from DNA in the cell nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm, then translating or decoding this information, which results in the making of protein.
Answer:
Differences in temperature or precipitation determine the types of plants that grow in a given area (Figure 1). Generally speaking, height, density, and species diversity decreases from warm, wet climates to cool, dry climates. Raunkiaer (1934) classified plant life forms based on traits that varied with climate.
