Answer:

3/4

Explanation:

In humans, a widow's peak hairline is dominant while a straight hairline is recessive.

Tom and Sue both have a widow's peak but their son Joe has a straight hairline.

For Joe to have a straight haircut which is inherited in the recessive condition, that means both parent each has a recessive allele copy for this trailer making them heterozygotes for the trait.

If the widow's peak allele is W (genotype for heterozygote would be Ww)

A cross between these two heterozygotes gives

Ww x Ww

WW Ww Ww ww

3/4 widow's peak 1/4 straight hair line

The genetic probability of that child having a widow's peak hairline is 3/4...

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

1. The correct answer is; are body cells is going to shrink. <span>Salty seawater is a hyperosmotic solution, meaning that it has more solutes than the cell inside. The water will move (from the cell) via osmosis in order for the solutions to reach equilibrium. Also, salty solution exerts more pressure on the of the cell, so the cell will shrink.</span>
<span>
2. The correct answer cells in the fish will stay the same size. This will occur because both solutions, freshwater lake and river have similar (or equal) solute concentrations. Those solutions are called isosmotic. There is no movement of water or the solutes, so the cell stays the same.</span>

3. The correct answer is to swell. <span>This will happen because sea star egg has the same solute concentration as its first environment-ocean meaning that this solution is hyperosmotic comparing to the lake (ocean is saltier than the lake, it has more solutes). When you put the sea star egg in the lake, the water from the lake will move (via osmosis) into the egg, to reach equilibrium. Water will cause the cell to swell.</span>

Doss [256]

Answer:

1. coevolution

2. abiogenesis

3. Endosymbiont Theory

4. It's estimated that over 99 percent of the species that have existed on Earth at some point in time are extinct today.

5. Coevolution implies that the evolution of one species is dependent on and works in relation to the evolution of another species. This may cause positive or negative impacts and could be beneficial to both organisms or only to one.

6. This theory states that the first building block of life that allowed for reproduction of organisms was the development of self-replicating RNA. This hasn't been able to be fully demonstrated in any science experiment but is based on the idea that there are RNAs that can catalyze biochemical reactions on their own without proteins.

7. This process points to the development of structures through the envelopment of smaller cells that perform specific functions. This is how eukaryotic cells evolved from prokaryotic cells.

8. This experiment was important because it showed that, in the right primordial soup, organic compounds could develop from inorganic compounds.
