Answer:
If he inherited a mutation which made him more susceptible to lung cancer, it may have been present in some of the gametes he produced and passed to his children
Explanation:
Even tho the cause of lung cancer is not very clear, a genetic predisposition is of a great influence, his smoking and therefore causing a lung cancer is not appliable to his children because of no connection, but in the sense of having a mutation which makes you predisposable to the cancer with or without the smoking, can lead to a high risk of gene inheritance and therefore inheriting the mutation with a high risk of getting lung cancer excluding the smoking.
Answer:
c)polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
Explanation:
Because the paleontologist recovered only a bit of tissue and it is very old, it is very likely that the DNA in the sample is very small and part of it is degraded. Anyway, the paleontologist must first amplify the DNA sample to obtain many identical copies of the specific region of the DNA they want to compare. the above is done through a polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
Answer:
The process that is used by producers to make glucose is called photosyntheis and the chemical process used by both producers ans consumers to make ATP ito contribute to the energy exchange is called cellular respiration.
Explanation:
Photosynthsis
Photosynthesis occue in the mesophyll tissue present in leaves of plants .During photosynthesis the green plants or producers acquires CO2 from the atmosphere and utilizes water in presence of sunlight to produce glucose molecules along with the liberation of oxygen gas.
Cellular respiration
During cellular respiration the glucose molecules are oxidized to form energy in form of ATP along with the production of water and carbon dioxide.
The O2 that formed during photosynthesis is inhaled by human beings for respiration whereas the CO2 that is produced as waste material inside our body is exhaled by us in the atmosphere.The CO2 is then used by the green plants to carry out photosynthesis.
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-A.
Explanation:
The females carry two X-chromosomes in their cells but one of these X-chromosome gets permanently inactivated during embryonic development.
The X-inactivation is known as lyonization which ensures that only one functional X-chromosome should be present like in males. This process is a random process and therefore a female can have both the functional X-chromosomes and males can also have a functional X-chromosome.
Thus, option-A is the correct answer.
