Two short-haired guinea pigs have several offspring over the course of a few years. Out of 100 offspring, 25 of them have long h
Llana [10]

The genotype of the short-haired parents that produced some long hair offsprings is probably heterozygous.

<h3>What is heterozygosity?</h3>

Heterozygous means an organism which has two different alleles of a given gene.

An organism that is heterozygous posseses two different alleles of the same gene. For example, in this gene coding for hair length;

  • L represents short hair (dominant)
  • l represents long hair (recessive)

Therefore, if two short-haired parents produce 100 offsprings and 25 of them are long-haired, it means that they were probably heterozygous for the short hair.

The plasma membrane is involved in which activities? Choose one or more:
Triss [41]

Answer:

1. import and export of nutrients and wastes

2. cell signaling

3. cell recognition

4. cell growth and motility

Explanation:

Plasma membranes are selectively permeable which means it only allows selective molecules to cross through it. So the plasma membrane helps in the import and export of nutrients by simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion or through active transport.

There are membrane protein embedded in the plasma membrane which have different role. Some help in cell signaling like GPCR, some help in cell recognition and some act and transporter proteins.

The plasma membrane is also responsible for cell growth and motility because it allow the raw materials and signals to pass through it which is required by the cell to metabolize and grow. So 1,2,3,4 is the correct answer.
