Answer:

C. to produce a new cell

Explanation:

Mitosis consists in replicating the genetic material of a mother cell in order to make two identical daughter cells; this is a diploid process. In order to make an egg or sperm cell and eventually a new organism, the correct process would be meiosis, since it combines the DNA between two cells and it is an haploid process.

Answer:

Explanation: Mitosis is a process where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells (cell division). During mitosis one cell? divides once to form two identical cells. The major purpose of mitosis is for growth and to replace worn out cells.

Hope this helps! Have a nice day!

6. explain the relationship between temperature and pressure. why do you think this occurs?

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

The pressure of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to the temperature at a given amount of volume. When the temperature of a system goes up, the pressure also goes up, and vice versa.

Explanation:

This occurs because of the pressure temperature law. (or also known as the Gay-Lussac's law)

In some breeds of mice, yellow coat color is

Elis [28]

In the exposed lethal genes cause the individual's death during embryionic development before being born. H0m0zyg0us dominant individuals do not get born. Yellow: 2/3. Grey: 1/3. Phenotypic ratio: 2:1

<h3>What is complete dominance?</h3>

When the dominant allele completely masks the expression recessive allele, we talk about complete dominance.

This is the case of individuals that are heter0zyg0us for a particular gene and express the dominant trait.

The dominant allele is hiding the expression of the recessive allele.

<h3>What are the lethal genes?</h3>

Refer to genes that impede the normal development of the individual.

They can cause death during embryo development before the individual gets born,

They can cause the individual's death after being born and before reaching sèxual maturity.

Let us assume that mice color is coded by a single diallelic gene that expresses complete dominance.

Available data:

Yellow color is dominant over grey color.

Yellow is coded by the dominant allele Y
Grey is coded by the recessive allele y

Genotype YY → Yellow and lethal

Genotype Yy → Yellow

Genotype yy → Grey

The cross would be as follows,

Cross: Yy x Yy

Gametes) Y y Y y

Punnett square) Y y

Y YY Yy

y Yy yy

F1) Considering ONLY the successfully born individuals

Genotype

2/3 = 50% of the progeny is expected to be heter0zyg0us, Yy.

1/3 = 25% of the progeny is expected to be h0m0zyg0us recessive, yy.

Phenotype

2/3 = 50% of the progeny is expected to be yellow, Yy.

1/3 = 25% of the progeny is expected to be grey, yy.

The phenotypic ratio is 2:1
