kakasveta [241]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Mutation- A change in genetic structure of a organism is called as mutation.

It can be inherited to offspring if it is <em>germline or germinal mutation</em> , <em>mutation that occurs in germ cells like sperm and ovum.</em>

Explanation:

Each of the genes of a child is the copy of his parents,  one from mother and one from father.  Any kind of changes or mutation in any genes of them can be inherited to child

<em>Mutations caused by environmental factors can not transferred to next generation. Mutation caused by UV radiation, smoking, sunlight are non inheritable..</em>

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

D. The system provided an organized way to classify living things and it has been able to grow and develop. There is a place to enter new organisms as they are discovered or new evidence occurs

Explanation:

Carolus Linnaeus is a Swedish Botanist is universally referred to as the FATHER OF TAXONOMY because of his contribution to the development of a system of naming and classifying species, which is still globally recognized today. Linnaeus proposed the binomial nomenclature system which uses two of the hierarchical classification to name organisms i.e. genus and species. For example, humans are Homo sapiens; Homo (generic name), Sapien (specific name).

Modern scientists later modified Linnaeus classification by adding new ranks in order to accommodate new species and removing incorrectly classified organisms but Linnaeus classification remains the foundation. One important modification was the inclusion of a new taxon called DOMAIN.

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

12 : 3 : 1

Explanation:

According to Mendel's principles, a dihybrid cross between two heterozygous summer squash parents (WwGg X WwGg) should yield offsprings, 12 with white, 3 with yellow and  1 with green color phenotype. The classic Mendelian phenotypic ratio for dihybrid cross is 9:3:3:1. In this case, genotypes W- G- and W- gg produce white color phenotype. This is because we have 12: 3: 1 phenotypic ratio in which the alleles of two different genes assort independently into gametes.

<em>Dihybrid cross for heterozygous summer squash:</em>

                    WG         Wg            wG            wg          

    WG      WWGG   WWGg     WwGG     WwGg

    Wg       WWGg   WWgg     WwGg      Wwgg

    wG        WwGG    WwGg     wwGG      wwGg

      wg       WwGg    Wwgg     wwGg        wwgg

   Genotypes:

   W-G-  and W- gg  = white = 12

    ww G- = yellow = 3

     ww gg = green = 1

MrMuchimi
<span>the plant no longer is allowing the necessary carbon dioxide required for photosynthesis to enter through the stomata. The plant also needs to be able to release oxygen,the byproduct of photosynthesis through the stomata. The stomata are also responsible for theamount of water inside the plant. By closing when there is not enough water, the stomata prevent loss of additional water due to evaporation.</span>
