In flies, small wings (s) is recessive to normal wings (S). If a cross between two flies produces 8 small wing offspring and 26

normal wing offspring, what are the most likely genotypes of the parents

Vikentia [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The most likely genotypes of the parents is Ss and Ss. This would produce approximately three times the amount of small wings flies.

Explanation:

Small wings (s) is recessive to normal wings (S) in flies. Thus, small wings will be inherited in the recessive condition as ss and the normal wings can be inherited as SS or Ss.

A cross that will produce about three times the amount of the recessive allele which is the small wings is between

        two heterozygote flies

       Ss  x    Ss

    SS   Ss   Ss   ss

            3/4        1/4

The most likely genotypes of the parents is Ss and Ss. This would produce approximately three times the amount of small wings flies.

 3/4 of 34  will give an approximate of 26 and 1/4 of 34 will give an approximate of 8.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>Hemophilia typically affects more males than females because the disorder is </em><em>X-linked </em><em>and </em><em>recessive</em><em>. </em>

<u>Females have two X chromosomes (XX) while males only have one X and one Y chromosome (XY). The two X chromosomes in females are capable of carrying alleles while the Y chromosome in males is hypothesized not able to carry alleles. </u>

Consequently, the two X chromosomes in females will both need to carry the recessive allele of hemophilia in order for any female to be affected for hemophilia while the males only need their single X chromosome to carry the recessive allele in order to be affected.

In order words, the presence of a single recessive allele is not enough for a female to be affected while it is more than enough for a male to be affected. Hence, more males are affected b hemophilia disorder than females.

Receptors for ________, peptide hormones, and eicosanoids are found in the cell membranes of target cells.
Vsevolod [243]
The answer is Catecholamine. It is any of a class of aromatic amines that includes a number of neurotransmitters such as epinephrine and dopamine. The adrenergic receptors are a class of G protein-coupled receptors that are targets of the catecholamines, especially norepinephrine (noradrenaline) and epinephrine (adrenaline). These three - catecholamine, peptide hormones and eicosanoids acts as extracellular membrane receptors which means that these receptors are embedded in the membranes of cells. They act in cell signaling by receiving (binding to) extracellular molecules.

The gaps of unjoined membrane through which small molecules exit and enter capillaries are called __________.
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

<h2>A </h2>

Explanation:

1. A channel between two adjacent cells in known as an intercellular cleft.

2. And through these channels many molecules  can easily pass between cells.

3. Importance of Intercellular clefts:

i) It is very important in transportation of fluids and small solutes.  

ii) It contains gap junctions, tight junctions, desmosomes, and adheren proteins and these junctions help in regulate cell communication by signal transduction, surface receptors, or a chemogradient.
