Why is a dominant allele called dominant?

Biology
1 answer:
mamaluj [8]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The correct option is <em>D. It dominates the phenotype.</em>

Explanation:

A dominant allele can be described as the allele which suppresses the effect of a recessive allele. A recessive allele can be described as the allele which gets masked by the dominant allele.

If the gene for a particular trait in an organism is heterozygous, then the organism will show the physical characteristic of the dominant trait. The recessive trait becomes suppressed and might be visible in the next generation if possible.

What 2 environmental conditions affect enzyme activity
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

pH & Temperatures

Explanation:

pH affects the charges of the functional amino side groups of the amino acids that make up the protein of the enzymes – through changes in ionization. These charges are significant in maintaining the shape of the protein enzyme through forces of attractions such as hydrogen and sulfide bonds. Changes in charges affect these bonds hence denature the protein.

Temperature does not change the charges of the side groups but breaks these same bonds. This happens by giving these molecules high kinetic energy enough to escape the forces of the bonds – hence denaturing the protein enzyme.

ad-work [718]

The correct size order from the smallest to the largest is:

Animal cell >> Mitochondrion >> Ribosome >> Hexokinase >> ATP >> O2

  • The animal cell size is about 20 to 30 micrometers (μm), although it varies according to the type of the cell.

  • The average mitochondria size is approximately 0.75 to 3 μm. The size, number, and structure of mitochondria in an animal cell vary according to type of animal cell.

  • The ribosome size is approximately 0.02 μm in diameter.

  • An enzyme is a macromolecule whose size is variable (its average size is 3–7 nanometers, i.e., 3-7 nm). A micrometer (μm) equal to 1000 nm.

  • The adenosine triphosphate or ATP (the energy coin of the cell, which is composed of a five-carbon sugar, three phosphate groups, and adenine) and molecular oxygen (O2) are both simple molecules whose sizes are very small compared to enzymes.
