Answer:

Reduced penetrance or incomplete penetrance

Explanation:

Penetrance refers to the extend which a certain gene or set of genes is expressed in a population.

It can be complete where there is expression of the gene in a population having it.

Whereas, in reduced penetrance is where the mutation is not expressed in every individual in the population having it.

For instance polydactyly exhibits reduced penetrance since the parents had the mutation it was not expressed it came to be expressed on their pedigree.

Why does a larger quantity of water take longer to freeze ?
igomit [66]

Answer:

If the water is initially hot, cooled water at the bottom is denser than the hot water at the top, so no convection will occur and the bottom part will start freezing while the top is still warm. This effect, combined with the evaporation effect, may make hot water freeze faster than cold water in some cases.

a single stranded dna (oligonucleotides) can hybridize with (select one): select one: a. complementary dna b. complementary rna
garri49 [273]

A single stranded DNA  (oligonucleotides) can hybridize with (d) both complementary DNA and complementary RNA.

DNA is the Deoxyribonucleic Acid. It is the genetic material present in majority of organisms. The nitrogenous bases present in DNA are: Adenine, thymine, Guanine and Cytosine.  DNA is a double stranded structure hence it forms hydrogen bonds with a complementary strand. The complementary strand can be of a DNA or RNA.

RNA is the Ribonucleic Acid. It also is a genetic material present in very few organisms. RNA is less stable than the DNA and may be either single stranded or double stranded. The nitrogenous bases of RNA are: Adenine Uracil, Guanine and Cytosine.
