Image is not available in the question so, the correct image is attached below.

Answer:

D. codes for a specific trait

Explanation:

chromosome is defined as a DNA molecule found in the nucleus of most living cells which carry genes and transfer the genetic information.

The part labelled b in the image is gene. The function of gene is to code for a specific trait.

Genes are responsible for carrying traits that form the genotype and phenotype of an organism. where genotype shows the differences in genetic formation and phenotype shows observable characters in an individual such as color, height and features.

Hence, the correct option is D.

When 238u92 becomes , 234Th90 what type of decay has taken place?

ruslelena [56]

Answer: alpha

Explanation: Alpha particles are fast moving streams of positively charged particles that are shown to be Helium nuclei. They have a mass

number of 4 and an atomic number of 2 and a charge of +2. Alpha particles are represented as 4He2. When 238U92 becomes 234Th90, it emitted a helium nucleus 4He2. The equation for the decay is 238U92 ---> 234Th90 + 4He2.

Inheritance patterns cannot always be explained by Mendel’s models of inheritance. If a pair of homologous chromosomes fails to

Talja [164]

The correct answer is: a. n+1, n+1, n-1, n-1

Nondisjunction is the failure of homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids to separate properly during mitosis or meiosis. There are three forms of nondisjunction:

1. failure of a pair of homologous chromosomes to separate in meiosis I ,

2. failure of sister chromatids to separate during meiosis II, and

3. failure of sister chromatids to separate during mitosis.

As a consequence of nondisjunction abnormal chromosome numbers appears. If nondisjunction occurs during the meiosis I (anaphase I), this means that at least one pair of homologous chromosomes did not separate. The consequence is two cells that have an extra copy of one chromosome and two cells that lack that chromosome.
