Answer:

monoallelic gene expression

Explanation:

<em>Monoallelic expression is a type of gene expression where only a copy out of the two copies of a gene is expressed and the other is silent. </em>

A gene is usually represented by two alleles representing alternate forms of the same character. Individuals inherit an allele each from their two parents for every gene within their genomes.

When only one of the alleles is expressed for a particular gene while the other allele remains silent, such phenomenon is referred to as monoallelic gene expression.

MArishka [77]

Answer:

The correct answer is- phosphorus and sulfur

Explanation:

Hershey and Chase used radioactive phosphorus and sulfur to label T2 bacteriophage. Then they infected E.coli with these bacteriophage labeled with radioactive phosphorus and sulfur.

After infection, they centrifuge the cell and found that radioactive phosphorus is present in the bottom and radioactive sulfur in supernatant . As sulfur is mostly the part of protein not  DNA and is found in supernatant  and phosphorus is mostly present in DNA not protein which was found in cell debris, therefore, it was proved that DNA is the genetic material.

MrMuchimi

the correct answer is A- Reproductive isolation occurred through behavioral isolation

A process of formation of a new species from an existing species is called speciation. New species may formed due to geographical or reproductive barriers which isolates the members of a population of a species to form a new species.

In the given question, speciation in In the leopard frogs occurred due to a particular or specific call given by males to the females. The courtship call lead to reproductive isolation due to change in behavior. Such type of behavioral change will help in recognizing mates of the same species and this will act as a reproductive barrier among the other related species.

Compared to a cell with few aquaporins in its membrane, a cell containing many aquaporins will A. have a faster rate of osmosis
Aloiza [94]

The correct option is A: have a faster rate of osmosis

A cell containing many aquaporins will have a faster rate of osmosis.

Aquaporins are micro water channels within the membrane that allow for the exchange of water and other neutral molecules over the biological membranes of other organisms.

Due to the presence of Aquaporins in plants, they have a high diversity of regulation properties, localizations, and transport selectivity.

The rate of osmosis increases as the aquaporins facilitate the transfer of water at a faster rate.
