Answer:

Bb and Bb

Explanation:

Let B be the allele of a black color;  &

Let b be the allele of a white color

Allele B is dominant over allele b, and as such it masks the expression of allele b

If we have a cross between two heterozygous individuals

i.e Bb × Bb

we have:

               B                b

B              BB             Bb

b              Bb              bb

From above, Phenotypically;

we have the following offspring:

BB  ;   one normal black color

2 Bb:  two heterozygous for black color

bb : one white color

The color ratio is in the ratio of 3 black :1 white  which is synonymous to 10 black : 3 white

So; we can therefore conclude that the genotype of the parents are :

Bb and Bb

What is the temperature of the Sun's middle most layer ?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The temperature of the Sun's middle most layer is 6,000 degrees Celsius to 20,000 degrees Celsius.

Explanation:

  • The sun is basically divided into inner and outer layer.
  • The inner layer consists of Core, Radiative Zone and Convection Zone.
  • The outer layer has Photosphere, chromosphere, transition region and corona.
  • The chromosphere is the middle layer that can vary its temperature 6,000 degrees Celsius to 20,000 degrees.
  • For most reason the temperature of chromosphere can be taken around 7700 degree Celsius but it varies.

Enzymes are sensitive to pH and temperature. If an enzyme’s environment is too hot, the enzyme cannot
musickatia [10]

Answer: I thought I have answered this question before. Yes emzymes are sensitive to PH and temperature.

Explanation:

if the temperature is above 60 - 70 degree celcius, it looses it's ability to catalyse as such emzymes are kept within the normal body temperature to function effectively. Emzymes are also sensitive to PH changing the pH of its surroundings will also change the shape of the active site of an enzyme and also changing the pH will affect the charges on the amino acid molecules.

The mrna codon CUU could mutate to C___ and still code for leucine, which could be a neutral mutation. What is the blank?
Lelechka [254]
A codon is a sequence of three bases found on the messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule which is translated to produce an amino acid. Each amino acid is coded by one or more specific codons. If the codon is changed through a mutation, the amino acid produced may be different. However, in this case, the other codons that produce Leucine are:

UUA, UUG, CUU, CUC, CUA and CUG

So the code CUU could mutate to CUC, CUA or CUG and leucine would still be produced.
