Answer:
In a diploid organism there are two copies of most genes.
The versions of the genes are called alleles.
Explanation:
Hello!
The genetic servants of a population are all variants of each of the genes present. These variables are possible thanks to the mutations that occur in the formation of the zygote (before or after fertilization).
When part of the DNA of an organism undergoes a point mutation (on one or a few nitrogenous bases) the body activates a series of responses to reverse it, however sometimes the mutation is maintained and can give rise to a change in a protein.
Sometimes and under certain circumstances (the change should not cause death or significant disadvantages in the body that is born) the mutation is maintained in the population giving rise to different alleles of the same gene.
In an organism there are two copies of each gene (genotype) but only one of them (phenotype) is expressed.
The allele of the gene that is expressed may depend on various factors but the dominant allele is usually expressed.

Answer:
An autosomal dominant gene is one that occurs on an autosomal (non-sex determining) chromosome. As it is dominant, the phenotype it gives will be expressed even if the gene is heterozygous.
The chances of an autosomal dominant disorder being inherited are 50% if one parent is heterozygous (NL) for the mutant gene and the other is homozygous for the normal (NN), or 'wild-type', gene. This is because the offspring will always inherit a normal gene from the parent carrying the wild-type genes, and will have a 50% chance of inheriting the mutant gene from the other parent. If the mutant gene is inherited, the offspring will be heterozygous for the mutant gene, and will suffer from the disorder. If the parent with the disorder is homozygous for the gene, the offspring produced from mating with an unaffected parent will always have the disorder.
Explanation:
Answer: Alarm reaction stage
Explanation:
The General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS) is the 3- stage body response to stress conditions. The three stages include
1) Alarm reaction stage
2) Resistance stage
3) Exhaustion stage
Note that the Alarm reaction stage consist of arousal by the autonomic nervous system, where several involuntary responses such as sweating, tension, raised breathing etc are observed due to hormones released.
Answer:
giraffes necks consists a tall bone like structure called notochord which gives support to the skeletal system like how do we have backbone
Answer:
2,000
Explanation:
4 kilograms will go in the tank in 1 second. So for 8,000 kilograms of water you divide 8,000 by 4. Which gives you 2,000. Got it right on Plato as well.
