Lean body mass <span>is the body mass attributed to non-fat body components, such as bone, muscle, and internal organs. In general, lean body mass is the mass of the body excluding the fat. It is important in fitness regimes. Most body builders want to maintain their lean body mass and decrease their body fat. </span>

Nondisjunction that occurs during meiosis II produces what?
natita [175]

Answer:

Both of these daughter cells will then go on to divide once more in meiosis II, producing 4 daughter cells, 2 with n+1 and 2 with n-1. Nondisjunction in meiosis II results from the failure of the sister chromatids to separate during anaphase II.

A. Compare and contrast the development of the dorsal and
lianna [129]

Answer:

The principal difference in development of Dorsoventral axis in deuterostomes and protostomes is something called inversion

Explanation:

In protostomates the neural tube is below the gut and the dorsal vessel is above the gut while in deuterostomates is the oppossite, there is an inversion and now, the neural tube is above the gut and the heart tube is below. In both cases the development is related to the gradient of expression of some genes, where the expresion of one gene supress the formation of one structure in one side of the axis.

In protostomates the TGT-B factor is expressed dorsally and supress neural tube formation and ventrally a sog gene is expressed and supress TGT-F factor allowing neural tube to develop. In deuterostomates, an homolog of TGT-B family gene BMP-4 is expressed ventrally while dorsally BMP inhibitors (sog gene like) are expressed.

Accordingly to some researchers, the first state of the common ancestor of deuterostomates and protostomates had an protostomate-like orientation in dorsoventral axis

39. What makes up proteins and what bonds them together?
icang [17]
Proteins are biological polymers constructed from amino acids joined together to form peptides. These peptide subunits may bond with other peptides to form more complex structures. Multiple types of chemical bonds hold proteins together and bind them to other molecules. Take a closer look at the chemical bonds responsible for protein structure.

Suppose there are two homologous chromosomes. Each chromosome contains a single mutant allele in different parts of the chromoso
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Cross overs can lead to formation of chromosome pairs that have no mutant allele.

Explanation:

Cross overs can lead to formation of chromosome pairs that have no mutant allele.

For example -

Suppose "X" is a mutant  allele and "x" is a mutant free allele.

Now when two homologous chromosomes contains a single mutant allele in different parts of the chromosome are crossed the following offspring are produced

X x

X XX Xx

x Xx xx

"xx" is a mutant free genotype.

Thus, crossing over can create a single mutation-free chromosome
