Answer: The correct answer is- Recessive.

Allele is described as an alternative form of a gene. There are two forms of a gene that is dominant allele ( represented by capital letter) and recessive allele ( represented by small letter).

Recessive allele does not exhibit its phenotype in presence of dominant allele. In other words, dominant allele masks the expression of recessive allele.

Example of recessive allele- 't' for dwarf height of pea plant. It is masked by dominant allele 'T' that represents tall plant height.

The trait the phenotype that's masked with a different allele is a recessive.

Since the cell is in a shoebox, we can assume this cell is a plant cell. the balloon most likely represents the vacuole, which is the largest organelle in the plant cell. the marbles could represent ribosomes, but ribosomes aren’t the only round organelle so i’m not sure about that one.

Explanation:

1. DNA

2.A , G , C and T

3.The 3-dimensional double helix structure of DNA, correctly elucidated by James Watson and Francis Crick. Complementary bases are held together as a pair by hydrogen bonds.

4.Chargaff's realization that A = T and C = G, combined with some crucially important X-ray crystallography work by English researchers Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins, contributed to Watson and Crick's derivation of the three-dimensional, double-helical model for the structure of DNA.

5.Created by Rosalind Franklin using a technique called X-ray crystallography, it revealed the helical shape of the DNA molecule. Watson and Crick realized that DNA was made up of two chains of nucleotide pairs that encode the genetic information for all living things.

6. 1869

7.The double helix of DNA is, like its name implies, in the shape of a helix which is essentially a three dimensional spiral. The double comes from the fact that the helix is made of two long strands of DNA that are intertwined—sort of like a twisted ladder.

8. In DNA, the code letters are A, T, G, and C, which stand for the chemicals adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine, respectively. In base pairing, adenine always pairs with thymine, and guanine always pairs with cytosine.

9. A gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Genes are made up of DNA. Some genes act as instructions to make molecules called proteins. ... Every person has two copies of each gene, one inherited from each parent.

10. 20

11. A group of disorders that cause red blood cells to become misshapen and break down.

With sickle cell disease, an inherited group of disorders, red blood cells contort into a sickle shape. The cells die early, leaving a shortage of healthy red blood cells (sickle cell anaemia) and can block blood flow causing pain (sickle cell crisis).

12. Sickle cell anemia is caused by a mutation in the gene that tells your body to make the iron-rich compound that makes blood red and enables red blood cells to carry oxygen from your lungs throughout your body (hemoglobin).

13. The Human Genome Project was an international scientific research project with the goal of determining the base pairs that make up human DNA, and of identifying and mapping all of the genes of the human genome from both a physical and a functional standpoint.

I'm so absolutely sorry if this is long. Good lucj with ur work ;D
