Merle is a marking pattern in canine coats that appears as a marbling of color in a solid coat. the merle gene displays incomple

te dominance. cscs individuals display a solid coat cmcs individuals are merle and show patches of fur with a lighter, mottled effect cmcm individuals are "double merle" and show patches of fur with much more pronounced lightening another gene, fgf5, also influences coat phenotype and determines whether dogs display long or short coats, with short coats being dominant to long coats. Part a. determine the proportion of offspring phenotypes that would result when two merle dogs mate, if one dog is true-breeding for the long-coat trait and the other dog is true-breeding for the short-coat trait.

Answer:

100% merle with long coats.

Explanation:

<em>All the offspring produced from the cross would be merle with long coats.</em>

<u>From the illustration:</u>

Merle gene is represented by the genotype cmcs.

fgf5 gene determines the coat phenotype. Let the gene be represented by the allele A. A determines long coat traits and it is dominant over its alternate form, b, which determines short coat trait.

Now, two merle (cmcs) dogs were mated. One is true-breeding for long coat (AA) while the other is true breeding for short coat (aa).

cmcsAA   x   cmcsaa

Progeny genotype = cmcsAa

cmcsAa = merle with long coat.

<em>Since </em><em>A</em><em> is dominant over </em><em>a,</em><em> all the progeny from the cross will be merle with long coat.</em>

When a person is exercising the body needs to deliver increased amounts of oxygen to the muscles. Which componentes f the blood
ad-work [718]

In human blood, there is a compound inside the RBCs called haemoglobin which ensures that the muscle will receive enough oxygen during exercise.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

In human blood, the red blood corpuscles contain the haemoglobin. Haemoglobin is a iron chelated compound containing porphyrin ring and a globin tail which can establish co-ordinate covalent bond with both oxygen and carbon dioxide. The bonding element depends on the concentration of these two gases. In lungs, where the oxygen concentration is more than carbon dioxide, the haemoglobin bonds with oxygen and brings it to the tissues where carbon dioxide concentration is more. This makes the haemoglobin to release oxygen and bond with carbon dioxide which is brought back to lungs. This is the process by which each and every tissue including the muscles recieve oxygen.

In muscles there is Myoglobin which is another iron-porphyrin compound which has several times more affinity for oxygen than haemoglobin. This helps to extract more oxygen from haemoglobin in muscles.

In a population with two alleles, B and b, the allele frequency of b is 0.4. B is dominant to b. What is the frequency of indivi
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

The frequency of the dominant (normal) allele in the population (p) is simply 1 - 0.02 = 0.98 (or 98%). The percentage of heterozygous individuals (carriers) in the population.

Genetic diversity

Explanation:

Sexual reproductions, mutation, and crossing-over generates a wide range of genetic diversity within a population.

  • Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in which gametes fuses to produce a fertile and viable offspring.
  • Mutation is the process of altering genetic sequences in population to production new breeds called mutants.
  • Crossing-over is the exchange of chromosomes between two homologous pairs.

All these processes ensures that a pool of diverse gene exists within a population in order give competitive and adaptability advantage to organisms.
