Biology
2 answers:
Anna71 [15]3 years ago

Answer:

a. 100% of the offspring will have the Bb genotype

Explanation:

In a BB x bb cross, the one with BB genotype produces B gamete, while the other only produces b gamete.

Therefore, the zygote in this cross has Bb genotype.

Answer:

a.

100% of the offspring will have the Bb genotype

Explanation:

This cross involves a single gene that has two alternative forms called ALLELES. One allele is 'B' and the other is 'b'. In the cross, both parents are purebreeding or homozygous i.e. they contain identical alleles for a particular trait (BB and bb). Therefore, according to Mendel's law of segregation, the alleles of each parent will separate into gametes during meiosis.

Parent 'BB' will produce gametes containing allele 'B' while parent 'bb' will produce gametes containing allele 'b'. Each gametes will then combine randomly. Since only gametes B and b are produced by each parent, all the offsprings produced will have a heterozygous genotype: Bb. Hence, 100% of the F1 offsprings will possess Bb genotype.

In the context of brain-tissue implants, what is unique about stem cells? they survive for extended periods outside of the body.
yan [13]
The correct answer is "<span>they can develop into most types of human cells".

Stem cells are cells that are undifferentiated to what function they may serve, depending on the tissue where it will develop in to. In the context of brain tissue implants, these stem cells can develop into brain cells or nerve cells or neurons which comprises the functional brain tissue; this is clinically significant as neurons are not capable of replacing themselves if damaged.</span>

Evidence suggests that there is a relationship between ancient dinosaurs and modern birds. Through time, each occurrence of a ne
damaskus [11]

The answer is mutation of genes.  The mutations were beneficial and gave the individuals of  the population advantage and hence increased their survival. The classic features of birds evolved one by one and gave birds advantage over their dinosaurs counterparts, especially the feature of small size.

7. Population growth is limited by density-dependent factors such as
Leni [432]

Answer: D.)Biotic and Abiotic factors

Explanation: <em><u>The living things in an ecosystem are called biotic factors. Living things include plants, animals, bacteria, fungi and more. The non living parts of an ecosystem are called abiotic factors. In an ecosystem some abiotic factors are sunlight, temperature atmospheric gases water and soil. These would not limit pop growth as much as predation and disease. </u></em>

What are the Reproductive Barriers that keep species separate?
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

C. habitat isolation; temporal isolation; behavioral isolation; mechanical isolation; gamete isolation.

Explanation:

Reproductive Barriers may be of any type which includes habitat isolation; temporal isolation; behavioral isolation; mechanical isolation; gamete isolation. All these examples are categorized under prezygotic barriers.

Habitat isolation: It occurs in case of allopatric speciation, initially all the members of a species can mate with each other but later on due to geographic barriers like due to a rift, their habitat separates and they cannot mate with each other and later on they evolve as separate species.

Temporal isolation: In temporal isolation, reproductive barrier is different time/season of breeding like American toads and Fowler's toad both are closely related and have potential to mate but due to different mating season they are unable to mate with each other. American toads mate during summers while Fowler's toad mate during late summers.

Behavioral isolation: When the members of two closely related species behave and respond to different mating behavior, it is known as behavioral isolation. For example breeding calls.

Mechanical isolation: Mechanical isolation occurs because of structural or chemical barriers. For example: when the shape of pollinator does not match with that of flower then the male gametes will not be able to reach to the egg cell.

Gamete isolation: When the gametes are unable to fuse due to any reason like less mobility of sperm in the female reproductive tract.
