Answer:

Explanation:

A dominant allele produces a character that is expressed (phenotypically) to the total exclusion of the other allele's character. This means the dominant allele overshadows the recessive allele.

Homozygous allele is having the exact same alleles of a particular gene. For instance, having two dominant or having two recessive alleles in a gene.

Heterozygous allele is having two different allele of a particular gene. Here, both dominant and recessive alleles are present in the gene.

Genotype is the genetic make up of an individual organism

Phenotype is the physical characteristics of an individual expressed as a result of genotype.

From the above explanation. it can be deduced that

1) <u>Homozygous dominant:</u>

Genotype: YY

Phenotype: The pea plant is yellow because both alleles are expressed for yellow colour in the plant

2) <u>Homozygous recessive:</u>

Genotype: yy

Phenotype: The pea plant is green because both alleles are expressed for green colour in the plant

3) <u>Heterozygous:</u>

Genotype: Yy

Phenotype: The pea plant is yellow because the dominant allele here is Y which is the allele expressed for yellow colour

Homozygous Dominant: YY

- A pure yellow pea pod

Homozygous Recessive: yy

- A pure green pea pod

Heterozygous: Yy

A yellow pea pod.


Recessive traits are only displayed when the genotype contains two recessive alleles.

How do scientists determine the depth of the ocean?
IgorC [24]

Explanation:

The most common and fastest way of measuring ocean depth uses sound. Ships using technology called sonar, which stands for sound navigation and ranging, can map the topography of the ocean floor. The device sends sound waves to the bottom of the ocean and measures how long it takes for an echo to return.

Answer:

Human milk oligosaccharides act as a soluble decoy receptors which is responsible for the blockage of bonds between enteric pathogens and epithelial cells which helps in reducing the risk of infection caused by retrovirus.

Explanation:

Human milk oligosaccharides are the sugar molecules which cannot be digested by the body of newly born baby. These sugar molecules remove the harmful viruses which are present in the gut of infant and the baby is save from infection.

Which of the following is NOT a principle of splinting that must be considered by the EMT?
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The principle that is not considered by EMT is B. <em>Gently replace protruding bone ends back beneath the skin to prevent further contamination.</em>

<em>Explanation:</em>

A. Check the distal neurovascular function before and after splinting. TRUE. This is important because the patient should not be neurovascularly compromised at the moment of the splinting and after splinting. There are different techniques to measure this, by marking pulse in the injured leg or arm.

B. Gently replace protruding bone ends back beneath the skin to prevent further contamination. FALSE. This is a <em>controversial point</em>. In general, it is recommended not to move the person and the affected area or bones, and NOT TO REPLACE the bone, aline it or push it back to its original place. It is important to immobilize the affected area in the position it was found to relieve the pain and avoid more damage.

C. Splint an isolated extremity injury before moving the patient to the stretcher. TRUE. The injured body area must be splinted in the same position the patient was found. If the patient is comfortable, he/she should not be moved before splitting.

D. Immobilize the site of an extremity injury from the joint above it to the joint below it. TRUE. This is important to prevent any movement. The split must include both the joints, the above one and the below one.
