jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

When we talk about the inheritance of traits, or the passage of traits from parents to future generations down the line, we are not just talking about the visual (phenotypical) expression of those traits, but also, their underlying explanation, which is the genotype. A genotype is basically how the genes of the parents combine in such a way that the children inherit a set of traits from the parents, and express them phenotypically, or not.

In the case of blood types, we have four phenotypic groups: A, B and O. Each one of these types is characterized by the underlying set of genes that are responsible for what is expressed. While the O blood type presents a genotype ii, which is recessive, the A and B types will have the following genetic patterns: Ia Ia, or, Ia i (characteristic of the O genetic material) for the A type and: Ib Ib, or Ib i, for the B type. When there is a genetic conjugation from parents genetic material, regarding blood type, we would have these sets of genes combining. In most of the possible combinations genetically speaking, we have the recessive i gene appearing, including in the A and B dominant blood types. This means that when crossed, there will always be a chance of at least one offspring presenting the O blood type, even if one of the parents is dominant A, or B.

In answer: it is the fact that all three types present the recessive allele i, typical of the O blood type, that when pairings of genes happen between parents, the genetic characteristic of the O type may present itself in a dominant fashion, instead of the usual recessive pattern.

Which sequence furthers scientific knowledge? Hypotheses generate a scientific question, leading to observations, which can be t
Greeley [361]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Observations generate a scientific question, leading to a hypothesis, which can be tested through an experiment.

Explanation:

In any scientific knowledge development process, scientists need to follow the scientific process in a particular sequence that helps in developing and testing a hypothesis.

The sequence has:

observation: Observation requires you to pay attention to occurrences around

Forming question: on the basis of observation form a question about why that occurrence happens.

Hypothesis formation: The hypothesis is your initial prediction on why that happens.

Experiment: The experiment is being done in order to collect data and analysis so you can test your hypothesis

Where do light-independent reactions occur during photosynthesis?
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The light-independent reactions of photosynthesis take place within the stroma. It contains enzymes that work with ATP and NADPH to “fix” carbon from carbon dioxide into molecules that can be used to build glucose. The chloroplast’s own genetic material (separate from that of the cell) is also stored in the stroma.

The interior of the chloroplast contains another membrane—the thylakoid membrane—which is folded to form numerous connected stacks of discs. Each disc is a thylakoid and each stack is a granum (pl. grana).

The light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis take place within the thylakoids. These reactions occur when the pigment chlorophyll, located within the thylakoid membranes, captures energy from the sun (photons) to initiate the breakdown of water molecules.

Dna polymerase fails to recognize that an incorrect nucleotide has been incorporated, resulting in a mismatch. which repair path
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:mismatch repair

Explanation:proof reading is a process through which the mistakes that were made during the process of replication of DNA are corrected and if they are corrected after replication of DNA the process is called mismatch repair .

DNA Mismatch repair also called as MMR is a system for recognizing and repairing the DNA for unwanted insertion, deletion, and mis-incorporation of bases that can arise during DNA replication and recombination, as well as repairing some forms of DNA damage.
