You have 3 turtles, each with a mutation that causes them to have a strange polka dotted pattern on their shells. Assume all 3 m

utations are homozygous recessive. You discover that turtle 1 and turtle 3 have mutations in the same gene, while turtle 1 and turtle 2 have mutations in different genes.What phenotype would you expect from crosses between:

True [87]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Cross between 1 and turtle 3 produces offspring with same polka pattern as parents have.

Similarly Cross between 1 and turtle 2 produces no strange polka pattern.

Explanation:

As all three turtles have homozygous mutation. These mutations causes the polka dotted pattern on shells.

Turtle 1 and Turtle 3 both have mutation on same gene so they also have same polka dotted pattern. On crossing these two Turtles produce same polka dotted phenotype pattern.

Turtle 1 and Turtle 2 have mutations on different genes. These different genes control different characters of shell pattern hence crossing between Turtle 1 and turtle 2 produces no strange polka dotted pattern as strange polka dotted pattern always appears in homozygus repressive condition. Genes during crossing not pass in pair hence offspring contain one mutant allele of gene coming from one turtle and one normal allele of gene coming from other turtle.

<u>Results</u>

Cross between 1 and turtle 3 produces offspring with same polka pattern as parents have.

Similarly Cross between 1 and turtle 2 produces no strange polka pattern.

You are on vacation and see an organism that you do not recognize. discuss what possible steps you can take to classify it.
bija089 [108]

Taxonomy is the branch of Science, in which we study the Classification of Organisms. On discovering an unknown organism, begin classification by looking for anatomical features that appear to have the same function as those found on other species.

In order to correctly classify an organism, scientists use many modern tools.

1.Morphology describes the physical characteristics of an organism. Typically, this is enough information to place the organism within a domain and kingdom.

2.DNA and biochemical analysis allow scientists to test less visible, but distinguishing, characteristics.

3.Comparing embryology allows scientists to group organisms that share common fetal development.

<span>4.Evolutionary phylogeny describes the evolutionary relationships between organisms.</span>These relationships are deduced based on shared traits that may have been passed from ancestor to new species. Traits may include physical traits (ex. presence of jaws), or may be genetic traits (shared genes).

lara31 [8.8K]
<span>worst thing that can happen in the modern environmentalism according to Jones is that how people treat will respond to you based on your color and status. People think that you are stupid because you are poor, that's why the amount of help that poor people receive if there's a disaster is very limited.

A student conducted an experiment in science class by placing a closed plastic baggie of starch into a large container of iodine
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

The iodine might have got into the bag by the process of diffusion/osmosis.

<em>In the process of diffusion, particles move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration along a concentration gradient. </em>

As we know, the iodine solution in the large container had more particles of iodine whereas the baggie had none of the iodine solution. As a result, a concentration gradient developed due to which iodine solution moved into the baggie through the process of diffusion or osmosis.

How can high and low eq affect your ability to learn?
Norma-Jean [14]
<span>Emotional quotient (EQ) , which is a measure of emotional intelligence (EI) , is the ability to to identify one's own emotions including the ability to differentiate and decipher emotions in people, pictures, voices, and cultural artifacts. The ability to process information of an emotional nature and relate those emotions to a wider cognition ability differ in humans. People with higher eq are more self-aware, this enables them to harness the mood (strength, lerthagy, weakness) during learning. They can tell based on the emotions of respondents whether the atmosphere is conducive for learning or not. A person with a high eq can capitalize fully upon his or her changing moods and others to best fit the task at hand. It enables them to harness emotions to facilitate various cognitive activities, such as thinking and problem solving. Unlike someone with low eq a person with high eq can harness emotions, even negative ones, and manage them to achieve intended goals.</span>
