Answer:

11. D.

12. A.

13. D.

14. B.

15. A.

16. B.

17. B.

18. Refer to the explanation (I highlighted it so you can browse easier)

19. B.

20. C.

Explanation:

11. Codominance is a non-mendelian inheritance pattern. It is when two dominant traits are inherited and both are expressed in the organism. Because both are dominant, a blended expression of the trait results in the off-springs.

12. Look at the cross for this problem below:

XHXh and XHY

      XH        Y

XH XHXH  <em>XHY</em>

Xh XHXh   <em>XhY</em>

<em></em>

The mother is a carrier, so that means she is heterozygous for the trait hemophilia. Look at the sections with XY. We see that a son can inherit the recessive trait and the other does not.

13. The two main stages of the cell cycle would be interphase and mitosis. Interphase is the phase of the cell-cycle where the cell prepares for cell division. It is at interphase where DNA is duplicated and the cell grows. Mitosis is the actual phase where division takes place.

14. The Human Genome Project or HGP is a collaborative research program that aims to determine the COMPLETE sequence of the human DNA and to identify the locations of the genes in the sections of all chromosomes. It also aims to create maps that link inherited traits across generations.

15. Recombination is a genetic process where DNA is broken down and then recombined to poduce different traits in the off-springs. This can be done between different organisms to produce combined traits.

16. From mRNA, the sequence is translated by the tRNA or transfer RNA. The tRNA carry amino acids that code for specific sequences. These amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.

17. 3-letter sequences in mRNA code for a specific amino acid. These are collectively known as codons. These codons match up with anti-codons of tRNA which code for specific amino acids.

<em>18. For this problem, you did not provide a Punnet but I can help you out by showing you the different possible crosses because the answer would depend on the cross. Look at the attached image. </em>

<em>If your problem is like CROSS 1 then the answer would be 75 percent would be Purple and 25 percent would be white. </em>

<em>If your problem is like CROSS 2 then the answer would be ALL will be purple.</em>

<em>If your problem is like CROSS 3 or CROSS 4, the answer would be half of the offspring will have purple and half would have white. </em>

19. Cells interact with other cells nearby and throughout the body depending on what needs to be done. Cells can interact with nearby cells directly, or they can do this chemically or through other processes as well, especially when they are far apart.

20. Females receive X chromosomes from both parents. Females have a pair of X chromosomes. Going back to your problem, because the trait is recessive and the mother is only a carrier and the father is not a carrier, the chances of a female off-spring inheriting the trait would be 50%. You can look at the cross below:

XHXh and XHY

      XH        Y

XH XHXH  XHY

Xh XHXh    XhY

As you can see in the cross, one of the daughters did not receive the recessive trait XHXH.

Answer: mountain roads are winding and gently sloping in order to reduce the effect of steepness which causes more downward gravitational pull to the vehicle on it . A steeper sloped road would slow the car down to a greater extent that an gently sloping one.

Veronica wrote Charles Darwin’s main points on the board, but she made a mistake in one point.
Leno4ka [110]

<span>The question above is incomplete, the remaining part of the question is given below:
1. Since more offspring are produced than an environment can support, organisms within a population must compete for resources to survive.

2. Due to variations within the population, some competitors will be better equipped for survival than others.

3. The best-equipped organisms will survive and will produce well-equipped offspring. 

4. Variations that help with survival will be passed on to future generations and will rapidly change the whole population.

Which point is flawed as written above?
A. point 1
B. point 2
C. point 3
D. point 4</span>

ANSWER

The correct option is D.

All the options written above about Darwin's theory are quite correct with the exception of option D. Charles Darwin was the scientist who proposed the theory of evolution by mean of natural selection. Darwin submitted that, due to the scarcity of needed resources in an environment, it is only the fittest individuals in a particular population that will be able to survive and produce offspring that share their adaptability features. As this continue from generation to generation, it leads to evolution, which is defined as the changes overtime, which give rise to new species that share a common ancestors. Contrary to the point made in option D, evolution by natural selection is not a rapid process at all, it is a process that occur over a long period of time.
