Answer:
Chromosomes are the structures found in the nucleus of a cell. They are made from DNA, containing hereditary information in the form of genes that control how an organism will look and behave.
Chromosomes come in homologous pairs (one from each parent) that each contain thousands of genes, determining traits expressed in the offspring.
Explanation:
Chromosomes are the structures found in the nucleus of a cell. They are made from DNA, containing hereditary information in the form of genes that control how an organism will look and behave. - this is true. Prior to cell division, DNA molecules are organized into large structures called chromosomes. Specific regions of a DNA molecule are called genes. These dictate specific proteins which control our traits.
Genes contain thousands of chromosomes that carry specific information about building proteins for a particular trait. - this is false - genes are segments of DNA that control specific traits by dictating the structure and functions of proteins. Chromosomes contain thousands of genes
Chromosomes are small sections of DNA that contain specific information about a trait to build proteins that people inherit. The thousands of different chromosomes passed from the parents allow for humans to look uniquely different.
- this is false - chromosomes are large structures, genes are the relatively small sections of DNA. Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, not thousands.
Chromosomes come in homologous pairs (one from each parent) that each contain thousands of genes, determining traits expressed in the offspring. - this is true. In diploid organisms, like humans, have two copies of each chromosome. These chromosomes contain slightly different versions of genes, which make us unique.
I believe the answers are A. C. D.
A mushroom or a mold commonly reproduces asexually by the formation of spores. Spores are produced in the sporangium through mitosis involving only one parent. They are released from the parent and germinate into new a mushroom or a mold. The offspring are genetically identical to that parent because their formation do not involve meiosis and fertilization. Spores allow fungi to expand their distribution and colonize new environments.
The best answer is D.
Hormones are chemical messengers secreted mostly into blood and also extracellular fluid by specialized tissue of the endocrine system and affect the functioning of other tissues or cells.
Most hormones circulate in blood and come in contact with essentially all cells, but a particular hormone will only affect a limited number of cells, which are termed as target cells to that hormone.
A target cell responds to a particular hormone because it bears receptors for that hormone.
For example the red blood cells have receptors for the hormone called insulin which is produced by the pancreas. The red cells are able to take in glucose when their receptors bind to insulin.
Answer: D. 100%
Explanation:
One parent is with is a true breeding blue flowering plants this means the two alleles of the genotype are homozygous dominant alleles (BB).
The other parent is a true breeding with flowering plant, this means the two alleles of the genotype are homozygous recessive alleles (BB).
When both parents are crossed, the possible genotype outcome is
B B * b b
Bb Bb Bb Bb
Therefore since the blue flowering plant allele (B) is dominant to the white flowering plant allele (b) the probability of an offspring outcome to be a blue flowering plant is 4/4 which is 100%.44
Answer is 100%
