koban [17]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

<h2>Genotype is the set of genes( allele) of an organism. </h2><h2>Phenotype is the physical expression of the genetic composition of an organism. </h2>

Explanation:

Genotype: 1. It is the genetic composition of an organism, means it is the set of genes( allels) of an organism's DNA, which is responsible for a particular trait of an organism.  

2. Genotypically, an organism can be homozygous(dominant or recessive) or heterozygous.  Some Alleles are dominant over other, means some can  be dominant or other can be recessive.  

3. Genes are responsible for all the traits in an organism, and these traits are inheritable. All the offsprings inherit all traits from their parents.  

Phenotype: 1. Physical expression of the genetic composition of an organism resulted as  phenotype.

2. It  is the physical expression of genes (alleles) which are responsible for any trait.

What is cell surface to volume ratio and why is it important in cell functioning? Can it explain why cells are so small?
MrMuchimi
<span>The main reason surface area to volume ratio is important to a cell is because the surface area to volume ratio determines the rate at which cells uptake nutrients, liquids or gases. For instance, I have two organisms, A and B. Organism A has a surface area to volume ratio of 6:1, whereas organism B has a surface area to volume ratio of 3:1. As organism A has a greater surface area to volume ratio, it means that organism A will be able to take up nutrients, liquids or gases via diffusion or osmosis at a greater rate than organism B, as it has more surface with which to exchange nutrients, liquids or gases. </span>

A single-celled eukaryotic organism that is neither a consumer nor a decomposer would most likely be classified in _____.
DedPeter [7]

A single-celled eukaryotic organism that is neither a consumer nor a decomposer would most likely be classified in Kingdom Protista.

Kingdom protista:

  • The classification of a third kingdom, separate from animals and plants was first proposed by John Hogg in 1860 as the kingdom Protista; in 1866 Ernst Haeckel also proposed a third kingdom Protista as "the kingdom of primitive forms".
  • Originally these also included prokaryotes, but with time these were removed to a fourth kingdom Monera.
  • In the popular five-kingdom scheme proposed by Robert Whittaker in 1969, Protista was defined as eukaryotic "organisms which are unicellular or unicellular-colonial and which form no tissues", and the fifth kingdom Fungi was established.
  • In the five-kingdom system of Lynn Margulis, the term protist is reserved for microscopic organisms, while the more inclusive kingdom Protoctista (or protoctists) included certain large multicellular eukaryotes, such as kelp, red algae, and slime molds.
  • Some use the term protist interchangeably with Margulis's protoctist, to encompass both single-celled and multicellular eukaryotes, including those that form specialized tissues but do not fit into any of the other traditional kingdoms.
