Can someone pls help me ​
frozen [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. Since both the parents are carriers, they have one allele that is the gene for the normal trait and one gene that is for the sickle cell trait. So the genotypes of the parents are Hh

b.   If we use a punnett square:

                    H            h

         H       HH           Hh

         h        Hh           hh

Genotypic ratio: 1 HH: 2Hh: 1hh

Phenotypic ratio:      1 normal blood cell: 2 sickle cell carriers: 1 sickle cell disease

Which one of the following statements is true of enzyme catalysts? A) Their catalytic activity is independent of pH. B) They are
muminat

Answer:

D) They can increase the reaction rate for a given reaction by a thousand-fold or more.

Explanation:

Enzymes are like catalysts with the only difference that they are bio-molecules. Biochemical/chemical reactions are slow because of 'transition state barriers' which require a lot of energy to overcome so enzymes rather than overcoming transition state barrier provide an alternate pathway for biochemical reactions which require comparatively less energy. Thus presence of an enzyme leads to an increase in reaction rate because alternate pathway which requires less energy makes the rate of chemical reaction rapid by a thousand-fold or more.

Explain the relationship between crossing over and genetic variation
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

When homologous chromosomes form pairs during prophase I of meiosis I, crossing-over can occur. Crossing-over is the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes. It results in new combinations of genes on each chromosome. It is obviously another source of genetic variation in offspring.
