How are mosquitos infected with Wolbachia?

Biology
1 answer:
bazaltina [42]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:Wolbachia can only be transmitted from parent to offspring inside the female's egg. When a male mosquito that carries Wolbachia mates with a female without the bacteria then that female's eggs don't hatch. Wolbachia-infected female mosquitoes, however, produce normal numbers of offspring – which carry Wolbachia.

Compared the Mendelian Dominance, how to incomplete dominance and codominance increase the number of phenotypes? Provide an exam
REY [17]

Answer/Explanation:

<h3>Incomplete dominance</h3>

In incomplete dominance, one allele is not entirely dominant over the other, so heterozygotes (organisms with two different alleles for the gene) show an intermediate or blended phenotype.

For example, consider flower colour.

  • If the allele for red flowers (R) was dominant over the allele for white flowers (r), then there are three possible genotypes (RR, Rr, and rr) and two possible phenotypes. (Red (RR and Rr) and white (rr)).
  • However, if the allele for red flowers (R) was incompletely dominant over the allele for white flowers (r), then there are three possible genotypes (RR, Rr, rr), and three possible phenotypes (red (RR), white (rr), and pink (Rr))
<h3>Co-dominance</h3>

In incomplete dominance, two alleles are both expressed, one is not dominant over the other. Therefore, heterozygotes (organisms with two different alleles for the gene) express both traits.

For example, consider flower patterns.

  • If the allele for spots (F) was dominant over the allele for stripes (f), then there are three possible genotypes (FF, Ff, and ff) and two possible phenotypes. (Spots (Ff and ff) and stripes (ff)).
  • However, if the allele for spots (F) was co-dominant to the allele for stripes (f), then there are three possible genotypes (FF, Ff, ff), and three possible phenotypes (spots (FF), stripes (ff), and spots and stripes (Ff))

Where were fossils found in the mississippian time period
jekas [21]

Answer:

Mississippian fossils are abundant in portions of the Midwest and South and include vast beds of limestone and marble.

Explanation:

For example, the domed ceiling of the Jefferson Memorial in Washington, D.C., is made of Indiana limestone that was deposited during the Mississippian Period.By the end of the Carboniferous, reptiles had migrated well toward the interior of Pangea. These early pioneers went on to spawn the archosaurs, pelycosaurs, and therapsids of the ensuing Permian period. (It was the archosaurs that went on to spawn the first dinosaurs nearly a hundred million years later.)

What would happen if Jupiter's gravitational pull increased
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The amount of mass that planet Jupiter has in the solar system makes it approximately five times larger than all other planets in it. As Jupiter’s gravity pulled on another planet tightly, its diameter grew and it expanded. The density and gravity continued to increase, resulting in even more planet compression.

As a mollusc, the animal probably has a mantle and a radula.

Molluscs are aquatic species that belong to the phylum of Mollusca. Mollusca is one of the biggest and most diverse phyla of the sea.  

A mantle is a term that describes the fold in their body which secretes the hard protective shell of their body. A radula is a toothed structure (similar to the tongue) used to collect food.
