Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

All the offspring have genotype RrTt

Phenotype is Pink and tall snapdragon

Explanation:

Given

Tallness ( T) is dominant to dwarfness (t)

Red (R) flower color is dominant to white (r)

It is given that heterozygous condition results in pink (Rr) flower color which means that the allels for color of flower show co dominance

Genotype of dwarf red snapdragon is RRtt

Genotype of a plant homozygous for tallness and white flowers is rrTT

The punnet square representing the cross between RRtt and rrTT is as given below-

Rt     Rt         Rt     Rt

rT RrTt      RrTt RrTt    RrTt

rT RrTt      RrTt RrTt    RrTt

rT RrTt      RrTt RrTt    RrTt

rT RrTt      RrTt RrTt    RrTt  

Thus all the offspring have genotype RrTt

Phenotype is Pink and tall snapdragon

Under what conditions does the trp repressor block transcription of the trp operon? (A) when the repressor binds to the inducer
Brilliant_brown [7]

The trp repressor blocks transcription of the trp operon (B) when the repressor binds to tryptophan.

trp operon or the tryptophan operon codes enzymes for the amino acid tryptophan. The operon is on when the tryptophan is low in amount whereas the operon is off when the tryptophan is low in amount. The operon is an assimilation of five genes.

Repressor is a small protein that is supposed to prevent the synthesis of proteins. It does so binding to the operator gene. Therefore, presence or absence of repressor is a determining factor for an operon to be on or off.

During embryonic development, the vertebral column is replaced by the notochord.
Reptile [31]

Hello! The answer is false.

It is actually the opposite. The notochord is a primitive axial skeleton, and in humans, it disappears. It eventually becomes part of the vertebral column, which is the backbone that we have today.

Hope this helps!

Anastaziya [24]

Complete question: A phylogenetic tree shows that birds and crocodiles share many features. A hypothesis based on this tree predicts that these features are present in a common ancestor. Which of these predicted traits is supported by fossil evidence?

A) four-chambered heart

B) singing for territory

C) eggs and nests

D) singing to attract mates

Answer: (c) eggs and nests

Explanation:

A hypothesis based on phylogenetic tree shows that birds and crocodiles have ancestral connection. Fossil evidence shows that their common ancestor exhibit oviparity as a means of reproduction (i.e. laying of eggs and embryo develops within the egg), and also housed their eggs in the nest for protection against predators and other important reasons.

Glia that provide myelin for neurons in the brain are called ________.
kati45 [8]

Answer:

oligodendrocytes

Explanation:

Glial cells are part of the nervous system. These are helper cells that support the function of the central nervous system (CNS) and can be called oligodendrocytes when they supply myelin to neurons.  These cells are responsible for producing the myelin sheath have the function of electrical insulator for CNS neurons. They have extensions that wrap around the axons, producing the myelin sheath.

It is estimated that there are 10 glia cells in the CNS for each neuron, but because of their small size, they occupy half the volume of nervous tissue. They differ in form and function and they are: oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, Schwann cells, ependymal cells, and microglia.
