A frog has a genetic mutation in its skin cells that causes part of its skin to turn orange. The frog will not pass this genetic

mutation onto its offspring because
parents do not contribute genetic material to their offspring.

skin cells do not contribute genetic material to sex cells.

mutated skin cells cannot divide and produce daughter skin cells.

the offspring will inherit skin cells from the other parent.

Answer : The correct answer is -

skin cells do not contribute genetic material to sex cells.

Sex cells are the haploid, reproductive cells (also known as gametes, such as sperms and egg) that are produced by parents through gametogenesis (oogenesis in female and spermatogenesis in male).

They are crucial for reproduction in sexually reproducing organisms (like humans) as they fuse together and form a diploid zygote (containing the genetic material of each parent) which develops into fetus.

On the other hand, skin cells are the somatic cells (that are diploid) and do not contribute in the reproductive cycle.

This means that their genetic material is not contributed to the sex cells.

Thus, the frog with genetic mutation in its skin cells will not pass it to the offspring.

Marina CMI [18]

The body was preserved because the body was frozen in the cold temperature of the Alps shortly after he died and remained frozen until it was found.

<h3>How is a body preserved?</h3>

It is common to observe that bodies are often preserved at a very low temperature hence the body was preserved because the body was frozen in the cold temperature of the Alps shortly after he died and remained frozen until it was found.

The reason why the AIDs virus which contains RNA, to insert into the DNA of a host of T-cells after the AIDs virus enters the cell is because of receptor proteins located on the surface of the virus.

The organism that lacks the ability to maintain their own metabolic pathways and can only reproduce inside of a host cell are the viruses.

________ allow materials to be exchanged between the blood and tissues, ________ carry blood towards the heart, and ________ car
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

b.  Capillaries; veins; arteries

Explanation:

Capillaries are the blood vessels with very thin walls. They serve as a site for an exchange of substances such as respiratory gases, nutrients, and toxins between the blood and the cells of the tissues. Veins are the blood vessels that mostly pick the deoxygenated blood from the body cells and deliver it to the heart for oxygenation. On the other hand, arteries are the blood vessels that mostly carry the oxygen-rich blood. They pick the oxygenated blood from the heart and deliver it to body cells. Therefore, veins carry blood towards the heart while arteries carry it away from the heart.

Design an experiment where you would determine how quickly lactaid works to break down milk sugar at different temperatures
choli [55]
1. Gather 11 cups and then fill each cup with 5 ounces of whole milk, next is take the first cup to add a known quantity of lactaid. As a control, take another cup and do not add any lactaid. After 1minute, pour a known quantity of Benedicts into cups of milk. Record the color (blue is the least amount of glucose progressing to green, then yellow, orange, red, and brick red/brown). Take another cup of milk and then add the lactaid and wait 5minutes next is add the Benedicks. Record the color, repeat steps 7-10 adding 5minutes each time until there are no cups left (15 minutes, 20, 25,30,35,40,45).
For the last is Graph the data and form conclusions.
