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.

I think it is A as well because skin cells do not contribute genetic material to sex cells.

At the end of a shift, a labor and delivery nurse leaves a woman in labor before the nurse's replacement arrives. what kind of n
mixas84 [53]
The answer to the question above is ABANDONMENT. This is the kind of negligence that the labor and delivery nurse made when she left the patient in labor before the replacement nurse arrives. Patient abandonment happens when the health care provider (e.g. nurse) terminates the provision of care despite the continuous care that the patient needs. Because once the health care provider starts the provision of care, he or she should continue this care until the patient stabilizes or recovers. This kind of negligence is stated in the code of ethics for health care professionals.
