No, it would not be possible since both alleles in the genotype are recessive. If the alleles were xx for square jaws, then
x x
x xx xx
x xx xx
would be the possible genotypes for the offspring
A. Cuz the school gets money from the state
Answer:
The answer is A.
Explanation:
Since only 1 of the options is wrong, i assume you are looking for that one.
Two types of immunity systems, innate immunity and adaptive immunity. Adaptive immunity is formed when it is exposed to a harmful substance, vaccines for example create adaptive immunity.
Innate immunity is present at birth which consists our skin protects us physically, chemical substances in our blood that protect us from bacteria and infections and also our blood cells such as T cells.
Since innate immunity forms one of the first lines of defense in our immune system and is the first to respond to a threat in a few hours down to as little as minutes, it is not slower than adaptive immunity in its response to infections and pathogens.
I hope this answer helps.
Answer:
This question lacks options, the options are:
A. Only recessive alleles are inherited from homozygous parents.
B. Dominant alleles grow weaker as they are passed from parents to offspring.
C. Only the parent with a dominant allele can pass that allele to offspring in sexual reproduction.
D. A heterozygous parent has an equal chance of passing either the dominant allele or the recessive allele to offspring.
The answer is D
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for hair length in dogs. The allele for short hair (S) is dominant over the allele for long hair (s). This means that allele 'S' will always mask the phenotypic expression of allele 's' in a heterozygous state.
According to the question, two heterozygous dogs (Ss) were crossed to produce 6 shortt-haired offsprings and 2 long-haired offsprings. An heterozygous organism is that which contains two different alleles for a particular gene i.e. a combination of dominant and recessive alleles.
Based on this, during meiosis or gamete formation, an heterozygous dog (Ss) will produce gametes with the short hair allele (S) and long hair allele (s) in equal proportion i.e. 50-50. When the two gametes containing the recessive alleles (s) produced by each heterozygous parent fuses, an offspring with a recessive phenotype (long hair, ss) is produced.
Hence, a long-hair
phenotype can appear in the offspring of two short-haired dogs because a heterozygous parent has equal chance of passing either the dominant or recessive allele to the offspring.
