The units of genetic distance derived from bacterial conjugation studies are called minutes. Bacterial conjugation is the process by which a bacterium transfers genetic materials to another through direct contact. One bacterium serves as a donor of the genetic material and the other serves as the recipient.

Rina8888 [55]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

Question: A gene for corn has two alleles, one for yellow kernels and one for white kernels. Cross pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. Which term best describes the relationship between the two alleles?

a) Incomplete dominance

b) Genetic recombination

c) Chimerism

d) Codominance

Answer:

d) codominance

Explanation:

Codominance is a pattern of inheritance when none of the alleles of a gene is able to mask the expression of the other allele of the same gene. When the two alleles are present together in a heterozygous genotype, both are expressed and the phenotype of the heterozygote is different from both the pure breeding parents. In the given example, cross-pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in the ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. This means that the heterozygote expresses both the allele for the corn color. Therefore, it represents codominance.

Kiko writes a report to compare and contrast the cells of plants and animals. Which of the following statements is accurate and
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Vacuoles in plants are much larger than those in animals.

Explanation:

The cell membrane of animals is not thicker than those in plants. In addition, plant cells have a thick cell wall surrounding the cell membrane that is made of cellulose and provides great protection against osmotic and mechanical stress.

Vacuoles in plants ARE much larger than vacuoles in animals, because plant cells r<u>equire much more water</u> and other substances to function properly. Animals, on the other hand, can ingest water and nutrients through food.

Animal cells DO have chromosomes. Every organism has chromosomes in their cells: prokaryotes have one single circular chromosome, while eukaryotes have many linear chromosomes (humans, for example, have 46 chromosomes).

Plant cells HAVE chloroplasts, as these organelles are crucial, since they participate in the process of photosynthesis - which is fundamental for the nourishment of the plant.

The statement that belongs in Kiko's report is Vacuoles in plants are much larger than those in animals.
