Iteru [2.4K]3 years ago

Answer:  Disadvantages: Adult stem cells have a determined cell type and cannot be changed into tissues that differ from the ones that they came from. This limits the cells by allowing them to be used only in procedures that involve the same type of tissue that they came from.

Explanation: They are difficult culture in vitro, impossible for some cell types, and they are fairly difficult to get using other methods because it requires a sample of the tissue that is specific to that cell type. Generally to get a sample of tissue it needs to be removed from the body, requiring surgery in most cases. Even when they are successfully cultured in-vitro, adult stem cells have a shorter life than embryonic stem cells.

Traits controlled by organellar dna do not show mendelian inheritance because
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

In mendelian inheritance, the alleles for a gene show normal dominant-recessive relationship. Chromosomes also show crossover due to which new random combination of traits is possible in the offspring. This crossover takes place between homologous chromosomes during meiosis I.

Organellar DNA like the ones present in mitochondria and chloroplast do not follow mendelian inheritance because unlike nuclear chromosomes they do not have cross over events. There is no orderly segregation of alleles during meiosis. Traits controlled by them are usually inherited as it is and usually it is from the maternal parent because paternal gamete like sperm does not contain mitochondria.
