In fruit flies, the allele for white eyes is recessive to the allele for red eyes. In a generation of fruit flies, 45 males with

white eyes, 46 females with white eyes, 44 males with red eyes, and 47 females with red eyes are produced. Which of the following is the best conclusion you can make about the parents of this generation?
A.) One parent was heterozygous for eye color and the other was homozygous with red eyes.
B.) Both parents were homozygous with red eyes.
C.) One parent had white eyes and the other was heterozygous for eye color.
D.) Both parents were heterozygous for eye color.

<span>heterozygous / homozygous refers to whether both alleles for a gene are the same. The organism is homozygous if both alleles are the same - that is, either both are dominant or both are recessive. The organism is heterozygous if the alleles are different - that is, if one allele is dominant and the other allele is recessive..
 the answer to the questions is A. </span><span>One parent was heterozygous for eye color and the other was homozygous with red eyes.</span>

Exposure of zebrafish nuclei to meiotic cytosol resulted in phosphorylation of NEP55 and L68 proteins by cyclin-dependent kinase
Tpy6a [65]

Answer: THEY ARE INVOLVED IN THE DISASSEMBLY OF THE NUCLEAR ENVELOPE

Explanation: The disassembly of the nuclear envelope is triggered by the cyclin‐dependent kinase at the onset of mitosis. At this point, Integral nuclear membrane proteins diffuse/move into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) after nuclear envelope breakdown. The nuclear envelope reassembles around compact chromosome mass at late anaphase/telophase and the chromosomes condenses and become visible.

Mutations in DNA include deletions and insertions. These types of mutations:
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

(A). Result in different amino acids to be read due to frame shifts

Explanation:

Insertion or deletion mutations (or Indel mutations) can be defined as mutations in DNA due to insertion (addition) or deletion of nucleotide bases in DNA.  

These mutations lead to change in reading frames (sequence of codons), which leads to formation of protein having completely different amino acid sequence. Hence, these mutations are also cause frameshift mutations.

This is due due to triplet nature of genetic codes as insertion or deletion of one or more bases (but not three) would change change in codon sequence and mutated sequence can form a non-functional or truncated protein.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).

What are short-lived climate pollutants?
professor190 [17]

Answer:

Black carbon, tropospheric ozone, methane, and hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) are all considered short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs). Because these pollutants have atmospheric lifetimes of only days to a decade and a half (compared to CO2 which can persist in the atmosphere for millennia) they are referred to as short-lived climate pollutants.
