In a mating between two individuals that are heterozygous for a recessive lethal allele that is expressed in utero, what genotyp

Answer:

1:2:0

Explanation:

If two recessive lethal alleles come together, they will be expressed and lead to the offspring's death. Let the dominant allele be S and the recessive allele be s. Here, the two individuals are heterozygous for it. So when they mate:

    S     s

S  SS  Ss

s   Ss   ss

1/4 have homozygous fominant genotype (SS), 2/4 have heterozygous genotype (Ss) and 1/4 have homozygous recessive (ss) genotype. Since 1/4 offspring have ss genotype, they will die. Hence, the usual 1:2:1 ratio has been modified here to only 1:2:0

What are the sequence of events in the replication of DNA
Oliga [24]

Answer:

There are three main steps to DNA replication: initiation, elongation, and termination. In order to fit within a cell's nucleus, DNA is packed into tightly coiled structures called chromatin, which loosens prior to replication, allowing the cell replication machinery to access the DNA strands.

What do you think would happen to the process of cell division if there is a deficiency in the Golgi apparatus's ability to pack
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The process of cell division will slow down and the cell will die

Explanation:

Without the golgi apparatus or if its not working as well as it should be there would be no lysosomes or less. Without the lysosomes there will be a lot of junk/trash in the cell and it would have no way to break it down and get it out

faust18 [17]

Answer: D) The lizard and the snake are secondary consumers.

Explanation:

Producers are organisms that, simply put, produce their own food. All photosynthesizing plants are considered to be producers. Animals cannot be producers.

Primary consumers eat producers.

Secondary consumers eat primary consumers.

Tertiary consumers eat secondary consumers, and so on.

The lizard eats a fly, which is a primary consumer. This makes the lizard a secondary consumer.

The snake eats a mouse, which is a primary consumer. This makes the snake a secondary consumer.

A) is incorrect because the hawk is a tertiary consumer.

B) is incorrect because grass is a producer, not a consumer

C) is incorrect because the lizard is a secondary consumer
