Biology

ki77a [65]3 years ago

Answer:

Genes of one species can be modified, or genes can be transplanted from one species to another. Genetic engineering is made possible by recombinant DNA technology. Organisms that have altered genomes are known as transgenic. Most transgenic organisms are generated in the laboratory for research purposes.

Explanation:

A genetically modified organism (GMO) is any organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. The exact definition of a genetically modified organism and what constitutes genetic engineering varies, with the most common being an organism altered in a way that "does not occur naturally by mating and/or natural recombination". A wide variety of organisms have been genetically modified (GM), from animals to plants and microorganisms. Genes have been transferred within the same species, across species (creating transgenic organisms) and even across kingdoms. New genes can be introduced, or endogenous genes can be enhanced, altered or knocked out.

Why must you use the same number of beads when you construct the second chromosome in Step 1?
Masteriza [31]
You should use the same amount of beads for both chromosomes because they need to match in size.
I am assuming you are making a pair of homologous chromosomes out of pop beads, and they should have the same size because they code the same information, the only difference between them is that one comes from the mother and ther other from the father. (Homologous chromossomes have the same genes in the same loci).

Suppose that allele D produces tiny ears and allele d produces normal ears. A heterozygous male with the Dd genotype mates with
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is 35 percent.

Explanation:

Allele D produced tiny ears, and allele d produces normal ones. If a heterozygous male with Dd mates with the homozygous female with dd, then generally, the expected offspring produced will be 50 percent with tiny ears, and 50 percent with normal ears.  

However, in the given case, the penetrance is 70 percent. Thus, the probability of the offspring with tiny ears will be:  

Penetrance = 70 %

Probability = 70 % of 50 % of 100

= 70/100 * 50/100 * 100

= 35 %

Hence, the probability of the offspring with tiny ears is 35%.

Naddik [55]
An open fracture is most accurately defined as a fracture in which the overlying skin is no longer intact. A fracture is normally the break in the continuity of the bone. It is also called a compound fracture, in which  the fracture is an open wound or break in the skin near the site of the broken bone. Immediate treatment for an open fracture focuses on preventing infection at the site of the injury.
