11. Punnett squares can also be used to predict genotypes of the parents. A guinea pig with short hair is crossed
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

Ss × ss

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for hair length in guinea pigs. The alleles for short hair (S) is dominant over that of long hair (s).

According to this question, a guinea pig with short hair (S_) is crossed to one that has long hair (ss) to produce offsprings that have 44 short hair and 46 long hair. This number of offsprings produced indicate a ratio of 1:1, which can only be produced if the short haired guinea pig is heterozygous i.e. Ss.

Therefore, the genotype of the parents are Ss (short hair) and ss (long hair) i.e. Ss × ss. This combination will produce offsprings with the following proportion: Ss (1) : ss (1).

Transcription chain elongation is thought to generate ____ supercoils ahead of the transcription bubble and _____ supercoils beh
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

a. positive; negative

Explanation:

Transcription is the process of forming an RNA molecule from a DNA template molecule. In this process, the strands of DNA separate and one serves as a template for RNA, while the other is inactive. At the end of the transcript, the tapes that have been split back together again.

The transcription process is divided into three steps: initiation, stretching and termination

During the stretching phase, transcription chain elongation occurs. In this phase the enzyme called RNA polymerase starts to move through the DNA molecule, unwinding its helix and producing an increasingly lengthened RNA molecule. The already transcribed DNA is rewound almost immediately, recomposing its double helix. This process is called the elongation phase.

During this process, it is believed that positive supercoils  are generated ahead of the transcription bubble and  and the negative supercoils behind it.

Which organism pictures is not an autotroph
professor190 [17]
An autotroph is an organism capable photosynthesis or chemosynthesis through reducing carbon dioxide, fats, sugars and/or proteins in a repetitive cycle of energy production and use to support its life. these include all plants, algae and certain bacterium.

its counterpart is the heterotroph which is reliant on outside sources for their means of energy. aka tertiary consumer: animals, fungi and certain bacterium

Chromosomes are strands of dna wound around some proteins called
madam [21]
The proteins are called Histone proteins. Chromosomal DNA is packaged such that the strands of DNA are wound around histone proteins and fold into complex ways to form chromosomes. The histone proteins are positively charged proteins that strongly adhere to negatively charged DNA and form complexes called nucleosomes. Each nucleosome is composed of double-helical DNA wrapped.
