Answer:

Please see the answer below

Explanation:

a. The roman numerals represent the various generations in the pedigree.

    I represents first generation

   II represents the second generation

b. The half shaded square and circle representing the parents means that both of them are carriers for the trait in question. <u>Tay-Sachs disease is an autosomal recessive inheritance, assuming the trait is represented by the allele </u><u>a</u><u>, the gentoypes of the parents would be </u><u>Aa </u><u>and </u><u>Aa </u><u>respectively.</u>

c. Still on the assumption that the disease is represented by the allele a. If offpsring II4 which happens to be free of the Tay-Sachs allele marries a person that also does not carry the Tay-Sachs disease gene, the cross will be as shown below.

AA   x   AA = AA, AA, AA, and AA.

<em>All the children would be free from the Tay-Sach's allele. That is, they will be homozygous normal.</em>

Nuris is writing a paper on the scientist who first named cells after studying cork under a microscope. Who is her paper about?
Setler79 [48]
Robert Hooke was the first scientist to discover cell. This discovery was made possible by the use of microscope which he invented. With this microscope, Robert examined a cork and noticed pores which filled the entire volume of the thin slices of cork; he called the pores cells. This discovery was made in January 1653.

How does the shape of the earth and its tilted axis influence where terrestrial communities are found?
zzz [600]

<u>Answer:</u>

The Earth has got its tilted axis and this is the reason for different seasons to be formed. Communities are a set of population found in that particular area and are of two types.  

A) Terrestrial (Land)

B) Aquatic (Water).

These communities to flourish need a perfect environment with a perfect season.  Hence according to the season formed due to the tilted axis influences the  terrestrial community which forms in that particular region and have the ability for the region specific community growth.

The terrestrial community of a tundra or desert or rain forest all depends on the particular season that can be formed due to the position of the earth facing the sun.

explain how complete dominance, co dominance, incomplete dominance, and sex linked traits are inherited and expressed differentl
dlinn [17]
<span> COMPLETE DOMINANCE:
</span>
<span>Mendel concluded that some alleles are dominant and others are recessive. When one dominant allele is present, it's enough to make the recessive allele unexpressed (this is what happens in heterozygous individuals). In other words, it 'hides' or masks the recessive allele.

CO-DOMINANCE:

-a condition in which both alleles are dominant.
</span>
There are alleles that have the capacity of dominating at the same time, and when an organism is heterozygotic, both alleles are expressed.
For example, a white chicken(WW) crossed with a black chicken (BB):  100% of the offspring being WB. With this genotype, they have black feathers and white feathers.
It's not a blend of colors, but a case where both are expressing.

INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE:
-a condition with none of the alleles is dominant or recessive, so the traits blend in the phenotype.

Some alleles are not completely dominant, and when that's the case the phenotype of a heterozygous organism will be a mix between the phenotypes of its homozygous parents.

For example:
plant 1: RR -red
plant 2: rr- white

By crossing this plants we will obtain 100%  of the offspring with a color mix: pink.(genotype: Rr)
Red and white are not completely dominating so it results in a blend of colors.

SEX LINKED TRAITS

Sex chromosomes contain genes that determine the sex of a person. Two X chromosomes result in a female and one X plus a Y result in a male.

In those chromosomes, there are genes specific for each gender, and in those chromosomes, there are genes that code for certain traits- the sex-linked traits.
These traits will be inherited according to the sex chromosomes they receive from their parents.
