Answer: Eating a diet high in saturated fats, trans fats, and cholesterol has been linked to heart disease and related conditions, such as atherosclerosis. Also too much salt (sodium) in the diet can raise blood pressure. Not getting enough physical activity can lead to heart disease.
Explanation: Diet is an important risk factor in coronary heart disease. Heavy drinking may well increase heart attack, heart failure, stroke, and high blood pressure. A limit for men is 2 drinks a day, for women 1 drink a day.
To solve this problem on genetic dominance, we will need a punnet square.
Let's let P represent purple-flowered and p represent white-flowered.
We have one purple flowered plant with the alleles PP, and we have one white flowered plant with the alleles pp. Using a punnet square, we can determine the alleles of the offspring.
<u>P</u> <u>P</u>
p| Pp Pp
p | Pp Pp
As we can tell from our punnet square, all of our offspring will have purple flowers. This is because the purple-flower allele is dominant and the white-flowered allele is recessive.
Since each flower has a dominant and recessive allele, they are heterozygous.
Therefore, the solution to this problem is D.
DNA is considered the molecule of life because it contains the instructions that ensure the continuity of life. Employment of DNA to code for protein is the basis of all life on earth.
In all living things, inherited DNA is used to code for amino acids which when joined or linked together in a deliberate specific manner form polypeptides which make up proteins. These proteins are responsible for structure and function of cells.
For example DNA provides information to make four polypeptide (two beta and two alpha ) chains which make up hemoglobin, the protein that functions as the oxygen carrier in red blood cells. In summary,
DNA → protein → trait, and that relationship is the physical basis of life.
The answer is C because dominant is the capital letters and homozygous means the same
I am pretty sure that a point mutation that creates a premature stop codon is called a synonymous mutation. It also can be called silent mutation, if you have it in you option list, feel free to use it, it is the same. That will definitely help you.
