When a female cow with black hair is crossed with a bull with white hair, the offspring are known as blue roans because of their

dark blue-gray color. A close examination of a blue roan’s coat shows a mixture of white hairs and black hairs. This is caused by:
1) sex linked traits
2) codominance
3) incomplete dominance
4) polygenic trait

Answer:

2) codominance

Explanation:

CODOMINANCE is a non-mendelian pattern of inheritance which occurs when the alleles of a particular gene is neither dominant nor recessive over its contrasting allele, hence, they are both expressed in the resulting hybrid when they combine. The two alleles are said to be CODOMINANT.

This is the case in this question involving a gene coding for hair color in cattle. The allele for black hair is codominant with the allele for white hair, hence, they combine to form an hybrid with both colors expressed (black and white) called blue roan.

According to the attached image, the heterozygous genotype in the offspring exhibits a phenotypic expression of both traits under CODOMINANCE inheritance pattern.

2) A population of animals is permanently split by a natural barrier into two separate populations in different environments. Wh
kaheart [24]

Answer:

C) The two populations will evolve into separate species.

Explanation:

In the given question, the population of animals has been split into two different populations due to a natural barrier present between them.

When we will observe these species after a very long time, the species will not be able to reproduce with each other and will be reproductively isolated.  This reproductive isolation will lead to the formation of new species but belonging to the same genus.

Thus, Option-C is correct.

Molecular phylogenies show all land plants are a monophyletic group. This suggests ________.
guapka [62]

Answer:

D.  There was a single transition from aquatic to terrestrial habitats

Explanation:

Based on the molecular differences at the level of DNA sequence and inheritance, the molecular phylogenies show that all land plants are a monophyletic group. This is why it suggests a single transition from aquatic to terrestrial habitats occur.

What are some effects caused by chromosome 11 disorders?
Aloiza [94]
Mitosis results in two cells that are duplicates of the original cell. This kind of cell division occurs throughout the body, except in the reproductive organs. This is how most of the cells that make up the body are made and replaced.<span>Meiosis results in cells with half the number of chromosomes, 23 instead of the normal 46. These are the eggs and sperm. </span>
