The trait of “freckles” is dominant and represented by A. No freckles is recessive and represented by a. A researcher crossed tw

o individuals, one homozygous dominant and the other heterozygous for freckles. Based on the data in the Punnett square, the researcher concluded that all offspring would have dominant as well as the recessive alleles. What comment would you make about his conclusion? A) He is correct. Fifty percent of the offspring are heterozygous dominant. B) He is correct. The dominant allele for the trait is preset in all the offspring. C) He is incorrect. The homozygous dominant individual cannot provide a recessive allele. D) He is correct. Both parents contribute at least one dominant allele to their offspring.

Based on the Punnett square I've just created from the two individuals' phenotypes for freckles, all possible offspring phenotypes would have freckles, as all possible genotypes for offspring contain the dominant allele. The possible genotypes are 50 percent homozygous dominant and 50 percent heterzygous. The researcher claims that all possible offspring would have dominant and recessive alleles; he is wrong. While all possible offspring phenotypes do have the dominant allele, only 50 percent has the recessive allele.

Answer:
<span>C) He is incorrect. The homozygous dominant individual cannot provide a recessive allele.</span>

Which characteristic proves Lactobacillus acidophilus is from the specific kingdom Eubacteria? It is multicellular. It has a cel
EleoNora [17]

The correct option is this: IT HAS PEPTIDOGLYCAN.

Eubacteria are those bacteria that are considered to be real bacteria and they can be found virtually everywhere. They are prokaryotes and thus lack true nucleus. They are normally categorized based on their shapes. One specific characteristic of eubacteria is their possession of cell walls that are made of peptidoglycan, this chemical strengthen their cell wall and enhance their ability to withstand hostile environments.

There are two main types of cell division—mitosis and meiosis. Which of the following is a true statement about the end products
Andrei [34K]
Mitosis happens in all types of cells. in this division, the cell will double it's number of chromosomes and then will be divided into two separated cells. so the number of chromosomes in product is equal to the number of chromosomes of the first cell



but meiosis only happens to produce gametes. the cell will be divided into two separated gametes.
in this division the number of chromosomes won't be doubled. so gametes have the half number of a normal person chromosomes.

The mass of an atom is contained primarily in its _____. A. Electron Shell B. Nucleus C. Proton D. Size
igor_vitrenko [27]
The mass of an atom is contained primarily in its NUCLEUS.
An atom is made up of three sub particles, which are proton, neutrons and electrons. The proton and the neutrons are located in the nucleus of the atom while the electron  are located outside the nucleus where they move about in continuous motion around the nucleus. The proton and the neutrons, which are located in the nucleus have the same relative mass of 1, which has been estimated to be about 2,000 times bigger than that of the electron, which has a relative mass of 0.0005. This shows that, the mass of an atom is located primarily in its nucleus. <span />
