Answer/Explanation:
<h3>Incomplete dominance</h3>
In incomplete dominance, one allele is not entirely dominant over the other, so heterozygotes (organisms with two different alleles for the gene) show an intermediate or blended phenotype.
For example, consider flower colour.
- If the allele for red flowers (R) was dominant over the allele for white flowers (r), then there are three possible genotypes (RR, Rr, and rr) and two possible phenotypes. (Red (RR and Rr) and white (rr)).
- However, if the allele for red flowers (R) was incompletely dominant over the allele for white flowers (r), then there are three possible genotypes (RR, Rr, rr), and three possible phenotypes (red (RR), white (rr), and pink (Rr))
<h3>Co-dominance</h3>
In incomplete dominance, two alleles are both expressed, one is not dominant over the other. Therefore, heterozygotes (organisms with two different alleles for the gene) express both traits.
For example, consider flower patterns.
- If the allele for spots (F) was dominant over the allele for stripes (f), then there are three possible genotypes (FF, Ff, and ff) and two possible phenotypes. (Spots (Ff and ff) and stripes (ff)).
- However, if the allele for spots (F) was co-dominant to the allele for stripes (f), then there are three possible genotypes (FF, Ff, ff), and three possible phenotypes (spots (FF), stripes (ff), and spots and stripes (Ff))

Answer: Question 1 answer: Skin cells continually replicate
Explanation: The cells in the superficial or upper layers of skin, known as the epidermis, are constantly replacing themselves. This process of renewal is basically exfoliation (shedding) of the epidermis. But the deeper layers of skin, called the dermis, do not go through this cellular turnover and so do not replace themselves.
Question 2 answer: Heart cells undergo terminal differentiation
Explanation: Different cell types (e.g., neurons, skeletal and heart myocytes, adipocytes, keratinocytes) undergo terminal differentiation, in which acquisition of specialized functions entails definitive withdrawal from the cell cycle.
Question 3 answer: DNA replicates in the nucleus
Explanation: DNA replication occurs in the cytoplasm of prokaryotes and in the nucleus of eukaryotes. Regardless of where DNA replication occurs, the basic process is the same. The structure of DNA lends itself easily to DNA replication.
Question 4 answer: The ability to reverse terminal differentiation might affect gene expression in a complex organism
Question 5 answer Cytoplasm replicates during mitosis
Explanation: This process involves replication of the cell's chromosomes, segregation of the copied DNA, and splitting of the parent cell's cytoplasm. ... The outcome of binary fission is two new cells that are identical to the original cell.
Answer;
-Disruptive selection
Disruptive selection results in the creation of two distinct phenotypes.
Explanation;
-Disruptive selection is a type of natural selection that selects against the average individual in a population. The make up of this type of population would show phenotypes of both extremes but have very few individuals in the middle.
-The variance of the trait increases and the population is divided into two distinct groups. The disruptive selection will cause organisms with intermediate traits to reproduce less, and will allow those organisms with extreme traits to reproduce more.
