8. Two rabbits are bred together. One is heterozygous for agouti coat

Biology
1 answer:
dusya [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

- Parental cross = Cch  x chch  

- F1 = 1/2 Cch (agouti coat); 1/2 chch (albino coat) >> 1:1 phenotypic ratio

Punnett  square:  

          ch         ch

C       Cch       Cch

ch    chch      chch

 

Explanation:

A heterozygous individual is an individual who has two different gene variants (i.e., alleles) at a particular <em>locus</em>. In this case, individuals having the "agouti coat" trait are heterozygous carrying both 'C' and 'ch' alleles. On the other hand, a homo-zygous individual has the same allele at a given <em>locus</em> (here, the 'chch' genotype associated with the albino phenotype). Therefore, as observed in the Punnett Square above, when a heterozygous parent is crossed with a homo-zygous recessive parent for a single gene, alleles segregate in the gametes of both parents so an expected 1:1 phenotypic ratio will be observed.

In humans, the maintenance of a stable internal temperature is a direct result of Homeostasis. Homeostasis is the ability of the body to maintain an equilibrium condition within it's internal environment even when dealing external changes. Homeostasis happens in human when there is an effort exerts by the body to regulate it's internal  temperature around 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. For example, during summer days we produce sweat for our body to cool off, and during winter we shiver for our body to produce heat.

All organisms must perform life-sustaining metabolic processes in order to survive.
Alik [6]

Explanation:

  • Unicellular organisms or single celled organisms that are made up only of one cell. Hence the name.
  • Unicellular organisms are further divided into Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic organisms
  • Examples of prokaryotic organisms are bacteria and Eukaryotic are protozoa and unicellular algae, however many eukaryotes are multi cellular as well.
  • These organisms have to carry out life sustaining metabolic processes for their survival.
  • These processes are metabolism, homeostasis and reproduction. Metabolism is important as it involves conversion of food into energy for cellular processes. Homeostasis for maintaining a constant internal physical and chemical conditions and reproduction is by cell division.
  • Multi cellular organisms as the name says unlike unicellular organisms consists of more than one cells.
  • Examples of multi cellular organisms are animals, land plants etc.,
  • Metabolic process in multi cellular organisms is a broad category of processes happening for these organisms which involves chemical reactions and pathways that happen at organismal state, transporting substances between the cells.

Answer:

1. Arsenic, benzene, formaldehyde, lead, and mercury are just a few of the more than 70 cancer-causing chemicals in cigarette smoke.

2.They work, for instance, to keep the airways clear of mucus and dirt, allowing us to breathe easily and without irritation. They also help propel sperm.

3.Spirometry measures how much air you can breathe in and out. It also measures how fast you can empty the air out of your lungs. Spirometry helps diagnose breathing problems such as asthma and COPD.

4. Tar causes cancer of the lungs, mouth and throat.
