Explain using the term semi-conservation replication why we still

Biology
1 answer:
Basile [38]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Semi-conservation replication describes the mechanism of DNA replication in all known cells. This process is known as semi-conservation because two copies of the original DNA molecule are produced. Each copy contains one original strand and one newly-synthesized strand.

DNA is passed down to the next generation in big chunks called: Chromosomes.

Every generation, each parent passes half their chromosomes to their child. If nothing happened to the chromosomes between generations, then there would be around a 1 in 8 change that you would get no DNA from a great, great, great, great grandparent.

What most people forget, through, is that our chromosomes get mixed and matched before they are passed on. It is because of this "recombination" that your great, great, great grandparent's DNA is almost cetainly still lurking in yours.

What is the answer to this problem?
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

Codominant and multiple alleles

Explanation:

Human blood types are an example of codominance, because both A and B alleles are expressed equally.

It cannot be complete dominance because neither the A or B allele are expressed over the other. I.e., neither are recessive.

It is not polygenic, as A B and O are multiple alleles of the same gene. Polygenic is when several genes control one trait. Therefore, it also represents a case of multiple alleles.

Sex linked traits are those present on the X chromosome, and we are told here that the gene is found on chromosome 9. Therefore it cannot be sex linked.

Incomplete dominance and codominance are similar but have different outcomes. instead of both alleles being expressed as in codominance, the resulting heterozygous phenotype is a 'blended' phenotype that is distinct from either homozygote. E.g. a red flower mated with a white flower producing pink flowers
