Answer:
Homologous characters
Explanation:
Homologous character is usually defined as those set of characters that are observed in various organisms and are similar to one another. It is because these organisms have obtained these characters from a common ancestor, having that same distinct characters.
The evolution that occurs in this type of organisms are commonly known as the homologous evolution, where the similarities between the organisms are found in terms of physiology, structure and/or other development, depending upon their common ancestors.
Answer:
<u>proteins.</u>
Explanation:
The DNA code contains instructions needed to make the proteins and molecules essential for our growth, development and health.
Answer:
1. your chromosomes
2. double helix
3. chromosomes are made up of DNA
4. genes
5. carrying genetic information
(just took the test and got 100)
Explanation:
<span>Red blood cells do not contain a nucleus because their purpose is to carry oxygen around the body. Due to the fact these cells do not have a nucleus, their capacity to carry this oxygen is increased greatly.</span>
Answer:
25%
Explanation:
<u>Genotypes and phenotypes:</u>
- SS = straight hair
- CC= curly hair
- SC = wavy hair
- AA or A0= type A blood
- BB or B0= type B blood
- AB = type AB blood
- 00 = type 0 blood
A man with straight hair and A blood has the genotype SS AA or SS A0.
A woman with wavy hair and B blood has the genotype SC BB or SC B0.
Their first child has straight hair and O blood: SS 00
Because the child has type 0 blood, both parents must have a 0 allele, so their genotypes are SS A0 and SC B0.
<u>If their second child is a boy with straight hair, what is the probability that he has A blood?</u>
The hair and blood type genes are independent, so the hair phenotype of the child is irrelevant to determine the probability of him having A blood.
The parental cross for blood type is A0 x B0.
If you do a Punnett Square, you'll get the following offspring:
25% AB, 25% B0, 25% A0 and 25% 00.
The answer is the child has a probability of 25% of having A blood.
