Mendel determined that for a given character(i.e. pea seed shape) an individual has two factors that these can exist in two form

s (R or r). Today we would describe R and r as being:______.
a. different alleles of the seed shape gene.
b. different genes of the seed shape locus.
c. different genotypes of the seed shape character.
d. different loci of the seed shape gene.

Answer:

a. different alleles of the seed shape gene.

Explanation:

Mendel crossed different varieties of pea plants and he observed how phenotypic traits passed to the progeny. From these experiments, Mendel formulated the 'First Law of Segregation', where he observed that traits may exist in pairs that segregate (separate) at meiosis. During meiosis, i.e., gamete formation, these two factors separate from each other, thereby each gamete has the same probability of receiving either factor. Nowadays, we know that these two factors represent two different gene variants or 'alleles' for a given gene <em>locus</em>. Alleles can be classified into dominant or recessive as in the example above described, where the R factor (round) dominates on the r factor (wrinkled) to determine the seed shape.

DNA has two strands. If the sequence of nucleotides of one strand was known, is it possible to use that information to determine
yanalaym [24]

It is possible to use the information of the nucleotide sequence of one strand to determine the sequence of the other strand.

  • Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a biological molecule with two strands. Each strand is made up of a sequence of nucleotides. The DNA nucleotides are Adenine (A), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G) and Thymine (T).

  • In a DNA molecule, Adenine forms an hydrogen bond with Thymine i.e. A-T, while Guanine forms an hydrogen bond with Cytosine i.e. G-C.

  • Therefore, it is possible to use the information of the nucleotide sequence of one strand to determine the sequence of the other strand. For example, a strand with ATGCGTACGAT will form the following sequence: TACGCATGCTA

Red blood cells are a type of specialized cell that move _______ and carbon dioxide throughout the body.
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Red blood cells are a type of specialized cell that move <u>oxygen </u>and carbon dioxide throughout the body.

A structure made of two or more tissues working together to achieve a common function is a/an <u>an</u><u> </u><u>organ</u><u> </u>

<u>cellular </u><u>defferentiation</u><u> </u>describes the degree of specialization that a cell is able to undergo.

A/An <u>embroynic</u><u> </u>stem cell can differentiate into all cell types found within an embryo.

In <u>cytoplasm</u> organisms, all cellular activities take place within a single cell.
