Imagine a pedigree that traces an inherited disorder found in individuals with two recessive alleles for gene D. The pedigree sh

No, the parents don't have a disorder, but they carry recessive allele.

Individuals with the disorder are recessive homozygous (dd). It is known that recessive allele produces its phenotype only when it is paired with another recessive allele. Thus, to have offspring with disorder (with genotype dd), parents must be heterozygous, or one parent is recessive homozygous, and the other one is heterozygous. 

Now, let's imagine both situations:

Parents:            Dd           x              dd
Offspring:       Dd       Dd         dd           dd

In this cross, there is no possibility to have children with genotype DD.

Parents:            Dd           x              Dd
<span>Offspring:       DD       Dd         Dd           dd
</span>
In this cross all three genotypes DD, Dd, or dd could be inherited.

It can be concluded that three children with <span>the genotypes DD, Dd, and dd, the parents must be heterozygous which do not have the disorder.</span>

By what mechanism would a nonpolar molecule move across a membrane if it is moving up its concentration gradient
SVEN [57.7K]
Non polar molecule move across a membrane through simple diffusion, when moving up their concentration gradient. Simple diffusion involves movement of molecules through a membrane without the help of integral membrane protein. These molecules are driven by the force of diffusion. This is different from facilitated diffusion where molecules only move with the aid of integral protein in the membrane.

Marat540 [252]

The lactose-digesting bacteria like to grow on milk agar .Bacillus cereus growth and survival were examined during the production of cheese of the Gouda variety. Approximately 102 B. cereus spores per milliliter of cheese milk were intentionally added to pasteurized milk before it was used to make the cheese in the pilot plant.

"milk agar," in which 2% nonfat powdered milk is added to the agar base. lactose-digesting bacteria like to grow on milk agar. Surface plating on B. cereus selective medium was used to count B. cereus, while lactic acid bacteria were counted on lactic agar and MRS agar (de Man-Rogosa-Sharpe). Samples of the milk before renneting, the curd at cutting, the half-whey removal, the final whey removal, the hooping of the curd, the cheese after pressing, the cheese after brining, after one week, after two weeks, after four weeks, and after six weeks were all taken for microbiological analysis. The growth of lactic acid bacteria during cheese production was unaffected by B. cereus.
