Endotherms need to consume more food to keep their metabolism up and maintain consistent temperatures (homeotherapy). This is because they are a warm-blooded organism which is dependent on the internal generation of heat.
Explanation:
Xenopus laevis is allotetraploid: it has 2 sets of homologous chromosomes originally from one species and 2 sets of homologous chromosomes originally from another species, making a total of 4 sets of chromosomes. During meiosis, every chromosome has another homologous one with which it can pair, producing viable gametes that have the complete genetic information of the species.
Mules, however, are allodiploid: they have one set of chromosomes from a donkey and another set from a horse, making a total of 2 sets of chromosmes. But those two sets are not homologous, so during meiosis the chromosomes can't pair and the gametes will have errors that make them inviable, making mules sterile
Answer:
The correct answer is option d.
Explanation:
An illustration of epigenetic change is a microbe, which can stimulate modifications in the host DNA, causing suppression of defenses or weakening of individual cells. Epigenetic changes modify the physical composition of DNA.
One of the examples of epigenetic change is DNA methylation. DNA methylation refers to the supplementation of methyl group, which inhibits some of the genes from getting expressed. One of the conditions of DNA methylation is cancer.
In the majority of cancer, the tumor cells go through global hypomethylation. The tumor suppressed genes seem to turn highly methylated in the conditions of cancer.
Answer:
Codominance
Explanation:
So this would either be codominance or incomplete dominance. With incomplete dominance, you tend to get a whole other colour- for example crossing black and white chickens and getting a blue chicken. If you cross brown and white, and get a mix, it must be codominance because both traits are shown.
