Biology
1 answer:
kolezko [41]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

phages are non-living biological entities that can produce numerous copies of themselves, forming ordered three-dimensional structures on a nanometre scale

Explanation:

A phage (i.e., a bacteriophage), is a virus capable of infecting and replicating within bacteria. Bacteriophages are composed of proteins forming a capsid that encapsulates the genetic material (either DNA or RNA genome), which may contain a variable number of genes. Bacteriophages, and viruses in general, can be considered nanomachines capable of producing numerous copies of themselves with high fidelity by utilizing the molecular machinery of the host bacterial cell. In biotechnology, it has been proposed to exploit the knowledge about bacteriophage reproduction to design diverse nanostructures.

A= pigment
emmainna [20.7K]

Here you have two characteristics to cross on Punnet square: Blood type and pigment.

They told you both parents are AB this means co-dominance of A and B, you draw the Punnett square (photo), and you'll see your offspring possibilities are 50% AB type, 25% A type, and 25% B type.

Now they told you both parents are homozygous for pigments this means Aa. When you draw the Punnett square (photo), you'll see your offspring possibilities are 50% Aa, 25% AA, and 25% aa.

75% pigmented and 25% albino.
