8. Two rabbits are bred together. One is heterozygous for agouti coat
dusya [7]

Answer:

- Parental cross = Cch  x chch  

- F1 = 1/2 Cch (agouti coat); 1/2 chch (albino coat) >> 1:1 phenotypic ratio

Punnett  square:  

          ch         ch

C       Cch       Cch

ch    chch      chch

 

Explanation:

A heterozygous individual is an individual who has two different gene variants (i.e., alleles) at a particular <em>locus</em>. In this case, individuals having the "agouti coat" trait are heterozygous carrying both 'C' and 'ch' alleles. On the other hand, a homo-zygous individual has the same allele at a given <em>locus</em> (here, the 'chch' genotype associated with the albino phenotype). Therefore, as observed in the Punnett Square above, when a heterozygous parent is crossed with a homo-zygous recessive parent for a single gene, alleles segregate in the gametes of both parents so an expected 1:1 phenotypic ratio will be observed.

The relatively long half-life of lipid soluble hormones (steroid hormones) compared to water soluble hormones is due in part to
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

The transport protein-hormone complexes of lipid soluble proteins can not cross the filtration membrane of glomerulus.

Explanation:

Steroid hormones are water-insoluble (hydrophobic) in nature. Since blood has watery medium, the plasma, the lipid-soluble hormones travel in blood through transport proteins. The transport protein-hormone complexes are too large to cross the filtration membrane of glomerulus. The impermeability of the filtration membrane of glomerulus for protein-hormone complexes increases the half-life of lipid-soluble proteins.

Question 3
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The box will move toward you with a force of 10N

Explanation:

If you and your friend are pushing the same box with the same amount of force, those two forces will balance each other out, and the box won't move. In the question, 20N will cancel each other out, and there will be 10N. Your friend is pushing the box with more force than you, so it will move toward you with the remaining force of 10N
