Answer:

Explanation: turgid refers to cells or tissues that are swollen from water uptake. Many cell types in many different organisms can become turgid due to water uptake. Some cells will lyse, or split open if they become too turgid.

for a particular flower the allele for red is domonaniant the allele for white is ressivepunnent square

Papessa [141]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-The red and white flower alleles are co dominant.

Explanation:

The Mendel suggested that for any trait, the organism contains its alleles which could be dominant and recessive. But there are cases in which multiple alleles exist for the same trait which are neither dominant nor recessive.

Two cases arise due to this in which both the dominant alleles co-exist and show their phenotype effect called "co-dominance" and when both alleles form a new phenotype called 'incomplete dominance".

In the given case, the self-pollination produces red, white and patched flowers as a result of co-dominance because both the alleles show the equal effect on the flower petals (mixed phenotype) and form a flower with red patches or spots on the flower.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.

2. The mother is blood type O and the father is blood type A.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Well this really depends on if the father is homozygous or heterozygous for type A.
But lets say he is homozygous for right now. That mean if he were to produce offspring with a type O women then all of there offspring would be heterozygous for type A.
If the father was heterozygous for type A and he produced with the same type O mother then the offspring would be either type O or heterozygous type A. In this case there is a 50% chance either way.
Hope this makes sense(;

Assign each characteristic to the appropriate type of muscle fiber.

olga2289 [7]

I found the full exercise on the internet. Attached is an image of the characteristics and the types of muscle fibres.

Fast twitch:
- few mitochondria (most of the energy comes from acid lactic fermentation)
- low myoglobin content (O2 is not used as the main source of energy)
- shorter twitches
- anaerobic (uses mainly glucose and no O2)
- easily fatigued (as soon as glucose storage finishes fatigue comes in)
- high glycogen content (glucose as the main source of energy and therefore more glucose storage in the form of glycogen)

Slow twitch:
- high myoglobin content (energy comes from O2 and therefore is needed much myoglobin)
- aerobic (uses O2)
- low glycogen content (as O2 is the main source of energy, glucose is not needed as much)
-longer twitches
