Answer:

True

Explanation:

There are certain limitations associated with the Punnett Squares. They are not useful in case of complex genetic inheritance such as linkage between two genes. In case of linkages it becomes difficult to estimate the distribution of genotypes and phenotypes. For example in case of  Nail-patella Syndrome and gene associated with blood group two genes lie on the same chromosome in close vicinity and hence there are high chances of inheritance of these traits in the offspring from the parent thereby causing  random distribution of the two traits. This random distribution cannot be captured through punnet square.  

The same problem is associated in case where a single gene is determined by multiple genes with graded effects of each gene.

The absorption of glucose into the cell leads to the movement of water into the cell. Explain how
lesya692 [45]
When glucose is taken into the cell, the fluids or solutions in the cell become more concentrated  (due to the absorbed glucose) than the fluids outside the cell. When this happens, a natural process called osmosis takes place .

Osmosis is defined as the movement of molecules of a solvent (in this case water) through a semi-permeable membrane (in this case the cell membrane) from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated one in a bid to to equalize the concentration on both sides of the membrane.

Water will therefore leave the less concentrated solution outside the cell, pass through the cell membrane and into the more concentrated solution.

Explain why a gene pool cannot be made up of only one individual
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

All the possible alleles for a gene with multiple alleles cannot be expressed by single individual

Explanation:

Gene pool refers to the sum total of all the alleles of all the genes which are present in a population. Human beings are diploid organisms. One individual can have only two possible alleles for a gene. A gene can have two or more than two alleles. Since all the possible alleles for a gene with multiple alleles cannot be expressed by single individual, a gene pool cannot be made of one individual.

The rigid layer that is present in the cell walls of bacteria that is primarily responsible for the strength of the wall is know
melomori [17]
The substance that helps keep the integrity of the bacterial cell wall intact is known as the peptidoglycan. Others also refer to is it as murein or mucopeptide. The bacterial cell wall is necessary for survival because of the high internal pressure present inside of bacteria. Under normal conditions, if the cell wall is removed the bacterial cell will burst.

The peptidoglycan is a layer that can be used to distinguish gram positive bacteria from gram negative ones. G(+) bacteria have a thick layer of this while G(-) have a thinner ones.
