A cross between individuals that are heter0zyg0us for two different traits is a dihybrid cross. <em>A cross between two individuals that are heterozygous for eye and skin color would be an example of a _</em>dihybrid<em>_ cross.</em>
----------------------
Dihybrid crosses involve individuals that expresses two different traits and are heter0zyg0us for each of them.
So let us imagine we are studing the characters eye color and skin color. Let us assume that both of them are coded by single diallelic genes.
For eye color there is
- Dominant allele B that codes for brown eyes
- Recessive allele b that codes for blue eyes
For skin color there is
- Dominant allele A that codes for black skin
- Recessive allele a that codes for white skin
So, an individual that is heter0zyg0us for both of them, is BbAa.
If this person crosses to another person with the same genotype, we are talking about a <u>dihybrid cross</u>, because two dibybrid individuals are involved.
Cross: BbAa x BbAa
According to this information, we can aswer the question:
<em>When crossing two individuals that are heterozygous for eye and skin color we are referring to a</em><em> dihybrid cross.</em>

The answer to this question would be: half of
Gametes cell is a haploid cell that only has half of genetic material from the parent cells. The process of making gamete cells is called meiosis.
The gamete is haploid because it was used in fertilization and need to fuse with other gametes(example: sperm with the egg) resulting in a full paired chromosomes.
B- speed up the chemical reaction
Answer:
Sometimes molecules cannot move through the cell membrane on their own. These molecules need special transport proteins to help them move across the membrane. Facilitated diffusion is the diffusion of substances with the help of transport proteins in the plasma membrane. These special proteins are called channel proteins or carrier proteins, and they are attached to the cell membrane. In fact, they go through the cell membrane, from the inside of the cell to the outside. Facilitated diffusion is used for molecules that cannot diffuse rapidly through cell membranes on their own, even when the molecules are moving from high to low concentration areas. An example is the sugar plants and animals use for energy, called glucose. Even though facilitated diffusion involves transport proteins, it is still passive transport because the solute is moving down the concentration gradient so it does not require the use of cellular energy.
Answer: The correct answer is -
d) a dominant trait that depends on the presence of only one of many dominant alleles.
Glaucoma is an autosomal dominant trait, meaning that presence of single copy of the defective gene is enough to cause the disease.
It corresponds to a group of diseases, which cause damage in the optic nerve, leading to loss of vision and if not treated, it ultimately leads to blindness.
Thus, option D) is the right answer.
