Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The phenomenon is best explained by the fact that the <u>genetic codes are degenerates</u>. In other words, more than one codon can specify for the same amino acid being carried by the tRNA.

<em>The base-pairing rule between the third nucleotide of a codon and that of the anticodon on the tRNAs loosens off. For example, GUU, GUC, and GUA all specify for the amino acid valine while GCU, GCC, and GCA all specify for alanine. </em>

In the rat, the allele for red eye colour is dominant over the alleles for brown colour. Consider a cross between a rat that is
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

1) RR x rr

2) Shown below

3) 100% Rr with red eyes

4) Punnett square shown (Rr x Rr)

5) 25% of the offspring are h0m0zygous dominant with red eyes (RR), 50% are heterozygous with red eyes (Rr), and 25% are h0m0zygous with brown eyes (rr)

Explanation:

Let's say the allele for red eyes is R and the allele for brown eyes is r.

1. A cross between a h0m0zygous dominant (two copies of the dominant allele, R) and h0m0zygous recessive (two copies of the recessive allele, r) is: RR x rr

2.                            R                  R

                  r          <em>Rr                Rr</em>

                 

                  r          <em>Rr                Rr</em>

<em />

The F1 generation is shown in the Punnett square above.

3. The F1 generation are 100% Rr. They are heterozygous. Since red (R)                     is dominant, the rats all have red eyes

4. A cross between the F1 generation (Rr x Rr) gives the F2 generation

                              R                  r

                  R         <em>RR              Rr</em>

                 

                  r          <em>Rr                rr</em>

<em />

5. 25% of the offspring are h0m0zygous dominant with red eyes (RR), 50% are heterozygous with red eyes (Rr), and 25% are h0m0zygous with brown eyes (rr)

The temperature of a ___ animal changes with the temperature of the surroundings​
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Hi!

The answer is cold blooded animals, like lizards, because they can't control their own body temperature like warm blooded animals, such as a dog or cat, can.

Hope this helps!

___________________, produced by stem cells found in bone marrow , manufacture antibodies used to counter the effects of antigen
Delicious77 [7]

White Blood Cells (WBC), produced by the stem cells found in the bone marrow, manufacture antibodies used to counter the effects of the antigens.

The White Blood Cells are known to provide immunity to the body against foreign bodies like bacteria, virus, proteins, etc. The lymphocyte cells, namely, the B-cells and T-cells are the two key cells that make antibodies for various antigens and kill or lyse the foreign body by recognising the antibiotic marker attach to them.
