Do some cows some (acquire/inherit) traits that make them have more muscles compared to other cows.

Answer:

Explanation:

Molecular biology has enabled the identification of the mechanisms whereby inactive myostatin increases skeletal muscle growth in double-muscled (DM) animals. Myostatin is a secreted growth differentiation factor belonging to the transforming growth factor-β superfamily. Mutations make the myostatin gene inactive, resulting in muscle hypertrophy. The relationship between the different characteristics of DM cattle are defined with possible consequences for livestock husbandry. The extremely high carcass yield of DM animals coincides with a reduction in the size of most vital organs. As a consequence, DM animals may be more susceptible to respiratory disease, urolithiasis, lameness, nutritional stress, heat stress and dystocia, resulting in a lower robustness. Their feed intake capacity is reduced, necessitating a diet with a greater nutrient density. The modified myofiber type is responsible for a lower capillary density, and it induces a more glycolytic metabolism. There are associated changes for the living animal and post-mortem metabolism alterations, requiring appropriate slaughter conditions to maintain a high meat quality. Intramuscular fat content is low, and it is characterized by more unsaturated fatty acids, providing healthier meat for the consumer. It may not always be easy to find a balance between the different disciplines underlying the livestock husbandry of DM animals to realize a good performance and health and meat quality.

In pea plants , yellow pod color is recessive and green pod color is dominant . A heterozygous dominant for that trait . What pe
almond37 [142]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

In pea plants, yellow pod color is recessive and green pod color is dominant. A heterozygous plant produced offspring with a plant that is homozygous dominant for the trait. What is a percent chance that the pea plant will have green pods.

Answer:

100%

Explanation:

Let's assume that the allele "G" gives green pod color while the allele "g" imparts yellow color to the pods. The genotype of the heterozygous plant would be "Gg". A cross between heterozygous green plant (Gg) with homozygous dominant (GG) plant would produce progeny in following ratio=

Gg x GG= 1/2 GG (green): 1/2 Gg (green)

Therefore, there are 100% chances that the progeny plant will have green pods.

Describe three factors that contribute to how much damage is done to living tissue by radiation
yaroslaw [1]
I think that these factors are :the type of radiation , the duration of exposure to the radiation and the amount of radiation exposure. Radiation is commonly used to treat many medical conditions. Frequently used as a therapy for various forms of cancer, it is common for radiation to cause death of cells both cancerous and healthy cells in the areas irradiated. The extent of damage caused depends on the type of radiation irradiated, the duration of exposure and the amount of radiation.

When one gene is able to modify the effect of a second gene, the phenomenon is known as:
Ksju [112]

The phenomenon where one gene can modify the effect on the second gene is known as epistasis.

In genetics, epistasis is a phenomenon in which the effect of a gene mutation is determined by the presence or absence of mutations in one or more other genes, which are referred to as modifier genes. To put it another way, the genetic background in which the mutation appears determines its effect. It has long been acknowledged that epistasis, or interactions between genes, is fundamental to comprehending both the structure and function of genetic pathways and the evolutionary dynamics of complex genetic systems.

State four factors that influence the heart rate.​
kvasek [131]

Answer:

Emotions and anxiety can raise your heart rate! Unlike an automobile that is purely mechanical, we are not solely governed by working parts. Some days you can “feel” your way to a higher HR.

Body Temperature: If you become too hot or too cold your body senses a thermal stress load. Blood is sent to your skin to enhance heat dissipation to cool you or increases blood flow to warm you. Apparent temperatures (which account for humidity or wind chill) above 70 degress (F) and below 35 degrees (F) will increase your heart rate at least 2-4 beats per minute. Over 90% humidity can equal as much as a 10 beat increase in heart rate.

The terrain. Walk or run uphill and your HR increases. Walk or run downhill and your HR decreases.

Wind. Walking or running with the wind at your back is easy, therefore HR decreases. Walking or running into the wind is more difficult: HR increases.

Dehydration. As you become increasingly dehydrated during a long walk, hike, or run, your blood becomes thicker and waste products build up in bloodstream. Your heart will work harder to maintain constant cardiac output. A fluid loss of 3% of body weight increases pulse rate because of decrease in circulating blood volume.

Diminishing glycogen stores — your muscles primary fuel source. As the fuel depletes, in order to maintain the same walking or running pace, your HR rises.

Insufficient nutrition. HR increases.

Insufficient sleep. HR increases.

Insufficient recovery after a long hike, run, or other hard workout. HR increases.

Recent illness — or — a signal of impending illness. You guessed it!

Medication – depending upon the medication, heart rate can either decrease or increase. Be certain to ask your physician about any medication you are taking and its effects on your exercise heart rate.
