Describe the structure of bird eggs and explain what usually happens to the eggs after they are laid
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer

They have polygenic inheritance and are also affected by the environment factor.

Explanation

The trait of height and skin tone are controlled by different genes and are also affected by environmental factors. The skin tone and height within the population is not specific, both have wide ranges varies from high expression of the gene to less or even no expression of the gene. Mostly these factors are mostly affected by inheritance and less by environmental factors.

"Which mode of inheritance produces heterozygotes with phenotypes that differ from either homozygote but typically more closely
lyudmila [28]

Which mode of inheritance produces heterozygotes with phenotypes that differ from either homozygote but typically more closely resembles one homozygous phenotype than the other?"

A) complete dominance

B) incomplete dominance

C) codominance

D) epistasis

E) incomplete penetrance

Answer:

B) incomplete dominance

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance occurs when the dominant allele of a gene is not able to mask the expression of the recessive allele completely. This results in the expression of a phenotype in the heterozygous genotypes that differ from both homozygous genotypes. However, the phenotype of the heterozygote is closer to one of the homozygous genotypes.

For example, the petal color in four o'clock plant is controlled by a gene with two alleles R and r. Here, the "R" allele can not produce enough pigment in heterozygous conditions to completely mask the expression of the "r" allele and the phenotype of the "Rr" plant is "pink". On the other hand, the phenotype of "RR" plant is red while that of the "rr" plant is "white".

djyliett [7]

"Identical twins are more similar on the trait than fraternal twins" would lead to the conclusion that genetic factors are important in the development of this trait.

<u>Option: C</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Research performed on identical or fraternal twins are twin investigations. We seek to expose the significance for characteristics, phenotypes and diseases of environmental and genetic factors. Twin work is considered a key instrument in the domains of behavioral genetics and material, from biology to psychology.

Fraternal or dizygous twins each share around 50 % of their DNA, just like any other parent. Since the twins are born into the same family they share other factors of their surroundings. The existence of a given genetic or phenotypic trait in just one component of a pair of twins called discordance offers a valuable insight into influence on such a trait on climate.
