While working in a genetics lab over the summer, you isolated a true-breeding strain of wingless Drosophila. After sharing your

results with your mentor, you learn that six other true-breeding strains of Drosophila with the same mutant phenotype have been isolated independently in your lab. Your mentor asks you to determine if the mutants belong to the same complementation group. What is true about flies that belong to the same complementation group?
a. They all have the same mutation in the same wing- development gene. All flies in a complementation group have identical DNA sequences for this gene.
b. They all have some mutation in the same wing-development gene. Each strain may have a different mutation, but the same gene is mutated in all trains in a complementation group.
c. They all have some mutation in some wing-development gene. Each strain may have a different mutation in a different gene, but all strains within a complementation group have the same phenotype.

Answer:

C: They all have some mutation in some wing-development gene. Each strain may have a different mutation in a different gene, but all strains within a complementation group have the same phenotype.

Explanation:

From the situation of the question given, we can say that the true statement about flies that belong to different complementation groups is option C primarily because Strains existing in different complementation groups obviously would have mutations in different genes.

Identify a signal the brain sends out after the nervous system sends the signal that pH has dropped.
spin [16.1K]

In response to a notification of a <u>decrease</u> in blood pH by the nervous system, the brain sends signals to the external intercostal muscles and the diaphragm.

<h3>What is blood pH?</h3>

Blood pH can be defined as a measure of the molar concentration of hydrogen ions that are present in the blood of a living organism, with respect to its acidity, neutrality or alkanlity (basicity).

In response to a notification of a <u>decrease</u> in blood pH by the nervous system, the brain would send signals (impulses) to the external intercostal muscles and the diaphragm through its respiratory center, so as to help the living organism increase its breathing rate and the volume of its lungs during inhalation.

Distinguish the various types of landforms formed by wind and how these landforms are created
svp [43]

One type of landform formed by wind would be sanddunes. This is the only landform I can think of formed by wind. The wind blows the sand along so that it builds up into a dune perhaps when it hits an obstacle like a small rocky spur and whole deserts can be converted into dunes.
