A dairy farmer artificially selects and breeds cows that have extremely large udders, produce high quantities of a hormone calle

Answer:

Artificial selection is defined as the process of producing crops and animals with desirable traits through gene manipulation.

The traits of the artificially selected cow will not be able to survive in the wild for long because they produce low amounts of testosterone hormone. Testosterone is responsible for sexual development and stimulates sperm production.

Thus, the population of domesticated animals will decrease in comparison to the wild.

If a chromosome in one of your bone cells becomes mutated, you will not pass this mutation onto your children because
Sladkaya [172]
A person will not pass this mutation onto children because somatic cells cannot go through meiosis if a chromosome in one of the bone cells turn out to be mutated. A somatic cell is any cell that creates up an organism excluding reproductive cell. Which is for example the cells that create up the skin are all somatic cells and definite cells in a living organism support in reproduction, dividing or fusing through the reproductive procedure.

What is a reducing sugar?
icang [17]
Reducing sugar is any sugar (all monosaccharides, some disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides) that is capable of acting as a reducing agent because it contains free aldehyde group or free ketone group.

Aldehyde group or alkanal is an organic compound containing formyl group. The formyl group is a functional group consisting of a carbonyl center bonded to hydrogen and an R group. This group can be readily reduced to primary alcohol with the help of catalyctic hydrogenation either applied directly or by transfer hydrogenation.

Ketone group unlike aldehyde group does not have a hydrogen atome bonded to the carbonyl group but it can still be hydrogenated.

Elina [12.6K]

When chiasmata can first be seen in cells using a microscope, the following processes has most likely occurred in prophase I.

<h3>When chiasmata can first be seen in cells using a microscope?</h3>

Recombination can occur at any two chromatids within this tetrad structure.

Crossovers between homologous chromatids can be visualized in structures known as chiasmata, which appear late in prophase I.

Thus, option "C" is correct, Prophase I.
