How is a trait passed down from parents to offspring USE OWN WORDS

Biology
1 answer:
artcher [175]2 years ago
8 0
A trait is a characteristic, such as color or size, that is inherited by an offspring from its parents. The genes that control a trait come in pairs, one gene from each parent. We represent these gene pairs by writing a combination of two letters. For example, if one parent contributes a gene for blue eyes (c), and other parent contributes a gene for brown eyes(C), then we write the offspring’s eye color trait as Cc. This combination, of the two genes that determine the trait, is called a genotype. If gene pair contains a dominant allele, the the offspring will show this dominant trait

Swamp coolers which use evaporational cooling are a good way to cool homes and buildings in South Carolina.
zalisa [80]

4. Evaporative cooling can be defined as the process of removal of the latent heat from a surface by the evaporation the evaporation of a liquid from there, which results in the reduction of the temperatures. This technique is used for cooling the homes in the dry and hot areas, such as South Carolina. The dry and hot surrounding there makes it easier for the water to evaporate when it passes through the evaporative coolers, making the surrounding air cooler.

Hence, the given statement is true.

5. When the outside temperature is as high as 83 degree Celsius, while the relative humidity is 66%, , it is likely that the sweating will take place, and the water will be evaporated from the skin, making a person feel cooler.

Hence, the given statement is true.

explain how a change in the sequence of nucleotide in a strand of DNA might cause a protein to malfunction
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer: Proteins are made using DNA as a template. The DNA is turned into RNA, and the RNA is then turned into DNA. 

A change in these nucleotides could end up making some part of the protein different. A single nucleotide change could be silent (no change in the protein) or could change a single amino acid (amino acids are the building blocks of proteins). If that was an important amino acid, the protein might not function at all! A silent change can occur because the same set of nucleotides sometimes makes the same final amino acid (for example, reading "gcc" "gca" "gcg" or "gct" nucleotides all mean "alanine" amino acid). 

The deletion of a single nucleotide, or the addition of one, can change the entire sequence of amino acids that come after it! Nucleotides are read in sets of three, so this throws off how the DNA is read. If would be like turning "The brown fox jumps over the dog" into "The gbrow nfo xjump sove rth edo g". Completely different! All of the words are thrown off.

I know it is long but I hope it helped
