They are basically the next step up from atoms. They are smaller living organisms. (might not be helpful but it's a start)
Answer:
Considering the <u>whole progeny</u> (100%), there will be
- 25% Black male kittens, XBY
- 0% Calico Male kittens
- 25% Calico female kittens, XBXR
Explanation:
<u>Available data:</u>
- The gene for Calico (multicolored) cats is an x-linked trait and codominant
- Calico Females receive a "B" and an "R" gene, and have black and orange splotches on white coats. Their genotype is XBXR.
- Males can only be black or orange, but never calico. Their genotype is XBY and XRY

Parentals) XBXR x XBY
Gametes) XB XR XB Y
Punnett square) XB XR
XB XBXB XBXR
Y XBY XRY
F1) Among the whole progeny:
- 2/4 = 50% will be black (female XBXB and male XBY)
- 1/4 = 25% will be Calico (female XBXR)
- 1/4 = 25% will be Orange (male XRY)
Among females:
- 1/2 = 50% of females will be black, XBXB
- 1/2 = 50% of females will be Calico, XBXR
Among males:
- 1/2 = 50% of males will be black, XBY
- 1/2 = 50% of males will be orange, XRY
Phospholipids have two distinct polarities. The phosphate head is always polar, while the two "tails" it has are nonpolar.
Primary growth or lengthening of plants results from mitotic division in cells of the apical meristem tissue. The apical meristem can be found in the top of plants. When the plant divides, it helps to lengthen it. The correct choice is C.
