Lethal genes (genes that result in the failure to develop a vital organ or metabolic pathway) are nearly always recessive. Anima
allsm [11]

Answer: C

Explanation:

When breeders notice a unique trait of interest and selectively breed to increase their population, there is tendency of also increasing the population of lethal genes. This happens via a situation known as inbreeding depression. There is a tendency to mate closely related individuals in a bid to increase the occurrence of a desired phenotype. However, in a situation where these animals have a recessive lethal gene, it may result in a double recessive thus becoming obvious in the population.

Why would cells die if they were unable to make (or otherwise obtain) the amino acid arginine?
kumpel [21]

Answer: Arginine is an amino acid that is incorporated into proteins. So if cells can not make or obtain arginine, the cell can not make proteins needed for survival.

Explanation:

Arginine is an amino acid used to build proteins, and it is classified as a semiessential or conditionally essential amino acid.

Proteins are large molecules consisting of long chains of amino acids. They perform many functions such as catalysing metabolic reactions, providing structure to cells and organisms, and transporting molecules, among many others.

Most notably, arginine is part of proteins that play an important role in many different processes such as cell division, immune function, wound healing and the release of hormones. <u>Without this amino acid, the cell cannot manufacture the proteins necessary for proper functioning</u>. So the cell dies because it cannot function properly.
