The answer to this question would be silent mutation.


Silent mutation is a mutation in the DNA that was not significant so that the phenotype of the organism is not changed. The mutation might change one of the amino acids sequences in the DNA but have the new protein made from the mutation have a similar function like the normal DNA. Silent mutation will not have any effect to the organism but might be dangerous if accumulated.

People with celiac disease _____.
quester [9]
<span>People with celiac disease cannot tolerate gluten.  Gluten is a type of protein found as nutrient in food and is released to the digestive system. When the body receives food that contains gluten (e.g. wheat, rye, and barley) the immune systems responds and attacks the small intestines. In the event of this, the linings of the small intestine called villi are damaged. When the villi get damaged, the body cannot properly absorb nutrients.

Answer:

B. The first generation will not have short plants. The short trait will return in the second generation.

Explanation:

If <em><u>T</u></em> is for Tall and <em><u>t</u></em> is for short, then the first generation doesn't have any short offspring. We can rule out answer choices A and D.

The second generation results in TT, Tt, Tt, tt.

TT is a tall Offspring.

Tt is a Tall Offspring, with a small t as a recessive trait.

tt is a short offspring because both the recessive traits (<u><em>t</em></u>) are together.

We can rule out option C.

That leaves us with the correct answer being B. The first generation will not have short offspring, but will pass it on to the second generation, which will have a short offspring (25% chance of having short offspring).
