Please explain to me about the patterns of inheritance in science. Thank you so much ;)))

Reil [10]

Gregor Mendel started experiments on inheritance in the 19. century. The basis of inheritance patterns is the fact that diploid cells contain two copies of the genome and that a gene has different variants, called alleles.Alleles can be dominant (for example, marked A) and recessive (for example, marked a). In a gene locus (position of a gene) there are only two alleles, one from the mother and the other from the father.If individuals have two copies of the same allele they are homozygous (AA (dominant homozygous) or aa (recessive homozygous)). If individuals have two different alleles they are heterozygous (Aa).In autosomal dominant traits, the phenotype is present if both copies of the dominant allele (A) are present (homozygous individuals AA) or only one copy of the dominant allele is present (heterozygous individuals Aa).In autosomal recessive traits, the phenotype is present if both copies of the recessive allele (a) are present (homozygous individuals aa).This is complicated in sex-linked trait, because there are two X cromosomes in females and one X chromosome and one Y chromosomes in males, so terms dominant and recessive are not reliable.It should also be taken into consideration that many traits are complex and caused by many genes interaction and/or environment conditions.

Descirbe the structure of bone

vodomira [7]

The basic structure of bones is bone matrix, which makes up the underlying rigid framework of bones, composed of both compact bone and spongy bone. The bone matrix consists of tough protein fibers, mainly collagen, that become hard and rigid due to mineralization with calcium crystals.

Classify each example or description into the correct evolutionary mechanism.

svetlana [45]

Among evolutionary mechanisms, there can be mentioned non-random matings (1 and 8) , mutations (3 and 6), genetic drift (2, 4 and 5), and genetic flow (7).

<h3>What are evolutionary mechanisms?</h3>

These are different mechanisms that change allelic frequencies and genotypic frequencies conserning the expected ones if populations were under Hardy-Weinber equilibrium.

When these mechanisms are going on, populations evolve.

Among them, we can mention,
