Answer:

32 different gametes can be produced

Explanation:

The possibilities of formation of the number of different gametes in a population are determined by the number of heterozygous alleles for a given gene in the organism.

The formula to calculate the number of gametes is- 2ⁿ where n represents the number of heterozygous alleles

In the given question, the five genes of the organism are considered which form five type of heterozygous allele like A, a, B,b and so on. Therefore five types of heterozygous alleles is possible.

So using the formula we have 2⁵= 32 gametes.

Thus, 32 gametes is correct.

Whereas superficial flexors in the anterior compartment of the forearm originate from the _____ epicondyle of the humerus, the s
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Whereas superficial flexors in the anterior compartment of the forearm originate from the medial epicondyle of the humerus, the superficial extensors in the posterior compartment of the forearm originate from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus.

Explanation:

The forearm has 2 compartments: an anterior compartment responsible for the flexion of the wrist, and a posterior compartment with the function to extend the wrist.

The superficial muscles in the anterior compartment arise from the common flexor tendon that originates from the medial epicondyle of the humerus. This compartment is mostly innervated by the median nerve.

The superficial muscles in the posterior compartment originate from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus and are innervated by the radial nerve.

The ulnar nerve innervates the flexor carpi ulnaris and flexor digitorum profundus in the forearm.

Which of the following vectors holds the largest pieces of DNA?
wolverine [178]

Answer:

c. YACs

Explanation:

YACs, the Yeast artificial chromosomes are the high capacity vectors designed to carry the eukaryotic genes and carry the insert of 200-2000 kb.

YACs carry origin of replication from yeast, selectable markers and sequences derived from telomeres and centromere to maintain the stability of the insert during cell division.

The insert size for plasmids, bacteriophage, PACs, and cosmids is about 0.1-10 kb, 5-25 kb, 100-300 kb, 35-45 kb respectively.
