Does a mom or dad ever give more DNA to a baby than the other parent? Why?​

Biology

The mother actually gives more DNA to a baby more than the father because of the little organelles, aka the mitochondria that live inside your cells are only to be received from your mother.

But in DNA, it can vary who's side you can get more of, and in some rare cases, equally. This is because dominant genes carry out around 75% of the time and genes that are recessive can carry out 25% of the time, depending on the genetics of both the mother and the father. Example, brown eyes are a dominant gene over blue eyes, so there is a 75% chance that the baby will have brown eyes and a 25% chance that the baby has blue eyes if one parent has the brown eye gene and one has the blue eye gene.

I hope this helped!! :D

The answer is extracellular matrix

Extracellular matrix is a term used in biology for molecule outside the cell that has a role in structural or biochemical function. The example would be collagen and elastin, strong and elastic protein that could be found in the skin. These protein is released by a certain cell, so its location is not inside the cell and it is not cellular.

Answer:

Explanation:

halocline

wind

dissolved salts

ionic

Coriolis

Convection currents flow due to variations in the temperature and salinity in seawater, which both influence its density. Variations in density in different regions of the ocean will cause water to flow from less dense areas to more dense areas as water heats up and becomes less saline, producing a horizontal convection current. Vertical convection currents can arise as cooler, more saline water sinks, causing warmer, less saline water to rise.
