- Are living things only the product of their DNA? Why or why'not?

Biology
1 answer:
Darina [25.2K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

No, since DNA does code for certain traits, others are introduced or changed by the environment. For example, some adaptations are not coded in DNA, such as dying hair. According to the gene, hair is to be black, for example, but it can be changed to look pink. Another example is when a person is first born. When they are, some bacteria enter the system of the baby --- mostly good. Then the baby's gut will be different, and the bacteria in the gut are not coded by the DNA. So, living things are not only the product of DNA, as there are extraneous factors that affect living things as well.

Explanation:

Phew, that was long! Hope this helps (:

Would the carrying capacity of an area for a species be effected by the other species that live in the same area?
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

I would say yes, all the populations in a community affect each other.

Explanation:

In biology, the concept of carrying capacity pertains to the number of organisms that can survive in a certain environment based upon their resources. So, if the species relies on the other species that live within the same environment, it would obviously affect that species.

Fruit color in a particular plant is controlled by a set of three quantitative traits that work in an equal and additive manner.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

7

Explanation:

The number of distinct shades of fruit color would be 7. It is given that the color is dominated by a group of three QTL(quantitative traits) with each trait having two alleles(A,a). Out of these two alleles, one represented by a capital letter(A) generates a single dose of yellow pigment while the latter represented by a smaller case letter(a) does not generate any pigment. Since <u>there is no environmental effect, the number of various yellow shades would be 7 through the combinations of yellow and colorless pigments(A/a, A/a, A/a, A)</u>.
