It involves punnet inherited traits and punnet squares
an example of homozygous dominant would be AA
an example of heterozygous would be Aa
an example of homozygous reccesive would be aa
when an organism is homozygous dominant for a certain trait it means that they can only pass down the dominant trait to their offspring and their offspring will display the dominant trait
Two questions have been asked, and responded to
Answer:
For question 1: The statement is true
For question 2: Yes, the two wild roses are of the same population
Explanation:
Population is simply the total number of organisms of the same species LIVING and BREEDING together in a given area.
I) To be considered part of the same population, two of more organisms MUST BE able to mate i.e produce gametes that are viable enough to fuse together and create new offsprings.
2) Yes! Two wild roses separated by a wide road belong to the SAME POPULATION because
- it is still a given area or habitat
- transfer of pollen grains by agents such as wind or insects is possible, thus breeding still occurs.
Explanation:
A slow, continuous process is defined as gradualism that occurs at slow rate but at a steady pace.
For example, stripes of a tiger develop slowly and at a steady pace so that they can hide in tall grass represents gradualism.
Whereas punctuated equilibrium is a process in which there is sudden and frequent changes that results in the formation of new species.
For example, species living in a sea for thousand of years breed and die over there and suddenly when there is change in sea level than animals must adapt represents punctuated equilibrium.
Answer:
1. The respiratory system allows us to breathe . They bring oxygen into our body and remove carbon dioxide from the body .
2. Tiny hairs called cilia protect the nasal passageways and other parts of the respiratory tract, filtering out dust and other particles that enter the nose through the breathed air.
3. The throat (pharynx and larynx) is a ring-like muscular tube that acts as the passageway for air, food and liquid. It is located behind the nose and mouth and connects the mouth (oral cavity) and nose to the breathing passages (trachea [windpipe] and lungs) and the esophagus (eating tube).
4. The main function of the epiglottis is to seal off the windpipe during eating, so that food is not accidentally inhaled.
5. The heart pumps blood to the lungs for oxygenation and the lungs then give the heart back oxygen rich blood to be transmitted to the whole body

Lactase refers to an enzyme that can dissociate lactose sugar into glucose and galactose. This enzyme plays an important role in the digestion of milk that comprises high lactose sugar. In case, if a mutation occurs in the gene codon of lactase, then two possibilities can take place. These are as follows:
1. Loss of mutation: In this case, the person becomes lactose intolerant because of mutation in lactase gene codon. Due to this, there is low mRNA expression and thus low production of the enzyme lactase. This is also known as lactase non-persistent phenotype.
2. Gain in mutation: In this case, the person gain an increase in mRNA expression of the lactase gene, thus more production of lactase takes place than usual. This kind of individual exhibits lactase persistent phenotype.
