Answer:

Sample Answer:

Incomplete dominance is seen in offspring that have a third phenotype not seen in the parents. Snapdragons are an example. The third phenotype results when a snapdragon with the red pigment protein crosses with a snapdragon with a defective gene that produces no pigment, resulting in a white snapdragon. The offspring receive one allele from each parent, resulting in half the amount of pigmentation for red color being expressed. The offspring will be pink snapdragons instead of red or white.

Answer:

when a dominant allele, or form of a gene, does not completely mask the effects of a recessive allele, and the organism's resulting physical appearance shows a blending of both allele

Explanation:

Cross-pollination between red snapdragons and white snapdragons result in pink when neither the white or the red alleles are dominant.

densk [106]

Answer:

Osmosis is the process of having water pass from a low concentration medium to a high concentration one, given that the barrier (membrane) is semi-permeable.

Explanation

Cells encounter osmosis due to their semi-permeable membranes. Water can flow past cell membranes. A given cell placed into distilled water will have some water flow into it, causing it to burst. A given cell placed in a very concentrated water will have some water flow out of it, causing it to shrivel. A given cell placed in a solution with the same concentration of minerals as the cell will have an equilibrium of water flowing in and out. This is the case of IV (Intravenous therapy) when we want to deliver substances into a human blood. We want to make sure the liquid delivered is as concentrated as the blood to avoid cell shriveling or bursting.

This picture above sums up the 3 cases cells could face in a solution.

Good luck!
