Answer:
This is due to the event of Speciation that happened for the rodents in Island B but not for the rodents in Island C.
Explanation:
- Due to splitting of the population,
- The sub-population of rodents formed in Island B are B1 and B2.
- The sub-population of rodents formed in Island C are C1 and C2.
- In case of Island B, each of the B1 and B2 sub-populations that got split from each other developed certain mutations that were necessary for them to adapt to the particular diverse environment each of them were exposed to, through the period of 50,000 years. These mutations were so varied that reproductive isolation was generated between them that resulted in each of them to develop into different species.Hence, speciation happens here and B1 and B2 are incapable of inter-breeding.
- In case of Island C, each of the C1 and C2 sub-populations that got split might have got exposed to similar environmental change or no environmental change or the environmental change might have been too small to cause drastic change in each of the sub-populations. As a result of this the two sub-populations might have acquired certain mutations to adapt to the environment each of them were exposed to, through a period of 100,000 years. These mutations might not have been too variable or contrasting to cause reproductive isolation between C1 and C2. Hence, no new speciation happens here and C1 and C2 are capable of inter-breeding.
<u>Stem cell </u>research has the potential to significantly impact the development of disease-modifying treatments for Parkinson’s disease with considerable progress made in creating dopamine-progressing cells.
Explanation:
Parkinson’s disease, a neurodegenerative disease, leads to reduction of dopamine (a neurochemical messenger which carries messages involving thinking and body movements to brain) in the body because the disease will target and kill dopamine-producing nerve cells (neurons). This leads to loss of movement and thinking abilities which are activated by dopamine.
Stem cells research is done to study about the prospects of stem cells in stem cell therapy for Parkinson’s patients as a viable source of new dopamine nerve cells. Research has been involved in growing stem cells to replace or regenerate dopamine-producing nerve cells by using embryonic stem cells or induced pluripotent stem cells as a treatment modality in Parkinson’s disease.
Answer:
It's impossible to predict the phenotype of the offspring by only observing the parents because DNA from their grandparents can affect the offspring as well.
Explanation:
DNA is combined from the parents to create offspring. When that offspring reproduces their children not only possess DNA from their parents but from their grandparents as well. Mixing together two separate DNA's from two different family trees can result in rare genetic mutations which results in the offspring looking different from their parents but showing resemblance to their grandparents. This is why you have to look at the phenotypes of more then just the two parents because there are more possibilities, including what their grandparents looked like.
The correct answer is A.
Animal cells do not have a cell wall.
A cell wall is the rigid, outermost covering of plant cells and is made up of cellulose. It is absent in animal cells. The cell wall is visible under a light microscope.
Animal cells are instead covered by a cell membrane. It is made up of lipids, proteins, and small amounts carbohydrates. It is a thin and delicate structure that can only be seen using an electron microscope.
Assuming the white phenotype is recessive. white: gg
I think the gray mouse is Gg because the offspring were pretty equally distributed in terms of color. See the punnet square below.
g g
G| Gg Gg
g| gg gg
If the Gray phenotype is recessive, then gray: ww but only if white is Ww because its about 50% chance for both.
