Example of Non-inherited Trait. Explain how the trait is gained (pea plants)

Biology
1 answer:
Komok [63]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Examples of non-inherited-traits:

- At phenotypic level: parental body size that may influence offspring plant development. A plant with an obliquely inclined plant stem in order to absorb more sunlight

- At cellular level: DNA methylation at a specific <em>locus</em> due to environmental conditions  

Explanation:

Non-inherited traits (also known as learned traits) can be defined as cellular/phenotypic characteristics that not passed from parent to offspring. Non-inherited traits are the result of environmental factors. For example, in pea plants, the stem may grow with a different inclination compared to the observed in parental plants in order to absorb more sunlight. At the cellular level, non inherited traits are associated with environmental conditions that influence cellular characteristics (e.g., cold exposition may be capable of influencing the level of DNA methylation at individual Cytosine nucleotides). In humans, learned traits refer to traits that are culturally acquired (e.g.., learned from teachers, ​friends, parents, etc).

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

It can't be A as nuclei must be positive.

It can't be B as nuclei must contain at least one proton, and no electrons.

Technically C may be true, but the question is asking about the nucleus. Not the electron cloud. Electrons aren't found in the nucleus. Only protons and neutrons.

What's the difference between an artery and a vein?
emmainna [20.7K]
The difference between an artery and a vein is that arteries are larger, more muscular and more elastic than veins; they carry blood that is under pressure from having been pumped out of the heart; veins are under much less pressure, so they are not as strong

Multicellular organisms arose because of the process called endosymbiosis. The endosymbiosis theory posits that other unicellular organisms ate other organisms which has benefitted them into processing new mechanisms and functions.


A Eukaryotic cell contains a nucleus; more than one chromosome and is typically a multi-celled organism.  Both plant and animal cells are eukaryotic cells.

Which of the following is not a component of the hepatic triad found at the edges of a liver lobule?
goldenfox [79]

Answer: c) central vein.

Explanation:

The liver is an organ that is present both in humans and in vertebrate animals. It secretes the bile, essential for the digestion of fats, and it also has many other functions, including the synthesis of plasma proteins, storage of vitamins and glycogen and detoxifying function. It is responsible for removing various substances from the blood that may be harmful to the body, including alcohol, making them harmless.

The liver is divided by the sickle cell ligament into two main lobes, right and left. <u>There are two other smaller lobes, the square lobe and the caudate lobe</u>.

The hepatic triads are triangular areas located at the angles of the hepatic lobules, made up of a lax conjunctive stroma. <u>They contain a branch of the hepatic artery</u> (that irrigates the liver<u>),</u> <u>a hepatic portail vein</u> (a thick blood vessel that carries blood from the gastrointestinal tract and spleen to the liver so that nutrients are metabolized<u>)</u> and <u>a bile duct</u> (transports bile into the small intestine). Therefore, it does not contain a central vein.
