Answer:
If the two organisms are heterozygous for the dominant trait.
Explanation:
For every trait, a diploid organism receives two forms of gene called ALLELE, from each parent. Allele is the variant form of a gene.
According to Mendel's law of dominance, for a particular trait, an allele is capable of masking the expression of another allele in a gene. The expressed allele is called the DOMINANT allele while the masked allele is called the RECESSIVE allele. Due to this, an organism can express a dominant trait even in a combined or heterozygous state i.e. different alleles.
When the two heterozygous organisms mate or are crossed, they undergo meiosis and their alleles are separated into GAMETES according to Mendel's law of segregation. For example; an organism with genotype (genetic make-up) Aa will produce gametes with A and a alleles.
Note that, a recessive trait can only be expressed in a homozygous state i.e. same allele. Hence, the two heterozygous organisms will produce gametes containing the recessive allele, which will likely combine to produce a recessive phenotype or trait.
Answer:
The polar bear is an animal which is prevalent in the arctic region of the world which is characterized by very cold icy climate.
They adapt to these climatic conditions by maintaining a body temperature of 37°C through its thick fur and tough skin. It also has an insulating fat layer (adipose tissues) which is very thick.
This insulation helps in keeping the animal very warm in extreme temperatures.
Answer:
D. It is the general term used to describe the amount of water vapor in the air
Explanation:
It's been a while since I've taken meteorology (2 years), but I think this is the correct answer because humidity in general refers to the amount of water vapor in the air and as we are discussing relative humidity, it cannot indicate the actual quantity of water vapor in the air (thus ruling out B). Therefore, D makes the most sense. I believe C refers to adiabatic cooling.
Answer:
D. Limit further logging and clearcutting of pine trees.
Explanation:
Good afternoon. An organelle is any structure in cells that has a specialized function. They are usually found in eukaryotic (nucleus) cells. They help with energy, making proteins, and removing wastes from a certain area. They are composed of large molecules such as proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and nucleic acids. I hope I helped!! If you have any more questions then don't hesitate to let me know. Have a great day!!
