Answers:
- Mendelian inheritance states that traits are determined when offspring receive <u>alleles </u>for each trait from <u>Parents</u>.
Explanation:
As per Mendel, all the traits which are present in an offspring are determined by specific genes which exist in alternate forms called alleles. For example: The height of a plant is a trait which is determined by alleles T for tall height and t for small height of same gene. The organisms acquire these alleles from parents (one allele from each parent).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Traits can be <u>Dominant </u>which means they can be seen and are capable of masking a different trait.
Explanation:
Dominant trait means when only a single dominant allele for the trait in an organism is enough for the organism to depict the trait. For example: In pea plant, purple flower color is a dominant trait over white. So any plant who contains only one dominant allele for purple (allele P) will have purple flowers but all plants that have two pp alleles will have recessive trait i.e White flowers.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Traits can also be <u>Recessive </u>which means they can be masked.
As mentioned in above example, white flower color of pea plant is a recessive trait. Recessive means that if a plant has one copy of recessive and one copy of dominant allele, the dominant allele will suppress or mask the effect of dominant allele. Example is the above case of flower color when a plant with genotype Pp will have purple but not white flowers.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Alleles are different versions of the same <u>gene </u>in an organism.
Alleles are just alternate forms of a gene. For example if a plant height is determined by a gene L, it has two forms capital L and small l which are alleles of same gene. But capital L is for tall height and small l is for short height.

A. Sediment
Both weathering and erosion produce sediment
Weathering, by definition, is the physical integration and chemical decomposition of earth materials at or near the earth’s surface. Erosion, by definition, is the gradual destruction of something by natural forces (e.g. water, wind, ice). Therefore, the characteristic of both weathering and erosion is that it occurs naturally.
Answer:
18 is the nuclesus, 20 is the smooth endoplasmic reticulum and 21 is the golgi apparatus and 19 is the microtubes and 17 is the vacules.
Explanation:
Based on the CDC guidelines a person with a CD4+ cell count between 200-400 is regarded as being in <u>the second stage</u> of the HIV infection.
Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is a condition caused by HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). AIDS is a chronic disorder and can become life-threatening for the infected person. The HIV viruses reproduce inside the host and while doing so they destroy the CD4+ immune cells which reduce the person's ability to fight against other diseases.
CD4+ cell count and AIDS
According to the CDC (U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), HIV infection is categorized into different stages based on the number of CD4+ cells.
- Stage 1: - CD4+ cell count is more than 500 per microlitre. There are no symptoms or AIDS-related conditions.
- Stage 2: - CD4+ cell count is more than 500 per microlitre. There are no symptoms or AIDS-related conditions.
- Stage 3: - The CD4+ cell count falls below 200 and AIDS-related symptoms and conditions are present.
