It shows how individuals within a family are related to each other. We can also indicate which individuals have a particular trait or genetic condition. If we take a pedigree, which we usually try to include at least three generations, we might be able to determine how a particular trait is inherited.

By analyzing a pedigree, we can determine genotypes, identify phenotypes, and predict how a trait will be passed on in the future. The information from a pedigree makes it possible to determine how certain alleles are inherited: whether they are dominant, recessive, autosomal, or sex-linked.


An animal is considered to have a good pedigree when all its known ancestors are of the same type. 60 percent of dogs and ten percent of cats have pedigrees. 2. countable noun. Someone's pedigree is their background or their ancestors.

In medical genetics and other medical fields, a proband, proposito (male proband), or proposita (female proband) is a particular subject (person or animal) being studied or reported on. On pedigrees, the proband is noted with a square (male) or circle (female) shaded accordingly.

Pedigrees are drawn using standard symbols and formatting. Males are represented by squares and females by circles. Individuals who are deceased have a slash through the symbol representing them. Symbols for individuals affected by a particular disorder are shaded.

Scientists have devised another approach, called pedigree analysis, to study the inheritance of genes in humans. ... Once phenotypic data is collected from several generations and the pedigree is drawn, careful analysis will allow you to determine whether the trait is dominant or recessive.

Pedigree analysis is done in the study of human genetics because control crosses cannot be possible in human being and age of human is more. Pedigree analysis can be used to trace the inheritance of a specific trait abnormality or disease.

Which of the following substances would have the most trouble crossing a biological membrane by diffusing through the lipid bila
tangare [24]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

d. Na+

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • The cell membrane's main trait is its selective permeability, which means that it allows some substances to cross it easily, but not others.
  • <em><u>Small molecules that are non-polar (have no charge) can cross the membrane easily through diffusion, but ions (charged molecules) and larger molecules typically cannot.</u></em>
  • Charged ions  such as N+ and K+ Cannot permeate the cell membrane for the since uncharged molecules repel uncharged molecules present in the membrane structure.

Mitosis and meiosis are similar processes, but they have some very important differences. Explain how mitosis and meiosis are al
solmaris [256]
Similarities: Mitosis and meiosis both involve cell replication. They both involve prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
Differences: Meiosis creates gametes while mitosis creates somatic cells. Mitosis creates two daughter cells, while meiosis creates four sperm cells in men and one egg cell and three polar bodies in women. Mitosis involves one round of cell division, while meiosis involves two. Mitosis creates cells that have the same number of chromosomes as the original cell, while meiosis creates cells that have half the number of chromosomes as the original cell.
Hope that helped you. 
P.S. There are more similarities and differences, challenge yourself and see if you can find them! Good luck.

I don’t understand biology at all and I am worried about how to pass biology . Does anyone have study tips for biology or anyway
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Biology is not a hard class however it does require memorization and comprehension of certain topics. I recommend that you read over the chapters and make flashcards and test yourself. You can also ask your teacher for help. There are many videos available that do a great job at explaining each topic in biology. In addition, there are various websites that can also provide information. You should make study groups with your classmates as it is a more fun and effective way of studying.
