Answer:
a. Heterozygous individuals may pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to offspring.
Explanation:
Tay-Sachs, which is a recessive lethal disease ---- Let say the recessive lethal diseases is s
∴ it only results when an individual posses two copies of the diseases-causing allele i.e two copies of the disease will be ss.
Now, when two hetrozygous individuals crossed , it is obvious that each can pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to the offspring.
Let show an illustration for the above statement.
Let the heterozygous individual be Ts, if Ts cross with another Ts;
we will have:
Ts × Ts
T s
T TT Ts
s Ts ss
the offspring are TT,Ts,Ts,ss
We can now see how the Heterozygous individuals pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to the offspring (Ts).
Answer: The respiration is a process, which occurs in all living organisms. In respiration a food or substrate present in the body is broken down into components in the present or absence of oxygen.
Explanation:
The respiratory membrane surface area is marked by the surface acquired by the small bronchi that branches into small bronchioles. Further the bronchioles extent to the alveoli for respiratory gas exchange.
In case of a human adult there are 300 million bronchi which cover an area of 180m². So, the total amount of respiratory surface area in healthy adult is 180m².
Answer:
Structure X is only found in plant cells, and structure Y is found in plant and animal cells.
Explanation:
The structure found on the outside of the onion cell is the cell wall, which is specific to plants. The structure found on the outside of the skin cell is the cell membrane, which is found on all cells.
Structure X is not living, and structure Y is living. - this is false, both animal and plant cells are living.
Structure X can be found in some human cells, and structure Y can be found in some plant cells. - this is false, the opposite is true.
Structure X is only found in plant cells, and structure Y is found in plant and animal cells. - this is true structure X is the plant cell wall, and structure Y is the cell membrane
Structure X is semipermeable, and structure Y is selectively permeable. Semi-permeable and selectively permeable are essentially the same thing - it means the barrier allows some substances to pass through but not others.
Answer:
Hydrogen Bonding. A hydrogen bond is a weak type of force that forms a special type of dipole-dipole attraction which occurs when a hydrogen atom bonded to a strongly electronegative atom exists in the vicinity of another electronegative atom with a lone pair of electrons
Explanation:
The characteristic it shows is Growth
