Genetic differences between parents and offspring

Biology
1 answer:
Katen [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:Are the offspring genetically the same or different from their parents?

Explanation:Changes (mutations) to genes can result in changes to proteins, which can affect the structures and functions of the organism and thereby change traits. Variations of inherited traits between parent and offspring arise from genetic differences that result from the subset of chromosomes (and therefore genes) inherited.    

Answer:How can offspring be different from parents?

Explanation:Although an individual gene may code for a specific physical trait, that gene can exist in different forms, or alleles. ... In other cases, each parent provides a different allele of a given gene, and the offspring is referred to as heterozygous ("hetero" meaning "different") for that allele.

After the depletion of hepatic glycogen in newborns, which compounds can be used as precursors to sustain the blood glucose leve
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Nutrients from breast milk.

Explanation:

Healthy newborns make blood glucose from sugar and several nutrients from the colostrum, a type of liquid that mother’s breasts produce before breast milk itself. Later, the babies make glucose from mature breast milk.

Most healthy babies, born after 37 weeks of gestation do not risk hepatic glycogen drops. They can easily compensate for normal drops in blood sugar, in other words, whenever the baby is breastfed when needed, he/she will be able to keep  his/her glucose levels stable.

There are six classes of nutrients that must be considered when planning your diet: water, proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitami
KiRa [710]

Answer:

<u> Essential</u> nutrients cannot be synthesized by the human body but are required for optimal functioning. Therefore. They must be obtained from food. Omega-3 fatty acids are prime examples.

You consume macronutrients (water. proteins, carbohydrates, and fats) in large quantities as opposed to <u>micronutrients</u> which you consume in small quantities

<u>Dehydration</u> can develop very quickly when exercising in hot/humid weather conditions.

<u>Proteins</u> are also called 'bodybuilders" due to their function within the body. <u>Amino acids</u> are the building blocks of proteins.

Explanation:

Essential nutrients are those nutrients that are required for the proper functioning of the body but cannot be synthesized by the body.  They are obtained from external sources such as vegetables or synthesized artificially in the laboratories. Micronutrients as the name implies are taken in small amounts. Examples are the different types of vitamins.  

Dehydration occurs when a person loses a good amount of water through sweating or urination. It can easily occur while exercising in hot weather conditions. Proteins repair the cells in our body and are, therefore, rightfully referred to as bodybuilders. Amino acids form proteins.

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The sound will reach my ear in a shorter time in Scenario 1.

The speed of sound waves in solids is faster than it is in gases.

Explanation:

The sound which is produce due to hitting of metal bar with a drumstick reaches to the ears in short time because sound is a longitudinal wave which requires or needs medium for its propagation from one place to another and in solids the particles of medium are close to each other as compared to air so the sound travels faster in solid materials as compared liquid and gases and takes less time to reach my ears.
