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.

Which of the following is NOT a function of proteins?
OleMash [197]

Answer:

Used as the primary source of energy in living organisms

Explanation:

Proteins are the main structural and functional molecules of the body. They make up hormones that are used in signaling, make up the structure of cells, immunoglobulins, carrier proteins, and etcetera. However, the main energy source of the cells is glucose (sourced from carbohydrates). Protein is metabolized as the last resort after glucose and fats. This is because protein breakdown has toxic nitrogenous byproducts (such as creatinine, ammonia, and urea) due to their amino group.

How can bacteriophage dna be spread from cell to cell without causing cell death?
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

through lysogenic cycle

Explanation:

The bacteriophage attaches itself on the bacterial surface. The DNA strand to be replicated is injected into the bacteria by the bacteriophage. The DNA integrates into the bacterial chromosome and  becomes a pro-phage.

The bacterial cell proceeds to cell division  through budding. The progeny possess the bacteriophage. After complete replication, the virus DNA  detaches from the host genome and enters the lytic cycle. The capsid heads assemble on the surface of bacterial cell to package the fully matured viral DNA . The phage produces lytic enzymes that weaken the cell wall of bacteria cell.
