Answer: Environmental conditions, such as temperature and availability of nutrients can affect phenotypes. For example, temperature affects coat color in Siamese cats. ... Height in humans is a complex phenotype influenced by many genes, but it is also influenced by nutrition

Explanation: Hope this helps luv :)

Some mutations don't have any noticeable effect on the phenotype of an organism. This can happen in many situations: perhaps the mutation occurs in a stretch of DNA with no function, or perhaps the mutation occurs in a protein-coding region but ends up not affecting the amino acid sequence of the protein.

A lab-reared strain of mice is glucose 6-phosphate-insensitive. How would this affect glycogen synthesis? Select the best answer
yan [13]

Answer:

The best response is polyose synthesis would decline as a result of the b form of glycogen synthase couldn't be allosterically stimulated. In general, aldohexose six phosphate allosterically stimulates the protein polyose synthase. However as this mice is complex to aldohexose six phosphate, polyose synthase can't be stimulated, and as an effect polyose synthesis would decline.

serg [7]

<span>Research in behavioural genetics has shown that identical twins reared apart often have similar personality traits. This result suggests that both genetic inheritance and environmental factors contribute to personality. </span>

<span>Personality traits are under a significant degree of genetic influence, usually influenced by a very large number of genes but environmental influences also play a strong role. The environmental factors tend to make family members more different from one another, not more similar.</span>

4. Did the complete process of photosynthesis take place in the way you modeled it in this activity? Explain your answer.
Dafna1 [17]
Well I dont know exactly how you modeled your model in this activity (also, I notice this is a question from 2016), but I do know the two processes.

This is the process of making glucose in plants. Photosynthesis goes through two individual stages:  
Stage 1: L<span>ight dependent reaction</span> (depends on the presence of light; it can’t happen in the dark) 
Stage 2: Light independent (dark reaction) (works in the absence of light, but calling it a dark reaction might be misleading; It can just as well happen in the presence of light).

Match the characteristics with the phylum. Tongue-shaped structure called radula for grasping food spongin fibers or spicules fo
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

  • A Tongue-shaped structure called radula for grasping food --> Mollusca
  • Fleshy lobe-like structure called parapodia --> Annelida
  • Spongin fibers or spicules for support ---> Porifera

Explanation:

Radula: This is an organ used in feeding by mollusks. It constitutes a highly developed feeding organ. The radula has is conformed of small teeth-like structures located in rows. Lateral teeth vary in shape and size. The movements of the radula during feeding are complexes acting as a scratcher on the surface to get the food.

Parapodia: These are characteristic lateral appendixes that emerge and extend from each of the body segments of invertebrates such as polychaetes. The typical parapodium is a fleshy prolongation more or less laterally comprised and is composed of a superior branch (notopodium) and an inferior branch (parapodium).  

Spicules: Sponges (Poriferous) skeleton is composed of calcium carbonate and siliceous micro-structures called spicules. Their morphology is so varied that it is used in taxonomy for identification and classification.  

There are different kinds of spicules:  

- Monoaxonic spicule: needle-shaped, straights or curves

- Tetraxonic spicules: they have four prolongations  

- Triaxonic or Hexaxonic spicules

- Poliaxonic spicules  

Two terms can be applied to any of these spicules kinds:

- Megaspicules: They are elongated and compose the main architecture of the sponge skeleton

- Microspicules: Variable in shape and size, with ancillary functions

Sponges have few predators because of the spicule structures and their high toxicity. Many of them are capable of perforating soft tissues and producing urticant substances.
