Answer:
This question lacks options, options are: A) Heterochromatin and euchromatin
B) Uniform in the genetic information they contain
C) Separated by large sketches of repetitive DNA
D) Each void of typical protein-coding sequences of DNA
E) Void of introns.
The correct answer is A.
Explanation:
The chromatin or substance that makes up the nuclei of cells and that results from the interaction of DNA with histonic and non-histonic proteins and RNA; it can present different degrees of packing or contraction. When chromosomes are stained with chemicals that bind to DNA, densely stained regions and less densely stained regions appear. Heterochromatin are segments of the chromosome that stain strongly and remain visible, practically, during the entire cell cycle. There are few genes in these regions and therefore low transcriptional activity. They are supercondensed regions. Euchromatin are segments of the chromosome that are not visible during telophase and interphase, only in metaphase. It corresponds to regions that are less compact and in which there is a higher gene density.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Matthew is not expressing the trait because he must be carrying the recessive gene of Achondroplastic dwarfism compared to Jane who is a dwarf with the genotype Aa
A pedigree is a symbolic diagram that is used to show the presence and presentation of specific alleles in the families of both parents. This is used mostly for genetically controlled diseases and conditions. If a couple is in genetic counseling a pedigree is valuable in helping to determine the risk of that couple having a child that will either present with the condition or be a carrier for the condition. A pedigree is also composed in a way, with shapes and colors, that is an easy to understand visual representation of the inheritance patterns.
