Calico cats are almost always female because the gene for coat color is

Reptile [31]2 years ago

Answer:In rare cases, a male cat can inherit two X chromosomes in addition to his Y chromosome (Klinefelter Syndrome). ... If the two X chromosomes do not carry the same allele (i.e., the cat's genotype is XBXbY), then the male will express calico coloration, just as a female would.

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

a. different alleles of the seed shape gene.

Explanation:

Mendel crossed different varieties of pea plants and he observed how phenotypic traits passed to the progeny. From these experiments, Mendel formulated the 'First Law of Segregation', where he observed that traits may exist in pairs that segregate (separate) at meiosis. During meiosis, i.e., gamete formation, these two factors separate from each other, thereby each gamete has the same probability of receiving either factor. Nowadays, we know that these two factors represent two different gene variants or 'alleles' for a given gene <em>locus</em>. Alleles can be classified into dominant or recessive as in the example above described, where the R factor (round) dominates on the r factor (wrinkled) to determine the seed shape.

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

The option 'All cells contain a nucleus' is not a part of the cell theory.

Explanation:

The cell theory proposed by scientists illustrates that every organism whether prokaryotic or eukaryotic is made up of a cell or different kinds of cells. It also that explains that cells are made from living things. According to the cell theory, cells are termed as the basic unit of life, without which life is not possible.

The cell theory does not claim that every cell must have a nucleus because many cells like cells of prokaryotes lack nucleus. Their genetic material is dispersed in the cytoplasm.
