In order for offspring to have a dominant mutation, they need at least one copy of the allele from either or both parents. So yes, at least one of the parents must have the mutated gene in order for the offspring to have the mutation.
For your second question, I'm not quite sure what you mean so I will restate two possibilities for what I think you mean:
1. The offspring does not have the mutation if none of the parents have the mutated gene: this is correct.
2. If the mutation is recessive and the child has only one copy of the mutated allele, then the child will not show the mutation. If none of the parents had the mutated gene, then it would not be possible for the child to have the mutated gene or show it.
The answer to this question is the nucleus
Answer:
The correct answer is option B) "To avoid the introduction or spread of insects or disease that damage native trees".
Explanation:
The regulations introduced by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources include the proper handling of firewood, which prohibits the use of firewood from one protected area into other protected areas. The reason behind this regulation is to avoid the introduction or spread of insects or disease that damage native trees. Each tree in each protected location is adapted to its local fauna. Serious environmental damage could arise from introducing insects from a protected area to another by improper handling of firewood.
When a species of animals go endangered or extinct, they effect other animal species. For example, if all the chickens went extinct, a large piece of the human diet would be vanished, which would cause humans to hunt other animals.
