Bones do not have a role in __________. bones do not have a role in __________. support movement glycogen production fat storage

mafiozo [28]

The correct answer is that bones do not have a role in glycogen production. Glycogen is only produced by two organs of the body; the muscles and the liver. Bones and bone structures function to support movement by serving as insertions for the muscles. The tissue inside the bone is called the bone marrow; which is divided into red marrow (functions for blood cell formation) and yellow marrow (functions to store fat).

9. in your own words compare and contrast cell division in prokaryotes and eukaryotes

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Cell division is simpler in prokaryotes than eukaryotes because prokaryotic cells themselves are simpler. Prokaryotic cells have a single circular chromosome, no nucleus, and few other cell structures. Eukaryotic cells, in contrast, have multiple chromosomes contained within a nucleus, and many other organelles.

1. Why are two thick cotton sheets warmer than one single blanket

mash [69]

Since the air is a great thermal isolator, the windows prevent heat exchange better than one made out of a single thick sheet of glass. The air between the thin blankets is not moving around and will form an isolating layer that acts exactly like another blanket, thus improving the thermal isolation

Toemas’s syndrome is a autosomal dominant disease, homozygous lethal, seen at a frequency of 1 in 10,000 cats. Felines with this

Anastaziya [24]

Answer: 50% or 25% according to the genotype of the male cat.

Explanation:

The female cat is unaffected, and since this is an autosomal dominant diease, it means this cat does not have any affected alleles. Thereby,<u> its genotype is aa</u>. This is because dominant alleles show their effect even if the organisms only has one copy of the allele. The male cat is affected with this syndrome <u>so its genotype is either AA or Aa</u>. For this disease to manifest itself, only one affected allele is needed. Although both alleles can be affected so the individual can be homozygous dominant or heterozygous.

To find this we have to do a punnett square. Here, we use the gametes produced by each individual. <u>Gametes are sex cells, egg or sperm, which only have one allele of each gene.</u>

Assuming that the cross is between aa and AA, the gametes produced by "aa" are "a", and the gametes produced by "AA" are "A" So we are having a cross between an "a" gamete and a "A" gamete. 100% of the offspring will be Aa so it is a heterozygous, which will develope this syndrome. And, males have one Y chromosome and one X chromosomes, thereby the chances of having a male kitten is 50%. Then, to conclude, there is a 50% chances of having a male kitten with this syndrome.

And, assuming that the cross is between aa and Aa, the gametes produced by "Aa" are "A" but also "a" So we are habing a cross between an "a" gamete and "A" or "a" gamete (See picture) In this example, there is a 50% chances of having a kitten with the syndrome, because only one genotype produced (Aa) has the affected allele. And, as we said before, since there is a 50% chances of having a male kitten, we can said that there is a 25% chances of having an affected male. Because to calculate both probabilities so that they occur simultaneously, it is necessary to multiply them. That is, 0.5 x 0.5 = 0.25 x 100 = 25%.
