Answer:

Insertion is a type of mutation which adds nucleotide to an already existing gene sequence. It can lead to genetic disorders due to the change of gene sequence. An example of this genetic disorder is the trisomy 21 or commonly known as Down syndrome. Instead of having 46 cells, those people having this disorder have 47 cells because there is an extra copy of there gene 21.

You cross purple-flowered and white-flowered pea plants, and all offspring are purple. how come? select one:
Vaselesa [24]
To solve this problem on genetic dominance, we will need a punnet square.

Let's let P represent purple-flowered and p represent white-flowered.

We have one purple flowered plant with the alleles PP, and we have one white flowered plant with the alleles pp. Using a punnet square, we can determine the alleles of the offspring.

       <u>P</u>     <u>P</u>
p|    Pp   Pp

p |   Pp   Pp

As we can tell from our punnet square, all of our offspring will have purple flowers. This is because the purple-flower allele is dominant and the white-flowered allele is recessive.

Since each flower has a dominant and recessive allele, they are heterozygous.

Therefore, the solution to this problem is D.
