Answer:

D) Neither of the parental genes is dominate over the other.

Explanation:

<em>Since the trait on the offspring is a mixture from both parent, it means that neither of the alleles from both parents is completely dominant over the other. Instead, each of the alleles contributes equally to the trait of the offspring.</em>

This effectively explains the fact that each trait exhibited by offspring is a blend of the traits from the two parents.

The correct option is D.

ANSWER: The completion of the Human Genome Project

EXPLANATION:

Human Genome Project (HGP) was completed in April, 2003. Genome varies from one individual to another.

The project involved mapping and sequencing of some people and in other to get each chromosome full sequence in individuals.

However, at the beginning of this project, concerns like ownership and privacy of personal genetic information began to spring up. People are afraid that employers may have access to their genetic information and would reject persons with health issues indicated by their unique genes and health insurance companies may also not provide insurance to people that have deficiency.

In the view of this concern, the United States in 1996 passed the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) which guides against the non-consensual and unauthorized release of health information of individuals.

What is the relationship between proto-oncogenes and oncogenes? hints what is the relationship between proto-oncogenes and oncog
Elan Coil [88]
Oncogenes result from turning on, or activating proto oncogenes. Proto oncogenes are genes that code for positive cell cycle regulators, so proto oncogenes code for proteins that turn on cell division. Proto oncogenes are normal genes, but when they are mutated, they become oncogenes.  Oncogenes are expressed too much, which makes them  turn on cell division too much, which is cancer.

In a group of muskmelon plants, some individuals have sour fruit and others have sweet fruit. in this group, the gene for the fr
juin [17]

Correct option(s):

(b) This muskmelon plant's genotype for the fruit taste gene is ff.

(c) This muskmelon plant is homozygous for the fruit taste gene.

A dominant allele is one that is capable of expressing itself even in the heterozygous condition and overshadows the effect of the recessive allele. It is usually denoted by a capital letter. Recessive allele on the contrary cannot express in presence of a dominant allele and is denoted by a small letter.

In the given case the fruit with a sour taste (phenotype) can have two possible genotypes (FF and Ff). The genotype of sweet taste is ff which is a homozygous condition.  

Note: Your question is incomplete, probably your complete question is “In a group of muskmelon plants, some individuals have sour fruit and others have sweet fruit. in this group, the gene for the fruit taste trait has two alleles. the allele F is for sour fruit, and the allele f is for sweet fruit. a certain muskmelon plant from this group has sweet fruit. this plant has two alleles for sweet fruit. Choose the correct option:

(a)  this muskmelon plant's genotype for the fruit taste trait is sweet fruit.

(b) this muskmelon plant's genotype for the fruit taste gene is ff.

(c) this muskmelon plant is homozygous for the fruit taste gene.”
