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.

Each species has a specific identifying number of chromosomes. For example, a cat, felis catus, has 38 chromosomes, while corn,
tester [92]

Answer:

Each species has a specific identifying number of chromosomes. For example, a cat, <em>Felis catus</em>, has 38 chromosomes, while corn, <em>Zea mays</em>, has 20 chromosomes each chromosome carries specific genes that are unique to that chromosome.

Explanation:

Chromosomes vary in shape and number among living beings. For example, the bacterial chromosome is a unique circular molecule, while human beings have 46 lineal chromosomes arranged in pairs (23 pairs). The total number of chromosomes is specific to each species, and it is denoted as the "chromosomic dotation" of the species.

Genes are the hereditable units that transmit the information needed to specify traits, from parents to offspring, generation to generation. Genes are arranged in sequence in the chromosomes. A chromosome might contain hundreds of thousands of genes.

Genes vary in size and shape.  They are composed of pairs of bases, and these sequences also vary in number, producing genes of different lengths. In general, genes code for proteins. Proteins create the organism tissues and perform or carry out specific functions in the organisms, controlling almost all processes and chemical reactions.

Each chromosome carries <u>specific</u> genes that code for <u>specific </u>proteins that have <u>specific</u> functions in the organisms. Each chromosome carries information to synthesize different proteins needed to accomplish a certain function. But <u>not all chromosomes carry the same gene sequences</u>. Only homologous chromosomes carry information for the same trait, but even this information is not necessarily the same. They might have the same gene but different alleles.

If you found a vertebrate skull in the woods and the teeth were sharp and scissor-like, what type of food would you expect this
Zepler [3.9K]

The correct answer is: B) flesh of another animal

The shape of teeth is tightly connected with the food that animal eats.Examples:

• Herbivores (plant eaters) have flat teeth specialized for the grass chewing.

• Carnivores (flesh eaters) have long and sharp teeth for meat cutting.

• Omnivores (eat meat and plants) such as humans have various types of teeth with different functions.

There are four main types of teeth: incisors (at the front, sharp for cutting), canines ( to grip and tear food), premolars (flat surface for food crushing), molars (the biggest with flat biting surface, to chew).
