Microevolution refers to changes that occur within a single species or group or organisms. Microevolution, as opposed to macroevolution, occurs in a short period of time. In microevolution, the ancestor and the descendant obviously belong to the same type. For example, certain pests have evolved in such a way that they become immune to pesticides; the same thing has happened to certain weeds and herbicides. Hope this helps.
Answer:
17. C " TAAGCTG". It would be the replication strand because A always pairs with T and C always pairs with G, so replication strands just have the opposite base as the original strand
18. Transcription is the name given to the process in which DNA is copied to make a complementary strand of RNA. RNA then undergoes translation to make proteins. The major steps of transcription are initiation, promoter clearance, elongation, and termination.
19. Straight hair is controlled by a recessive allele because as you can see the one where is not shaded is the one that has the most. There are only 1 shaded circle or square, out of the 12 other circles or square that is not shaded. This means that it is the recessive allele because people are less prone to getting straight hair, as you can see in that diagram.
Wasn't this the same question you asked earlier?
Answer:
B
Explanation:
in photosynthesis CO2 is used to produce glucose NOT energy.
in cellular respiration O2 is used to produce energy NOT CO2.
in cellular respiration oxygen is used to produce energy and CO2.
Answer:
25%
Explanation:
When looking at a pedigree remember that:
- squares are males
- circles are females
- the solid colored figure represents an individual affected by a disease
- the empty figure represents a healthy individual
Let us assign the symbol X⁺ to represent the dominant allele linked to the X-chromosome and expressing healthiness, and X⁻ to represent the recessive allele expressing the dissease.
According to this pedigree
- I1 is a man affected by the disease, YX⁻
- I2 is a healthy woman X⁺X⁻
- we can see that among the progeny (generation II) there are two individuals affected (a boy and a girl) and one healthy girl. This means that the mother I2 is heterozygous for the trait.
So, having their genotypes we can know what are the probabilities of getting a son with DMD
Parentals) YX⁻ x X⁺X⁻
Gametes) Y X⁻ X⁺ X⁻
Punnett square)
X⁺ X⁻
X⁻ X⁺X⁻ X⁻X⁻
Y X⁺Y X⁻Y
F1)
- The probabilities of getting a healthy daughter X⁺X⁻ are 25%
- The probabilities of getting a healthy son X⁺Y are 25%
- The probabilities of getting a daughter with DMD X⁻X⁻ are 25%
- The probabilities of getting a son with DMD X⁻Y are 25%
