If this trisomic male (ey+ ey-, gw+ gw-) is crossed with a (ey− ey−, gw− gw−) female, what proportion of the progeny will be phe

notypically wild-type?

Biology

The Ey and the gw abbreviations stand for eyeless and gawky genes in the fruit fly Drosophila. A wild-type individual has at least one dominant allele for both of these genes.
In the cross presented below, you can see that 25% (shown in red) of the progeny would be wild-type and the rest of the progeny would show at least one recessive trait (eyeless or gawky)

Answer:

Yes, this is true.

It has been estimated that upwards of 75% of processed foods on supermarket shelves – from soda to soup, crackers to condiments – contain genetically engineered ingredients.

( found the definition on the web just in case you weren't sure. hope this helps :)

Explain how xylem cells are adapted for their function.<br>​
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

Xylem cells have no cytoplasm or end walls, meaning they form a tube through which water can pass freely to allow water transport. Lignin strengthens the cell walls, helping to support the plant.

What two processes must take place in order to go from a gene to a protein?
yanalaym [24]

Most genes contain the information needed to make functional molecules called proteins. (A few genes produce other molecules that help the cell assemble proteins.) The journey from gene to protein is complex and tightly controlled within each cell. It consists of two major steps: transcription and translation. Together, transcription and translation are known as gene expression.

During the process of transcription, the information stored in a gene's DNA is transferred to a similar molecule called RNA (ribonucleic acid) in the cell nucleus. Both RNA and DNA are made up of a chain of nucleotide bases, but they have slightly different chemical properties. The type of RNA that contains the information for making a protein is called messenger RNA (mRNA) because it carries the information, or message, from the DNA out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm.

Translation, the second step in getting from a gene to a protein, takes place in the cytoplasm. The mRNA interacts with a specialized complex called a ribosome, which "reads" the sequence of mRNA bases. Each sequence of three bases, called a codon, usually codes for one particular amino acid. (Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins.) A type of RNA called transfer RNA (tRNA) assembles the protein, one amino acid at a time. Protein assembly continues until the ribosome encounters a “stop” codon (a sequence of three bases that does not code for an amino acid).

The flow of information from DNA to RNA to proteins is one of the fundamental principles of molecular biology. It is so important that it is sometimes called the “central dogma.”

Through the processes of transcription and translation, information from genes is used to make proteins.

Within each kidney, blood capillaries and structures called glomerular capsules are made of an epithelial tissue specifically su
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer: The glomerulus is filled with blood via an afferent arteriole and it is ensheathed in visceral SQUAMOUS EPITHELIUM.

Explanation: Glomerular wall consists of fenestrated endothelium, thick basal lamina and podocytes' pedicels separated by filtration slits of controllable width. These permit the filtration of water solutes into a capsular space between glomerular epithelium and the parietal squamous epithelium of Bowman's capsule.

What makes water “neutral “ (pH of 7)
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

Even in pure water ions tend to form due to random processes (producing some H+ and OH- ions). The amount of H+ that is made in pure water is about equal to a pH of 7. That's why 7 is neutral. ... In pure water near room temperature, the concentration of H+ is about 10-7 moles/liter, which gives a pH of 7.
