Answer:

Reverse transcriptase.

Explanation:

Reverse transcriptase may be defined as the enzyme used for the generation of the complementary DNA. Most viruses convert the RNA molecule into DNA in which RNA is present as genetic material.

The enzyme reverse transcriptase uses the RNA molecule as a template to produce the complementary DNA copy. This process is known as reverse transcription.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

A bond of the following elements would be of what type? Na + Cl <br><br> Covalent or ionic
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

ionic

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.

There are one valance electron in sodium so it needed to lose one valance electrons to complete the octet while chlorine needed one electron to complete the octet. Thus electrons lost by sodium atom is gained by atom of chlorine and form ionic compound.

2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl

Suppose the two possible alleles for the height gene are tall and short. If short is recessive to tall, provide the symbol repre
navik [9.2K]

Phenotype - short , Tall

Genotype - tt (short) , TT or Tt (tall)

<u>Explanation:</u>

In Mendelian Genetics, <em>Dominant traits</em> are represented by capital letters and <em>Recessive traits</em> are represented by small letters.

So if height is the character considered, then the traits would be short and tall.

Tall is the dominant phenotype and short is the recessive phenotype.

The alleles of the gene for height are T and t.

The genotype for Tall trait is TT or Tt.

The genotype for short trait is tt.

Therefore, the symbol representation of phenotype (Tall) is TT or Tt and for phenotype (short) is tt.
