Why human with heterozygous genotype will have the dominant phenotype?

Biology
1 answer:
AnnZ [28]2 years ago
5 0

A human with heterozygous genotype can have a dominant phenotype if one of the alleles complete mask the effects of the other.

  • Heterozygous genotype involves two different alleles, unlike homzygous genotypes in which the alleles are the same.
  • When the two alleles of an heterozygous genotype exert equal effects on one another, they are said to be codominant.
  • When one of the alleles of an heterozygous genotype incompletely exert its effects on the other allele, it is said to be incomplete dominance.
  • When one of the alleles complete dominates and masks the effects of the other allele, it is said to be dominant.

Hence, a dominant allele will always produce a dominant phenotype even if the genotype of the organism is heterozygous.

Why does water move along its concentration gradients?
Artemon [7]
There is an electrical gradient and there is a concentration gradient.

1.) Chemical gradient better known as concentration gradient is much more powerful and compelling than the electrical gradient.

2.) Water is a polar molecule, meaning one side it positively charged while the other is negatively charged. This polar charged molecule causes water to have a weaker electrical gradient, thus the water has to move on its concentration gradient.

First-pass effect.

  
The first-pass effect involves drugs that are given PO and absorbed from the small intestine directly into the portal venous system, which delivers the drug molecules to the liver. Once in the liver, enzymes break the drug into metabolites; they may become active or may be deactivated and readily excreted from the body. A large percentage of the oral dose is usually destroyed and never reaches tissues. Oral dosages account for this phenomenon to ensure an appropriate amount of the drug in the body to produce a therapeutic action. Passive diffusion is the major process through which drugs are absorbed into the body. Active transport is a process that uses energy to actively move a molecule across a cell membrane and is often involved in drug excretion in the kidney. Glomerular filtration is the passage of water and water-soluble components from the plasma into the renal tubule.
