Answer:
There is likelihood of inheriting a mutation from your parents would be based on the type of cell in which the mutation was found.
Explanation:
There are two basic types of cell; the germinal cells and the somatic cells. The germinal cells give rise to gamete and these gametes are responsible for the formation of offspring which are produced by the parents. A mutation in any of the gamete that partakes in fertilization will be transferred to the offspring. Mutation that occurs in the gametic cell is called germinal mutation.
The other cell is the somatic cell. The somatic cell are cells in living organism other than the reproductive cell. The somatic cells mutation cannot be transferred to their offspring because most somatic mutations are caused by environmental factors such as radiation and chemicals
A mutant clone might arise if the mutation occurs in a tissue that still has its cell still dividing but if the mutation is in a post-mitotic cell that is, one that is no longer dividing, then the effect on phenotype is likely to be negligible. The result of somatic mutation in a parent can then be transferred to the offspring through the gametic cell

Lesson Overview Leaves Homeostasis If stomata were kept open all the time, water loss due to transpiration would be so great that few plants would be able to take in enough water to survive"
the answer to this problem is c
The statement above is FALSE.
When a particular specie in an ecosystem is endangered, other species that interact with it will be negatively affected and the ecosystem may be throw out of balance. This is because all the components of the ecosystem depend on one another for survival.
Answer:
approximately 200
Explanation:
From the question, we have
probability of red = 0.75
Probability of white = 0.25
We are required to find the probability of 6 red + 2 white plants offspring and after we do we multiply it by 640
We will solve this using the binomial theorem method
(a+b)⁸ = a⁸+8a⁷b+28a⁶b²+56a⁵b³+70a⁴b⁴+56a³b⁵+28a²b⁶+8a¹b⁷+b⁸
The required probability is 28a⁶b²
a = 0.75
b = 0.25
= 28 x 0.75⁶ x 0.25² x 640
= 28 x 0.178 x 0.0625 x 640
= 199.36
Which is approximately 200 crosses would be needed
