Choose all that apply. Which of the following is true in a comparison of your skin cells to your kidney cells?

1 answer:

3 0

Given our understanding of the mechanisms behind genetic expression, we can confirm that when comparing skin cells to kidney cells, the only correct option is option 4 which states that the cells "transcribe many different genes".

The human genome encodes for every gene in the human body. This genome sequence is stored in the chromosomes of cells. These chromosomes are identical for every single cell in the human body. Therefore, every cell contains the same DNA, genes, and transcription factors in its chromosomes.

What allows each cell type in the human body the ability to differentiate from one another and complete vastly different functions is the way in which these genes are expressed. Though every cell contains the entire genetic code, only some genes for each cell are transcribed, which results in a different combination of proteins in each cell and leads to the difference between skin and kidney cells (as just one of many examples).

Shell color in clams is thought to be controlled by three different genes (each with two alleles). Shell coloration runs a range

sergejj [24]

The correct answer is A. Quantitative traits

Explanation:

In genetics, quantitative traits refer to traits or phenotypes (observable traits) that depend on many factors including multiple genes and actions in the environment. These traits differ from other traits because the traits tend to be more diverse in a population. In the case presented, the shell color in clams is an example of a quantitative trait because this phenotype is the result of three different each and each gene contains two alleles which means the color depends on many factors. Additionally, as most quantitative traits there is a higher variation in the phenotype considering clams can have different hues.

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

It is a facultative anaerobic organism.

Explanation:

This organism makes ATP (energy provider molecule) by aerobic respiration in presence of oxygen, but when oxygen is removed it is capable of switching to fermentation (sugar consumption increases and growth rate decreases).

This happens because fermentation is much less effective at producing ATP and therefore there is not enough energy for growth.

This organisms are called facultative anaerobic.

Organisms with this type of metabolism include bacteria like Escherichia coli and Salmonella or yeast like Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
