Irina18 [472]

Answer:

e. Red segregated from brown in meiosis I, and straight segregated from curled in meiosis I.

Explanation:

A cross between two flies heterozygous for both genes produced an offspring with the phenotypic ratio of 9:3:3:1. This ratio is expected according to Mendel's law of independent assortment, which states that alleles of the same gene assort independently during gamete formation.

Before meiosis starts in flies, a single diploid cell duplicates its DNA, so each chromosome has 2 sister chromatids that contain the same information.

  • During meiosis I, <u>the homologous chromosomes separate</u> into two daughter cells. The chromosome number is reduced by half, but each chromosome has two sister chromatids.
  • During meiosis II, <u>the sister chromatids separate</u> and each daughter cell from meiosis I divides into two new daughter cells (to get the total of 4 haploid cells).

In a heterozygous fly, each homologous chromosome contains a different allele, and the sister chromatids are copies that carry the same allele. For that reason, both traits were segregated during meiosis I.

Select all the advantages of a multienzyme complex over a metabolic pathway
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Option A, B, C

Explanation:

The major advantages of multienzyme complex over a metabolic pathway is that it do not require individual pathway for each enzyme activation or inhibition. Instead it responds efficiently to the equilibrium changes of substrate supply and demand as compared to that of enzymes.

It tightly regulates the processes and is also faster than that of the metabolic pathway.

Hence, option A, B and C are correct

The microsporidian Brachiola gambiae parasitizes the mosquito Anopheles gambiae. Adult female mosquitoes must take blood meals f
aalyn [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. 1, 2, and 4

Explanation:

Option no 1 is true because before maturity, the mosquitoes will not be able to cause malaria and will be easier to kill.

Option no 2 is true because in order to ensure a safe control, the Brachiola gambiae shouldn't be dangerous to other animals or insects.

Option No 3 is not true because Mosquito larvae will contain the male larvae also. As the male larvae are not harmful, hence their growth shouldn't be stopped or they should not be killed.

Option No 4 is correct because before applying any controlling measures for a problem, it should always be kept in mind that it should not have negative effects on other food systems.

Answer No 5 is false because as the females Anopheles are harmful, they should be killed. The male Anopheles are not harmful hence, they should not be killed.

What do echinoderms and chordates have in common?
nekit [7.7K]

Three important characteristics such as a notochord, a dorsal hollow nerve cord, and pharyngeal gill slits, should appear at any stage of their life cycle. These are the characteristics of the chordates. Members of echinoderms share resemblance with chordates in presence of a notochord.
