Answer:
a. Heterozygous individuals may pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to offspring.
Explanation:
Tay-Sachs, which is a recessive lethal disease ---- Let say the recessive lethal diseases is s
∴ it only results when an individual posses two copies of the diseases-causing allele i.e two copies of the disease will be ss.
Now, when two hetrozygous individuals crossed , it is obvious that each can pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to the offspring.
Let show an illustration for the above statement.
Let the heterozygous individual be Ts, if Ts cross with another Ts;
we will have:
Ts × Ts
T s
T TT Ts
s Ts ss
the offspring are TT,Ts,Ts,ss
We can now see how the Heterozygous individuals pass on their copy of the disease-causing allele to the offspring (Ts).
Answer:
Metaphase ⇒ Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
Prophase ⇒ DNA condenses to form chromosomes
Anaphase ⇒ Each chromosome separates and moves to opposite ends of the cell
Telophase ⇒ Nuclear membranes form around each set of chromosomes
Answer:
Nucleic Acids
Explanation:
Nucleic acids are made out of nucleotides and they come in two forms: Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) and Ribonucleic Acid (RNA). DNA holds the code of life, in other words, it holds the code for making proteins that are essential in building cells, tissues, and organs. DNA is found in the nucleus of a cell.
Bottleneck is an example of a genetic drift that happens when the size of a population is severely reduced.
