Ans.
Sex-linked genes are those genes that found on sex-chromosomes (X and Y chromosomes) and their phenotypic expression for a trait depends on the gender of the offspring.
Most of the sex-linked genes are present on X chromosomes as X chromosomes have more number of genes as they are made up of more DNA as compared to Y chromosome.
However, male individuals are more likely to exhibit the sex-linked traits. It is because most of the sex-linked traits are recessive and males have only one copy of X chromosome, while females have two copies of X chromosome. One mutated copy in male can exhibit the trait, while in females, both of the mutated copies are required to exhibit that trait.
B. Antibiotics attack only bacteria.
Answer:
Withering is a process in which a rock gets broken down into small and large fragments which are displace other location by the action of wind, water and ice. There are three types of withering: mechanical ,chemical and biological. Mechanical withering is a process which brings changes into physical structure of rocks like large rocks are converted into small rock. Chemical withering is a process which brings changes in the chemical composition of rock. This withering process can change minerals content in the rock. Biological withering is a process in which living beings uses rock for their survival like plants, animals and microbes causes disintegration of rock.
Highly withered and unwithered rock can be distinguished by following characteristics:
1. Physical structure: There will be no change in the structure of unwithered rock but structure of highly withered rock will change after the withering process.
2. Chemical composition: The withering process will remove surface and internal minerals present in rock. In unwithered rock the surface and internal mineral composition will remain unchanged but in highly withered rock the surface and internal minerals present in rock will be removed, which change the overall chemical composition of the rock.
Answer:
Each protein is made up of a unique number and order of amino acids. The protein that is created has a specific job to do or a specific tissue such as muscle tissue to create. The structure of amino acids is fairly simple. Each amino acid has an amino group at its core with a carboxyl group and a side chain attached.
