Complete question:
A female is born with attached earlobes, which is a recessive phenotype. Which of the following statements about her parents must be true?
a. neither has the codominant allele.
b. Her father has an inactivated allele.
c. Both parents have the recessive allele.
d. Her mother carries the dominant allele.
Answer:
c. Both parents have the recessive allele.
Explanation:
A recessive trait is expressed in homozygous recessive genotypes only. If a female expresses the attached earlobe phenotype, she should be homozygous for the allele since the attached earlobe is a recessive trait. If allele "a" gives attached earlobe phenotype in homozygous genotype, the genotype of the female would be "aa". This means that the female has got one copy of the allele "a" from her either parents. Therefore, both her parents should have at least one copy of the recessive allele "a".
DNA and RNA each contain four nitrogenous bases. They have 5 not 4.
For question 1:
Look at the graph. In the beginning we start out with a feed of 75% wheat and 25% corn. The weight of the pig is 40. Look at the rest of the graph. Each time they lessen the amount of wheat the pigs eat and add more corn, they get heavier. By the end, the pigs are fed a blend of 25% wheat and 75% corn and they weigh 61 pounds. The answer would be C.
Answer: What is the defining characteristic of eukaryotic cells? Put these in your own words.
Eukaryotic cells are defined by the presence of a nucleus containing the DNA genome and bound by a nuclear membrane (or nuclear envelope) composed of two lipid bilayers that regulate transport of materials into and out of the nucleus through nuclear pores.
What types of organisms have eukaryotic cells?
There is a wide range of eukaryotic organisms, including all animals, plants, fungi, and protists, as well as most algae. Eukaryotes may be either single-celled or multicellular.
