Consider the following two statements about DNA melting temperature:

Biology
1 answer:
Scilla [17]2 years ago
6 0

Given what we know, we can confirm that statement 1 is false, while statement 2 is in fact true. Option D is correct.

<h3>Why is statement 1 false and 2 is true?</h3>

Statement 1 states that the melting point of DNA is determined by the denaturalization of 50% of the double helices in the sample. This is not the case, since the DNA melting point is when 50% of the sample becomes single-standard DNA. Statement 2 is true in that a higher concentration of GC base pairs leads to a higher melting point for DNA.

Therefore, we can confirm that statement 1 is false, while statement 2 is in fact true. Option D is correct.

For the following characteristic, indicate M for monocot and E for eudicot. Vascular bundles neatly and uniformly arranged aroun
nignag [31]

Answer:

M: Eudicot

Explanation:

In the dicot stem, the vascular bundles are arranged in a ring, with pith concentrated at the core of the stem, rather than being scattered throughout the plant interior. In each vascular bundle, the xylem and phloem are separated by a substance called vascular cambium

The main difference between stems of both the plants is due to the arrangement of the vascular bundle. In monocots stem, the vascular bundles are scattered across the stem without any definite arrangement. On the other hand, in dicots stem, the vascular bundles are arranged in the form of one or two broken rings, following that they have a definite shape.

A widows Peak is dominant over straight hairline the genotypes of The Offspring are WW, Ww, ww and ww. What are the phenotypes o
anastassius [24]

Phenotypes are the physical characteristics that result from the genotype, which is the genetic makeup of the organism. In this case, either straight hairline or Widow's peak will be the phenotype, as they are the physical characteristics being discussed.

The questions states that a Widow's peak is dominant over straight hairline. So we are going to assume that the Widow's peak allele is W (dominant), and the straight hairline allele is w (recessive).

A dominant allele will mask the presence of a recessive allele unless both of the alleles are both recessive (both ww).

So for the WW genotype, we are going to see the dominant phenotype: Widow's peak.

For the Ww genotype, we are also going to see the dominant phenotype since the dominant allele is going to mask the presence of the recessive allele, so we are going to see: Widow's peak.

Lastly, for the ww genotype, we are going to now see the recessive phenotype, since both alleles are recessive: straight hairline. Note that their are two of these type of offspring as stated in the question.
