Answer:
c
Explanation:
because it's causing harm to the human but the tapeworm is benefiting from it
Answer:
They use them so that they can see what type of organisms live there.
Explanation:
Answer:
1/8 (12.5%)
Explanation:
An autosomal recessive disease is an inherited disease in which an individual need to receive both defective alleles at the same gene <em>locus</em> to be expressed in the phenotype. In this case, both parents are carriers of the recessive mutant allele associated with the sickle cell anaemia trait, thereby both parents are heterozygous, ie., each parent has one copy of the normal allele 'H' and one copy of the defective mutant allele 'h' associated with this condition. In consequence, their first child has a 1/4 (25%) chance of having sickle-cell anaemia. Moreover, the chance of having a girl is 1/2 and the chance of having a boy is 1/2, thereby the final chance of having a girl sickle cell anaemia individual is 1/4 x 1/2 = 1/8 (12.5%).
- Parental cross for sickle cell anaemia trait = Hh x Hh >>
- F1 = 1/4 HH (normal); 1/2 Hh (normal); 1/4 hh (sickle cell anaemia) >>
- Sex proportion of sickle cell anaemia individuals = 1/8 female sickle cell anaemia individuals + 1/8 male sickle cell anaemia individuals (1/8 + 1/8 = 1/4)
Answer:
how are genes expressed for a particular trait?
Genes are expressed in two ways which could be either genotype or phenotype
genotype reflects the dominancy or recessives of a particular trait over another while phenotype entails the physical expression of such trait which could be height, color of skin among others
e.g
If P is purple while p is white
PP x Pp= PP, Pp, PP. Pp these are the genotype produced from the crossing of two parents which results into 2 homozygous gene and 2 heterozygous gene without any recessive gene
while the phenotype shows that all the offspring are Purple
Explanation:
The right answer is The lac operon would be transcribed constitutively.
An operator is a nucleic acid segment to which a regulatory protein that modulates downstream gene expression is bound. it can either stimulate or inhibit the production of the gene product thus controlled.
If the operator is absent, there will be no more regulation of the operon, so the transcription of the operon will not be regulated, and the synthesis will be continuous and constitutive.
