Answer:
I'm almost certain that it's mucus. (been a hot sec since I took a bio or anatomy class)
Explanation:
Here's a quote: "The colon secretes mucus to bind and lubricate the food waste to help it pass through smoothly as it is dehydrated." -the Cleveland Clinic
Answer:
abiotic
Explanation:
abiotic - nonliving components of an ecosystem that can affect the living organisms.
Temperature is a nonliving component and it affects the organisms that live within a certain environment.
Therefore the answer is Abiotic
Reasons its not the other answers:
Biotic factors must be living things
Temperature is not a living thing therefore Biotic cannot be the answer
Same with living, temperature is not living therefore the answer cannot be living.
Temperature plays a huge role in an ecosystem therefore it is considered an important component and the answer cannot be unimportant.
A) Yes, Jan should undergo genetic sequencing.
BRCA1/BRCA2 are the causes of 20-25% of all hereditary breast cancers, so if Jan's mother and sister both have breast cancer, then the odds are that she has BRCA1 as well.
B)
Pros: If she does have an abnormal BRCA1 gene, she can take steps to lower her risk of breast cancer.
Cons: The tests can incite discrimination towards her in the workplace, and having it known she has a risk for breast cancer can severely increase the cost of insurance.
C) Genetic sequencing could affect the frequency of genetic diseases because the test could point out --- I can't finish because I have to go. I'm so sorry, reask the url of this question and ask someone to finish. Have a nice day!
Answer: For three traits inherited in a dominant/recessive pattern, the probability of an offspring in a trihybrid cross between parents heterozygous for all three traits to be recessive at exactly two of the three loci is 23/64.
Explanation: Let A, B and C represent the dominant alleles and a, b and c represent the recessive alleles. The genotype of each of the parent will be AaBbCc since it has been said to be heterozygous for all the three traits. There are eight (8) possible different types of gametes from each of the genotype. This can be calculated using 2^n where n is the number of heterozygous loci.
The number of heterozygous loci in the genotype AaBbCc is three (3). 2^3 = 8. The gametes are;
ABC
ABc
AbC
Abc
aBC
aBc
abC and
abc.
Therefore, sixty-four possible offsprings are expected from the cross AaBbCc x AaBbCc.
Out of these offsprings, twenty-three (23) are expected to be heterozygous at two loci as boldly shown in the attached image.
