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.
Answer: <u>Unwind
</u>
Explanation: Transcription is a process where a DNA strand is used to make a copy of mRNA. A complementary mRNA strand is made from the DNA strand. This mRNA is then later used to make proteins. In this process the junk information, present in DNA in form of introns is also spliced.
DNA is a double stranded structure, which is present in helical structure and both the strands are twisted together. In order to make the mRNA copy with the help of the enzyme RNA polymerase, DNA must open up. Then only RNA polymerase will be able to access the nucleotides of DNA.
Explanation:
Winds are caused by low and high pressure zones, mainly due to temperature differences of atmospheric air in different regions. Air moves from high to low-pressure zones causing winds.
Local winds, as the name suggests, are winds due to regional temperature differences. An example is sea breeze caused by temperature differences over land and sea in the region.
Global winds, on the other hand, are caused by large pressure systems across the planet. These are mainly caused by differences in how the sunlight ‘hits’ the planet at different latitudes – due to earth’s spherical nature- causing differential heating of the earth. These winds travel great distances causing trade winds.
Type of neuron that receives messages from the environment is a sensory neuron ie it receives messages from the 5 senses which are used by man to investigate the environment.
Answer:
Answer is D
Explanation: Experiments in food industry have demonstrated that <u><em>Clostridium botulinum</em></u> spores are highly resistant to radiation, so then <em><u>Clostridium botilinum</u></em> in canned food,must be controlled by high temperatures (around 120 Celsius degrees)or acid pH (lower than 4,7) in canned food.
