Which of the following phrases best describes the function of meiosis?
Group of answer choices

produces genetically unique diploid cells

produces genetically identical haploid cells

produces genetically unique haploid cells

produces genetically identical diploid cells

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: C.) Produces genetically unique haploid cells

Explanation: Meiosis will produce genetically unique cells because they are meant to pass onto offspring, and they are haploid because there are half the number of chromosomes in them. The organism will receive 2 sets, one from each parent, so that is why each parent who's cells undergo meiosis have to produce haploid cells.

A tall pea plant with red flowers has the genotype TtRr. This plant is crossed with another tall pea plant with white flowers, having the genotype Ttrr. What is the probability of getting dwarf plants with red flowers in the F1 progeny

Answers

Answer:

1/8 or 12.5%

Explanation:

This question involves two genes coding for height and flower color in pea plant. The alleles for tallness (T) and red flowers (R) are dominant over the alleles of short (t) and white flowers (r).

According to this question, a tall pea plant with red flowers (TtRr) is crossed with another tall pea plant with white flowers (Ttrr). The following gametes is produced by each parent:

TtRr - TR, Tr, tR and tr

Ttrr - Tr, Tr, tr and TR

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following proportion of F1 offsprings will be produced as follows:

Tall, Red (T_R_) = 6

Tall, white (T_rr) = 6

Dwarf, red (ttR_) = 2

Dwarf, white (ttrr) = 2

The probability of getting dwarf plants with red flowers in the F1 progeny is 1/8 or 12.5%.

Answer:

12.5

How is the proportion of hydrogen to helium in the Sun's core changing over time?

Answers

Answer: The percentage of the helium will increase with the decrease in the percentage of the hydrogen.

Explanation:

The conversion of the hydrogen into helium occurs by the nuclear fusion of the hydrogen atoms. This process reduces the hydrogen density and reduces the energy production inside the core region. Typically, in the core region of the hydrogen is converted into the helium by nuclear fusion. Four hydrogen atoms are collectively fuse to form one atom of helium. This process involves the production of heat energy.

Lionfish are native to the tropical waters of the Indo-Pacific. What conclusions can be made about the impact of climate change on the range of lionfish and, therefore, on biodiversity?

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - Climate change has restricted the habitat of lionfish. It has become an endangered species, reducing biodiversity.

Explanation:

As we know it is native to the tropical waters of the Indo-Pacific region. The change in the climate will increase the temperature of the water and this will lead to the restriction of habitat which lead to the reduction in the population of the fishes. As they live in the tropical climate they are habitual of warmer water and can not survive the climate change.

Explain how DNA results in the expression of a gene using the following words: DNA, mRNA, tRNA, gene, transcription, and translation

Answers

Explanation:

in order for a gene to even be transcribed, it must be "turned on" or "expressed" meaning the nucleotides have moved away from each other. after it's expressed, the gene will unwrap and continue on with transcription, and make mRNA copy of a DNA strand. once RNA is made it will leave nucleus and enter cytoplasm to find a ribosome. once it attaches to ribosome, translation begins, and a tRNA will bind to anti-codon, and the building of a polypeptide/protein will begin.

Answer: see below

Explanation:

So, kinetic energy means an object is already in motion. Potential energy, means an object has the potential to transfer energy but is idle. Mechanical energy is something like a wheel turning. That is also correlated with kinetic energy. Which in turn, means when a wheel rotates, the object is in motion. Therefore transferring energy.
