Answer:
A gene is a stretch of DNA that helps to control the development and function of all organs and working systems in the body.
Genes are passed from parent to offspring; the combination of these genes affects all aspects of the human body, from eye and hair color to how well the liver can process toxins.
In humans, dimples (D) are dominant over no dimples (d). Curly hair (A) is dominant over
straight hair (a). Paul, who is heterozygous for dimples and curly hair, marries Jane, who
has curly hair but does not have dimples. Jane's mother had straight hair, but her father had
curly hair. Paul and Jane had a child named Peter, who had curly hair but did not have
dimples.
Answer:
1. ddaa
2. DdAa
3. One from each parent
4. False
5. 0.25
6. 0.25
7. 0.25
8. 0.5
Explanation:
The remaining part of the question is
1. What is Jane's genotype?
2. What is Paul’s genotype?
3. Where did Jane get her gene for curly hair? From her mother or father?
4. True or False: Jane's mother was heterozygous for curly hair?
5. What fraction of Paul and Jane's children should have curly hair and dimples?
6. What fraction of their children would have straight hair and no dimples?
7. What fraction should have dimples but not curly hair?
8. What is the probability of getting any offspring with dimples
Solution
1. Genotype of Jane's mother -ddaa
2. Genotype of Paul (heterozygous for dimples and curly hair) – DdAa
3. One “a” gene from mother (whose genotype for hair was aa) and second “a”gene from father (whose genotype was Aa)
4. False. She was having straight hair
5. Offspring of Paul and Jane
DdAa (4), Ddaa (4), ddAa(4) and ddaa (4)
4 out of 16 offspring will have curly hair and dimples = 0.25
6. ddaa, 4/16 = 0.25
7. Ddaa , 4/16 = 0.25
8. Ddaa, DdAa, 8/16 = 0.5

13. which of the following traits of land plants protects the leaves and stems from drying out
Answer:
The roots absorb water when it rains and they hold it in.
using what have you learnt about the effect of concentration gradient and surface area to volume ratio, explain the adaptations of a leaf for photosynthesis
Answer:
Leaves have an increased surface area in order to increase light-harvesting and they are thin in order to increase the diffusion rate
Explanation:
Leaves have several adaptations to increase the photosynthesis rate. In the first place, leaves have a large surface area to increase light-harvesting and thus also increase photosynthetic energy conversion. Moreover, leaves are sufficiently thin to increase the gas exchange surface area, i.e., the entry of carbon dioxide (CO2) and the exit of oxygen from photosynthesis, which move by diffusion through stomata.
The period directly following the action potential is known as?

The fertilization of ovules from Plant Q by pollen from Plant R results in the production of seeds. What percent of the genes in each offspring's chloroplasts will have been inherited from plant R?
A: 0%
B: 25%
C: 50%
D: 100%
Answer:
The correct answer is - option A. 0%
Explanation:
The zygote formation or fertilization in flowering plants occurs by the fusion of pollen of one plant with the ovum of another plant of the same species normally. This process includes the exchange of an equal amount of the genetic contribution from both plants.
The egg cell of the mother is responsible for the mitochondria and chloroplast of the progeny so the percentage of chloroplast genes provided via Plant R is 0% as ovum and egg cell comes from only plant Q.
percentage of chloroplast gene inherited from R plant is a)0%
Is cloning and genetic engineering ethical?

what were the early plants called?
Explanation:
The oldest fossil evidence of seed plants is of Late Devonian age, and they appear to have evolved out of an earlier group known as the progymnosperms. These early seed plants ranged from trees to small, rambling shrubs; like most early progymnosperms, they were woody plants with fern-like foliage.
1. If an animal cell is placed into a solution whose concentration of dissolved substances is
higher than that inside the cell(osmosis). What will happen?
Answer:
Water will move out of the cell causing it to eventually shrink.
Explanation:
The tonicity of solutions determine the direction of water movement. Hypertonic solution is a solution whose concentration is higher than that of its external solution while hypotonic solution is a solution whose concentration is lower than that of its external solution. In this case, an animal cell is placed into a solution whose concentration of dissolved substances is higher than that inside the cell.
This means that the extracellular solution is HYPERTONIC to the cell's solution. Based on OSMOSIS, which is the movement of water from a region of lower solute concentration (high water conc.) to a region of higher solute concentration (low water conc.) via a semipermeable membrane, water will move out of the animal cell into the extracellular solution via the cell membrane (semipermeable membrane).
This movement of water out of the cell will eventually cause it to shrink and die.

During which of the following processes would carbon most likely be required?
A. Breaking of rocks
B. Generation of electricity
C. Making of glucose
D. Running of cars
I think its C but when I looked the question up to check my answer, someone said they put C and got it wrong. I know we take fossil fuels out of the ground and burn them to create electricity or to make our cars run. and that burning fossil fuels releases carbon dioxide back into the air. And I know that carbon dioxide, water, and light make glucose.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Answers D
Answer:
Glucose
Explanation:
During photosynthesis, plants take in carbon from the atmosphere so that they can create glucose. During cellular respiration, living things give off carbon as a waste product. This gives the carbon back into the air.

How and why does a DNA molecule replicate itself?
Answer:
DNA makes a copy of itself during cell division. The separation of the two single strands of DNA creates a 'Y' shape called a replication 'fork'. The two separated strands act as templates for making the new strands of DNA.
Explanation:
Which property of matter is useful for holding papers and photos on refrigerator doors?
Answer:
Magnetism
Explanation:
The refrigerator doors are made of metal, and we use magnets to hold papers and photos on their surfaces. Magnets attract metals such as iron, cobalt, nickel, etc. That is due to the physical property of matter called magnetism, which is related to the attraction force generated by a magnetic field.
Explain how the discoveries by Rosalind Franklin
helped Watson and Crick build an accurate
model of DNA.
Answer:
In 1951 Franklin joined the Biophysical Laboratory at King’s College, London, as a research fellow. There she applied X-ray diffraction methods to the study of DNA. When she began her research at King’s College, very little was known about the chemical makeup or structure of DNA. However, she soon discovered the density of DNA and, more importantly, established that the molecule existed in a helical conformation. Her work to make clearer X-ray patterns of DNA molecules laid the foundation for James Watson and Francis Crick to suggest in 1953 that the structure of DNA is a double-helix polymer, a spiral consisting of two DNA strands wound around each other.

Which of the following describes the mRNA molecule produced from transcription?
The mRNA molecule is made using the coding strand of DNA, which depends on the gene being
transcribed.
O The mRNA molecule is made using the coding strand of DNA and is transcribed in the parallel
direction
The mRNA molecule is complementary to its DNA template, which depends on the gene being
transcribed.
O The mRNA molecule is identical to its DNA template, which depends on the gene being transcribed.
Answer:
The mRNA molecule is complementary to its DNA template, which depends on the gene being transcribed.
Explanation:
The process of the formation of RNA from DNA is called transcription.
Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a single-stranded RNA molecule that is complementary to its DNA template as the enzyme, RNA polymerase matches the complementary bases to the original DNA strand and then initiates the process of RNA synthesis. Once the strand gets completed, the process got terminated.
Hence, the correct answer is "The mRNA molecule is complementary to its DNA template, which depends on the gene being transcribed."
