On the planet Feline, there are only cats. For one particular phenotype, Myles, there are two manifestations: either the cats like jazz music (the wild type phenotype) or they do not (the mutant phenotype). Under the assumption this phenotype is determined by a single gene with two alleles, and given that a mating of two wild-type cats produces the following number of offspring: Female, wild-type: 341; Male, wild-type: 369; Female, Myles: 121; Male, Myles: 123. The mode of inheritance most consistent with these data is:________
A. Autosomal dominant.
B. Two-locus inheritance.
C. Sex-linked recessive.
D. Autosomal recessive.
E. Two-locus dominant.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. Autosomal recessive.

Explanation:

Available data:

One diallelic gene codes for the phenotype MylesOne allele expresses the wild type phenotype → like jazz musicThe other allele expresses the mutated phenotype → don´t like jazzCross: Between two wild catsF1) Female, wild-type: 341; Male, wild-type: 369; Female, Myles: 121; Male, Myles: 123    

Autosomal recessive inheritance characterizes because the mutated gene locates in one of the 22 non-sexual, somatic chromosomes. To express the phenotype, an individual must carry two copies of the mutated gene. For this reason, the recessive allele must be present in both the male/father and the female/mother.  

In the exposed example, the numbers among the progeny are 341:369:121:123. These values approximate a phenotypic ratio 3:1 for females, and for males. This ratio suggests that the cross was performed between two heterozygous individuals.

Let us name the alleles M and m, dominant and recessive respectively. The cross would be like follows

Cross:  wild-type male    x     wild-type female

Parentals)   Mm XY         x                MmXX

Gametes)  MX, MY, mX, mY       MX, MX, mX, mX

Punnett Square)     MX         MX         mX           mX

                  MX    MMXX    MMXX    MmXX     MmXX

                  mX    MmXX    MmXX    mmXX     mmXX

                  MY    MMXY    MMXY     MmXY     MmXY

                  mY    MmXY    MmXY     mmXY     mmXY

F1) Whole progeny

12/16 = 3/4 = 75% Wild-type cats → MMXX + MmXX + MMXY + MmXY4/16 = 1/4 = 25% Mutated cats → mmXX + mmXY

     Females

6/8 = 3/4 = 75% Wild-type cats → MMXX + MmXX 2/8 = 1/4 = 25% Mutated cats → mmXX

     Males

6/8 = 3/4 = 75% Wild-type cats → MMXY + MmXY2/8 = 1/4 = 25% Mutated cats → mmXY

Answers

Answer:

Cats and dogs are both mammals because they have hair, are warm-blooded, and nourish their young with milk. Dogs and cats are distinct species, incapable of producing offspring together because of the many differences in their genome.

Explanation:

i hope this was helpful!

Mammals are warm-blooded vertebrate(backbone) animal distinguished by hair or fur on their body.

Mammals give birth to younger ones.Female mammals produce milk in their mammary gland to feed the younger ones.

Examples of mammals includes, Huma being, lion, dog, tiger, cat, horse, goat, cow etc.

Since, cats and dogs are both mammals, the difference between them is the genome.

Genome is the complete genetic information (DNA or RNA) of an organism.

Cats and dogs have different genetic information.

how proteins are made​

Answers

Proteins are an important class of molecules that carry out most of the work inside cells. The building blocks of proteins are smaller organic molecules called amino acids. Most organisms, including humans, use only 20 different amino acids to assemble the vast multitude of proteins needed to build and run a cell.

To build proteins, cells use a complex assembly of molecules called a ribosome. The ribosome assembles amino acids into the proper order and links them together via peptide bonds. This process, known as translation, creates a long string of amino acids called a polypeptide chain.  

After the polypeptide chain is synthesized, it will sometimes undergo additional processing. For example, some proteins will have certain amino acids removed. Or extra molecules such as sugars or phosphates may be attached to some of the amino acids in a protein.

Answer:

proteins are made of large numbers of amino acids joined end to end. The chains fold up to form 3d molecules with complex shapes - you could think of it as origami with very long and thin piece of paper

She is puzzled that the clone does not have an effect, even though she knows, based on available mutants, that loss of the function of this gene causes worms to die as larvae. You look at the sequence of the DNA she used to make the feeding clone and discover that it corresponds to an intron in the gene. What would you say to the student to explain why her experiment did not succeed

Answers

Hello. Your question is incomplete, which makes it difficult to answer, but we can consider that the girl's experiment went wrong because she used a DNA sequence that only corresponds to introns that are not capable of encoding amino acids. Therefore, you could explain to the girl that her experiment did not work, because the introns do not encode amino acids, which prevents the clones from developing proteins that are essential for their survival, since the amino acids are the protein-building molecules .

Introns are important for the control of gene expression, but they cannot encode any amino acid, without which the organism cannot survive.

Cilia are involved in the transfer The genetic information from one bacterial cell to another What then is the thematic relationship between her act and the painting on the wall behind her?The young woman standing before a table in a corner of a room gazes toward a balance held gently in her right hand. As though waiting for the delicate modulations of the balance to come to rest, she stands transfixed in a moment of equilibrium. She is dressed in a blue morning jacket bordered with white fur; seen through the parting of her jacket are vivid stripes of yellow and orange, perhaps ribbons or part of her bodice. Her white cap falls loosely to either side of her neck, framing her pensive yet serene face. Diffused sunlight, entering through an open window before her, helps illuminate the scene. The light, warmed by the orange curtain before the window, flows across the gray wall and catches the fingers of her right hand and the balance before resting on her upper figure. Behind the woman looms a painting of the Last Judgment * which acts as a compositional and iconographic foil to the scene before it. The Last Judgment, its proportions echoing those of the overall painting, occupies the entire upper right quadrant of the composition. Its rectangular shape establishes a quiet and stable framework against which Vermeer juxtaposes the figure of the woman. The woman's white cap and blue morning jacket contrast with the dark painting. Her figure is aligned with the central axis of the Last Judgment. Her head lies at the middle of its composition, directly beneath the oval mandorla of the Christ in majesty. Her right hand coincides with the lower corner of the frame, which happens also to be the vanishing point of the perspective system. Her head and the central gesture of her hand are thus visually locked in space, and a seeming moment of quiet contemplation becomes endowed with permanence and symbolic associations. The visual juxtaposition of the woman and the Last Judgment is reinforced by thematic parallels: to judge is to weigh. Christ, his arms and hands raised, sits in majesty on the day of judgment. His gesture, with both arms raised, mirrors the opposing direction of the woman's balance. His judgments are eternal; hers are temporal. Nevertheless, the woman's pensive response to the balance she holds suggests that her act of judgment, although different in consequence, is as conscientiously considered as that of the Christ behind her. The more experiments that are performed, the closer the experimental probability gets to the theoretical probability: true or false?
