Shell color in turtles is inherited via one gene (with two possible alleles). Homozygous dominant individuals have dark green sh

ells. Homozygous recessive individuals have light yellow shells. Heterozygotes have light green shells that are an intermediate color between both homozygotes. This is an example of:

Answer:

Genetic codiminance.

Explanation:

When there is a dominance in a pair of alleles, the heterozygotes will express the phenotype dictated by the dominant gene.

In codominance, neither gene (allele) is dominant or recessive, so the phenotypes of both alleles will express, neither allele can mask the expression of the other allele.  So, the phenotype will be a mixture of  both phenotypes, in this case, an intermediary color.

In response to seasonal changes in temperature, many organisms must alter the composition of their plasma membranes to maintain
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

C. a decrease in phospholipid fatty acid side chain length and a decrease in side chain saturation

Explanation:

Temperature is a factor that has a huge impact on cell membrane structure, more precisely its fluidity. So, for example, if temperature increases, the cell membrane becomes more fluid because the fatty acid tails of the phospholipids become less rigid.

Which enzymes in the citric acid cycle catalyze oxidative decarboxylation reactions?
dlinn [17]

In the citric acid cycle (also known as Kreb’s Cycle), the enzyme that catalyzes oxidative decarboxylation reactions is α-Ketoglutarate dehydrogenase. The oxidative decarboxylation reaction is the irreversible stage of the citric acid cycle; it generates NADH (equivalent of 2.5 ATP), and regenerates the 4C chain (CoA is excluded).

A student measures the length of a glass rod five times and records the data as: a. 23.487 cm b. 23.493 cm c. 23.516 cm d. 23.50
MAVERICK [17]
Percent error is calculated by the expression:

%error = |actual value - observed value| / actual value x 100

We calculate the error of the values as follows:

<span>a. 23.487 cm
% error = |</span><span>23.490  - 23.487| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.013%
</span><span>
b. 23.493 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.493| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.013%
<span>
c. 23.516 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.516| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.11%<span>

d. 23.501 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.501| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.05%<span>

e. 23.477 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.477| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.055%

Which of the following statements is true of ribosomes?
Delvig [45]

Answer: A) They are the site of protein synthesis.

Explanation:

Ribosomes are small round organelles attached to the endoplasmic reticulum in cells, and serve as site of protein synthesis. This is possible because the transfer RNA assembles amino acids to form polypeptide chains right in the ribosomes.

Thus, ribosomes are site of protein synthesis
