Answer:

Bull = Pp

Cow A = pp

Cow B = pp

Cow C = Pp

Explanation:

In cows polled (P) is dominant over horned (p) trait.

The bull is polled so it can be PP or Pp. Cow B is horned so it must be pp. Resultant offspring from bull X Cow B is also a horned calf (pp). This calf must have received one p from the bull. So the bull's genotype is Pp.

Cow A is also a horned cow so it must be pp. When bull X Cow A, a polled calf is produced. Since the bull's genotype is Pp and Cow A's genotype is pp, this polled calf will be Pp like the bull.

Cow C is polled like the bull so it can be PP or Pp. However on crossing with the bull (Pp) a horned calf is produced (pp). This calf got one p allele from the bull and p allele from the Cow C. So Cow C's genotype must be Pp.

Hence,

Bull = Pp

Cow A = pp

Cow B = pp

Cow C = Pp

During the citric acid cycle, what happens to acetyl-CoA? It enters the citric acid cycle and gains carbon dioxide to form citri
kvv77 [185]

The correct answer is: It enters the citric acid cycle and associates with a 4-carbon molecule (OXALOACETATE), forming citric acid, and then through redox reactions regenerates the 4-carbon molecule.

The citric acid cycle is a cyclic process (part of the cellular respiration) where acetyl CoA is modified in the mitochondria to produce high-energy intermediate molecules for the oxidative phosphorilation (production of ATP).

Choose all the true statements about protein digestion and hydrolysis.
klio [65]

Answer: The true statements about protein digestion and hydrolysis are;

1. Hydrochloric acid in gastric juices cause protein denaturation.

2. In small intestine trypsin attacks peptide bonds.

3.free amino acids are absorbed by the intestinal wall.

Explanation:

Protein digestion occurs in the duodenum and stomach and it is the breakdown of proteins to amino acids by action of Enzymes like trypsin, pepsin.

Protein is digested by the hydrolysis of carbon-nitrogen bond. Mechanical digestion of protein begins in the mouth and it continues in the small intestine and stomach.

Chemical digestion starts in the stomach where by hydrochloric acid in the gastric juice denatures the protein and convert pepsinogen to pepsin enzyme which convert the protein in food to peptides. Trypsin attacks the peptide bond that involves the carboxyl group which breaks it to polypeptide. Exopepdisases and dipeptidases breaks it down to amino acids. The amino acids released by protein digestion is then absorbed by the intestinal wall

In 1998, paleoanthropologist Rick Potts published an article in The Yearbook of Physical Anthropology, a peer-reviewed journal.
Nitella [24]

This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here is the missing section:

Which would most likely be found in his paper?

A. A review of modern human anatomical structure.

B. Evidence of changing environmental conditions, with references.

C. The reasons competing hypotheses are wrong.

D. His opinion of what will happen to the survival of the human race.

The answer to this question is B. Evidence of changing environmental conditions, with references.

Explanation:

In texts such as scientific articles, the central point is expressed by the main claim or hypothesis as this is supported and explained through evidence in the articles. This means Potts article focuses on the environmental changes and how these contributed to the human species adaptability.

Due to this, it is expected the article explains the changes in environmental conditions, and the connection of these to adaptability. Moreover, because this is a scientific article all ideas should be supported with evidence collected by the author including references to other reliable sources. Thus, "evidence of changing environmental conditions, with references" is expected to be found in this article.
