One of the main functions lipids do is storing energy. If a person eats excessive amount of food, lipids help store the energy in the form of fat molecules in the body to use later.

Hope this helps!

Skin color in a certain species of fish is inherited via a single gene with four different alleles.
tino4ka555 [31]
The answer is D) 1/2.

If each allele confers a unit of color darkness, then only genotypes S2S3 and S1S4 will have 5 units of color darkness because in genotype S2S3 S2 will have 2 units, and S3 will have 3 units, which is 5 units in total. The similar math is for <span>genotypes S1S4.
</span>
Now, let's cross S1S3 and S2S4:
Parents:          S1S3      x     S2S4
Offspring:  S1S2    S1S4     S2S3     S3S4

The offspring with genotype S1S2 will have 3 units of color darkness. The offspring with genotype S1S4 will have 5 units, as well as the offspring with genotype S2S3. The <span>offspring with genotype S3S4 will have 7 units.
It can be assumed that only 2 genotypes out of 4 will have 5 units:
2/4 = 1/2.</span>

Cinnabar colored eyes (cn) and reduced bristles (rd) are autosomal recessive genes and lobe shaped eyes (L) is an autosomal domi
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

The correct genotypic notation for a wild type with phenotypic characteristics: red eyes, long bristle and round eyes will be any of CNRDll, CnRdl, CnRDl or CNRdl if c, n, r and d are capable of independent assortment and CNRDl if they cannot.

Explanation:

The eye color and bristle size is coordinated by either recessive cn and dominant CN or Cn genes. The wild type in questions has red color eyes, which is a dominant trait coordinated by CN or Cn if c and n can undergo assortment independently or just CN if they cannot. The second characteristics of the wild type is long bristle. We were told that reduced bristle is coordinated by recessive rd Gene. Then the long bristle in our specimen wild type will have dominant genotypic notification of RD or Rd, depending if r and d can undergo assortment independently. The last trait is a round eyes, which is a recessive trait controlled by recessive allele l. Therefore, the combined characteristics of red eye color, long bristle and round eyes shape of the wild type will be CNRDl or any of CNRDll, CnRdl, CnRDl CNRdl depending on the segregation pattern of c, n, r and d.
