In certain bacteria, an oval shape (O) is dominant over round (o) and thick cell walls (T) are dominant over thin (t). Draw on a
seropon [69]

Answer:

Consider the heterozygous oval, thick cell walled bacteria to have the alleles OoTT and the thin cell walled bacteria to have alleles oott. Results will be 50% oval, thick walled bacteria and 50% round, thick walled bacteria. This will be the F1 progeny.

When the oval, thick walled bacteria from the F1 progeny is cross bred with round, thick walled bacteria then 25 percent of the bacteria will be heterozygous oval, thick walled. 25 percent will be heterozygous oval and heterozygous thick walled. 25 percent will be round and thick walled. 25 percent will be round and thin walled.

The isotope silicon-32 decays into phosphorus-32. Silicon-32 has a half-life of 170 years and can be used to find the age of roc
Vsevolod [243]
The correct answers are B & C. Silicon-32 is the parent isotope, which decays into phosphorus-32 (daughter isotope). The silicon-32 amount is halved every 170 years, so we can use this to determine how old the rock is. The amount of phosphorus-32 increases over time, but it is not equal to the amount of silicon-32.

In exocytosis, the one that fuses with the membrane package is the cell membrane. The membrane is transported to the cell membrane and the water molecules are released into the extracellular environment.
