Answer:
Incomplete dominance
Co-dominance
Explanation:
Gregor Mendel discovered the principles that governs heredity, in which one of them is that an allele called DOMINANT allele, is capable of masking the expression of its variant allele called RECESSIVE allele in a heterozygous state. However, there has been genetic scenarios contrary to this his LAW OF DOMINANCE.
One of those Non-mendelian pattern of inheritance is a phenomenon called INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE, where an allele does not mask the expression of another completely, instead their combined state produces a third intermediate phenotype that is different from both parents. This is the case of the homozygous black bull mated with a homozygous white cow to produce a grey calf. The grey phenotype is an intermediate phenotype of both the black and white colours that forms due to incomplete dominance.
Another genetic scenario is called CO-DOMINANCE, where one allele is neither dominant nor recessive to the other allele, but instead both phenotypes becomes simultaneously expressed in the heterozygous offspring. In this case, the black bull and white cow were mated to form a heterozygous calf with both black and white spots.

Explanation:
<em>Non-disjunction occur as a result of lack of separation of homologous chromosomes during meiosis. </em>
As a result, the gametes (the daughter cells formed) produced end up having extra or lesser chromosomes as compared to a normal gamete.
When a gamete with extra chromosome fertilizes a normal gamete, the resulting offspring will have an extra chromosome (trisomy condition).
On the other hand, when a gamete with one less chromosome than normal fertilizes a normal gamete, the resulting offspring will have one less chromosome than normal offspring (monosomy condition).
Assuming a chromosome with Aa gene undergoes non disjunction during meiosis, the resulting gametes either contain both A and a chromosome or contain no chromosome at all.
If Aa gamete is fertilized by a normal haploid sperm (a), the resulting zygote will have the genotype Aaa.
If a gamete with no chromosome at all fertilizes a normal haploid sperm, the resulting offspring will have the genotype a.
Answer:
Ecological footprint estimates the requirements of renewable resources that a population consumes to live a particular lifestyle. Some ecologists are concerned because the result of the ecological footprint shows that the demand of the population is increasing in comparison to the supply of nature.
For example in India, the ecological footprint shows negative impact of population demand over supply of nature.
Half of an old DNA strand is matched to a new strand, this is called semi-conservatism
Answer: The correct answer is- C) vacuole.
Large central Vacuole is a specialized fluid filled organelle, present only in plant cell. It is primarily involved in providing support and shape to the plant cell by maintaining the turgor pressure ( a hydrostatic force that is produced due to the cell contents against the inner side of the cell wall). The central vacuole stores water ( that flows through osmosis) and maintains turgor pressure in a plant cell.
Turgor pressure provides mechanical support and helps in the growth and development of plant.
