Answer:
Oils repel water, so it helps these animals keep their fur dry, which helps them stay warm.
Answer:
Genetic mapping for unequivocal identification of the potentially causative mutation
Explanation:
Galactosemia is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the Galactose-1-phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT) gene, which encodes an enzyme involved in the metabolism of galactose. Gene mapping is a technique widely used in genetics to identify the position of one locus a chromosome by using molecular markers to estimate genetic distances. Genetic mapping provides useful evidence in order to identify when a disease that is transmitted from parent to offspring can be associated with one or more genes and then determine which gene/s is/are responsible for this condition.
<span>Nerve cells send electrical impulses along the axon. When these impulses reach the end of the neuron, they cause a release of neurotransmitters across the synapse.
</span>The axon is part of the neuron (nerve cell that carries messages), as well as dendrite. Axons pass the nerve impulses on to other cells, while dendrite <span>receive nerve impulses from other cells. </span><span>The place where the axon of one neuron meets the </span>dendrite<span> of another is called a </span>synapse.
Answer:
D. Aa
Explanation:
Given:
Jill (mother) is heterozygous for gene A --------- i.e Jill = Aa
Jack (father) who is homozygous recessive for gene A-------- i.e Jack = aa
Now if both cross and fertilization occurs, we have:
A a
a Aa aa
a Aa aa
The offsprings are (Aa, Aa, aa, aa)
Nondsijunction is the inability of homologous chromosomes to seperate properly during cell division. Now, we were told that this fertilization undergone nondisjunction in meiosis 1. Hence, both homologous chromosome move into the same daughter cells instead of different daughter cells because separation of homologous chromosome does not occur properly.
Therefore the result of these fertilization of a normal haploid sperm with an egg that had undergone nondisjunction in meiosis yields offspring with genotype Aa of their Mother (Jill).
Answer:
Uranus
Uranus' axis is tilted, so it rotates from top to bottom.
