Let’s suppose a sheep that provided the oocyte for reproductive cloning was homozygous for a gene that causes a small head. This

gene follows a maternal effect pattern of inheritance. The oocyte had its nucleus removed and then was fused with a mammary cell that was homozygous for the nonmutant allele, which results in a normal-sized head. Would you expect the resultant lamb to have a small or normal-sized head? Explain your choice.

Since the cell follows a maternal inheritance of gene, it would have a small head because of the presence genes in the mitochondria.

How does the structure of a distinctive layer that is used as a marker determine it's function?​
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Keratin has two main functions: to adhere cells to each other and to form a protective layer on the outside of the skin. In epithelial cells, keratin proteins inside the cell attach to proteins called desmosomes on the surface. The desmosomes act as anchors, holding the cells together.
