Summary Introduction
To explain: The perpetuation of parental traits and
Theme introduction:
The transmission of traits to the next generation is known as heredity and the heritable information is in the form of DNA. The offsprings resemble their parents but are somewhat different in their genetic makeup which explains the genetic variation.

In reference to the attached image, can you create a model that shows how it is possible that the twins ended up with such different traits yet have the same parents? Keeping in mind that the twins are a set of fraternal twins.

- Explain in 7-8 sentencesarrow_forwardIn C. elegans there are two sexes: hermaphrodite and male. Sex is determined by the ratio of X chromosomes to haploid sets of autosomes (X/A). An X/A ratio of 1.0 produces a hermaphrodite (XX), and an X/A ratio of 0.5 results in a male (XO). In the 1970s, Jonathan Hodgkin and Sydney Brenner carried out genetic screens to identify mutations in three genes that result in either XX males (tra-1, tra-2) or XO hermaphrodites (her-1). Double-mutant strains were constructed to assess for epistatic interactions between the genes (see table). Propose a genetic model of how the her and tra genes control sex determination.arrow_forwardHelparrow_forward

Select all that apply. Reduction division occurs in meiosis only. Mitosis produces four daughter cells and meiosis only produces two. Gametogensis occurs in mitosis only. Meiosis produces four daughter cells and mitosis only produces two. Mitosis produces cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell whereas meiosis produces cells that only have half the genetic material of the parents. Both Mitosis and meiosis produce cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell.arrow_forward
