Ans.:
6. The products of mitosis are mostly genetically identical. The products of meiosis are not a. Explain how meiosis can generate genetic diversity. What specific processes present in meiosis but not mitosis produce cells with different combinations of alleles?
All humans are ~99.9% genetically identical, yet we do not appear identical. Even siblings from the same mother and father can look drastically different. What explains these differences? Use these vocab words in your answer: gene expression, homologous chromosomes, law of segregation, recombination, independent assortment, allele(s), mutations.

A bluebonnet (type of wild flower) population along a roadside is genetically variable. A botanist counts the seeds produced by 100 plants and calculates a variance of 20. Selecting one of these plants, the botanist cultivates a genetically identical population of bluebonnets in a greenhouse. The botanist transplants these genetically identical bluebonnets back to the roadside where the original plants were found. The next year, when the seeds are counted for these genetically identical plants, the variance is 3. What...
14. Describe how the synthesis of nucleotides is regulated. 14. Describe how the synthesis of nucleotides is regulated.
1. Genetically identical plants are planted in a garden. Ones on the east edge of the garden produce blue flowers; the others produce pink flowers. How can this best be explained? environmental factors influence flower color the alleles are codominant the allele for blue flowers is dominant a mutation must have occurred multiple alleles affect flower color 2. In a species of mammal, some individuals are true-breeding for red hair. Others are true-breeding for brown hair. A true-breeding red individual...
Question 33 2.3 pts The daughter cells that result from mitosis are genetically identical have half as many chromosomes as the parent cell. o have twice as many chromosomes as the parent cell. e have only one member of each homologous pair o have twice as many sister chromatids as the parent cell.
5. Discuss the current and potential uses of genetically modified foods, along with concerns related to their safety. 6. Explain how food preservation and processing methods affect food availability. 7. Describe the role of food additives in the food supply, along with how they are regulated. 8. List the major causes of foodborne and waterborne illnesses in the U.S. and describe how consumers can reduce the risk of these illnesses.

An individual with two different versions of a gene is genetically _____________. In traits with a simple pattern of inheritance, only the trait conferred by the ____________ form of the gene will be visible. The other form of the gene is ____________ : it confers a trait that is only visible when the individual is genetically ____________ , or has two identical copies of the gene.
