Gestational diabetes occurs when a pregnant woman has high levels of blood sugar. Cells in the pancreas usually keep blood sugar levels normal, but hormones produced during pregnancy deactivate the cells. After pregnancy, hormone levels return to normal, and so do the pancreas cells. Is this an example of DNA or the environment controlling gene expression? Explain your answer
Answer:
environment controlling gene expression
Explanation:
Gestational diabetes generally occurs in pregnant women. The sugar level in the bloodstream becomes little high than the normal range during pregnancy. But the glucose level returns to normal after child birth.
The pancreas secrets insulin which helps to lower the blood sugar level in the body. But during pregnancy, the placenta releases some of the hormones which dilutes the effect of insulin. This is known as insulin resistance. So now the pancreas secretes more of insulin to overcome this insulin resistance for the body. Now if a woman during pregnancy does secrete more insulin, the glucose level increases in the body and the woman develops gestational diabetes.
Gestational diabetes greatly depends upon obesity and the ethnicity of the women, but a definite genetic link has not been identified.
This it is a result of the environment control gene expression.

Define what is meant by a "dominant" gene, and a "recessive" gene
Answer:
Dominant is relating to or denoting heritable characteristics which are controlled by genes that are expressed in offspring even when inherited from only one parent. Recessive is relating to or denoting heritable characteristics controlled by genes that are expressed in offspring only when inherited from both parents, i.e., when not masked by a dominant characteristic inherited from one parent
Explanation:
An apple farmer notices that two of his trees produce particularly sweet apples. The farmer thinks that these sweeter apples would sell very well andcould make him a lot of money. He uses a Q-tip to pollinate the flowers of the sweet apple tree with pollen from the other sweet apple tree's flowers. He then takes the seeds from the fruit that they produce and grows a new field of trees from them. Almost all of these new trees make very sweet apples like the first two trees did.
Answer:
It is a right method for making a variety.
Explanation:
This is the right method for making sweet apples variety because in apple, cross pollination occurs and for making a new variety self pollination is the best way to prevent impurities in making a new variety. Due to self pollination, the farmer gain the sweet apple variety which help them to make more money by selling these sweet apple because of its demand.

Since Yellow is dominant over green then almost all of the children will have yellow faces. The punnet square below will show what the offspring will have but my guess is
50% will have yellow faces
50% will have both yellow and green
1% will have a green face
But since Yellow is dominant over green the 50% of both colors will mostly show a yellow dominant.

By the ways, this is not a quiz or a test. It is a benchmark review.
Answer:
C. It will decrease the percentages of almond and apple crops because lesser numbers of honey bees are available for pollination.
Explanation:
The decrease in honey bees population will affect the ecosystem by decreasing the percentages of almond and apple crops which will lead to lesser numbers of honey bees available for pollination. Almonds and apple crops rely on honey bee colonies for pollination. So, a decrease in the population of honey bees will have an adverse effect on the availability of the crops and food supply. For most variety of almonds, they do not wind pollinate but require cross-pollination in order to produce nut. Other crops that rely on honey bees are watermelon, cucumbers and cherries.
For her science fair project, your little sister replicated one of Mendel's experiments. From a P0 pea plant with purple flowers and a pea plant with white flowers, she got 1 purple F1 hybrid (she had forgotten to water, so just one survived). From this self-fertilized F1 she got 8 F2 offspring. 7 were purple and 1 was white, for a 7:1 ratio. Did your little sister just disprove Mendel's laws
Answer: No, the 7:1 ratio is close to the expected 6:2 ratio even with the limited sample size.
Explanation:
Let the alleles be P (purple) and W (white).
The possible crosses are
PP x WW, PP x PW, PW x WW, PW x PW
the F1 is PP or PW
one F2 is white so the F1 must be PW and
the F2 are PP, WW, PW and
the expected 8 progeny are 2PP, 2WW, 4PW
Because 7/8 are purple, we can infer that P is dominant and W recessive, so the expectation is 6 purple, 2 white
The observed ratio is similar to the expected ratio, so we can’t say that this result disproves Mendel, particularly with a small sample.
7:1 is close to 6:2, even if the sample is smaller. We cannot invalidate Mendel with such a small sample size because the observed ratio was not statistically different from the anticipated ratio.
What is Mendelian Ratio?The term "Mendelian inheritance" refers to specific patterns that can be observed in the way characteristics are passed down from parents to children. In the 19th century, the Austrian monk Gregor Mendel conducted thousands of tests with pea plants in order to develop these broad patterns. He did this in order to determine the genetic makeup of pea plants.
The frequency with which diverse phenotypes are produced as a result of any cross incorporating Mendelian traits. in particular, the three to one ratio that is displayed by the second generation of descendants from parents who are different from one another in regard to a single character.

6.They are moving toward each other
7. The Nazca Plate is bounded on the west by the Pacific Plate and to the south by the Antarctic Plate through the East Pacific Rise
8.Convection currents in the mantle drive plate tectonics. Convection is the reason for ocean currents. Ocean currents result from two processes - the action of wind on the surface of the water, and from variation in water temperature that causes movement.
Both the mantle and ocean experience the heat transfer due to bulk movement of molecules within fluids such as gases and liquids, including molten rock; this is called, again, convection.

Answer:c
Explanation:because cosin of b is c
(a cosc, b sinC) pairs represents the vertex A in this diagram. Hence option D is correct.
What is Vertex ?In geometry, a vertex (in plural form: vertices or vertexes) is a point where two or more curves, lines, or edges meet. As a consequence of this definition, the point where two lines meet to form an angle and the corners of polygons and polyhedral are vertices.
The vertex of an angle is the point where two rays begin or meet, where two line segments join or meet, where two lines intersect (cross), or any appropriate combination of rays, segments, and lines that result in two straight sides meeting at one place.
In a polygon, a vertex is called "convex" if the internal angle of the polygon is less than π radians otherwise, it is called concave.
Hence option D is correct.

When the water availability of a plant's environment decreases, the plant can respond by closing its stomata. This reduces the amount of water that the plant loses through its leaves due to transpiration. Closing the stomata also reduces the amount of carbon dioxide that the plant can take in through its leaves, which will most likely result in A. a decreased rate of photosynthesis. B. no change in the cellular processes of the plant. C. an increased rate of photosynthesis. D. an increased rate of cellular respiration.
Answer:
A. a decreased rate of photosynthesis.
Explanation:
Stomata is a structure in the leaves of higher plants, which they use majorly for the purpose of gas exchange. However, the process whereby plant loses water called transpiration also occurs via the stomata. In a situation whereby the availability of water in a plant's environment is low, the plant responds by closing its stomata in order to conserve water (reduce the amount of water that the plant loses through its leaves due to transpiration).
Closing the stomata by plants means not allowing ample carbon dioxide (CO2), which is needed for the process of photosynthesis to occur, to enter the plant. This will most likely result in a DECREASED RATE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS.
