A pea plant is heterozygous (Aa) for seed color and heterozygous (Bb) for seed shape. According to Mendel's principle of independent assortment: (Select all that apply.) A) each gamete will contain either a seed-color allele or a seed-shape allele, but not both. B) a gamete that contains dominant allele for seed color must also contain the dominant allele for seed shape. C) a gamete that contains dominant allele for seed color must also contain the recessive allele for seed shape. D) a g...

What is homeostasis? The maintenance of a constant internal environment. What is a stimulus? A change in your environment than requires a response. e.g Light, sound, touch, pressure, pain, chemical or temperature. What do the receptors do? Detect the stimulus or change in environment. What happens after the receptors? Receptors send messages to the CNS via the sensory neurone. What makes up the central nervous system? The brain or spinal cord What is an effector? Muscles or glands tha...

Transcription - DNA to make RNA; the strand of DNA transcribes the RNA with A & U and C &G together; when DNA is transcribed (in the nucleus), the result is an RNA molecule; genetic information is transferred from DNA to RNA; DNA together then RNA polymerase comes in and separates the double helix and the RNA is made; initiation--> elongation--> termination DNA replication - copying mechanism bringing appropriate nucleotide to daughter DNA molecule; strands meeting int he middle; maki...
