Gametes, which are sex cells, carry the alleles. Why must a gamete carry one allele (represented by a letter) from each gene? meaning, why can't a gamete carry an "hh" instead of an "hs" or an "Hh" instead of a "HS?''

A gamete carries one allele (represented by a letter) from each gene - it prevents from causing gene overload and prevents from leading to defective offspring.

Gamete or reproductive cell containing only one set of dissimilar chromosomes, or half the genetic material necessary to form a complete organism

Each parent passes an allele at random to gamete that is haploid and fuses to pass alleles to their offspring resulting in a diploid organism.According to the law of independent assortment and segregation copies of genes separate or segregate so that each gamete receives only one allele.if it gets more than one or carried multiples alleles from the same gene, the offspring would be defective because it would have a "gene overload"

Thus, A gamete carries one allele (represented by a letter) from each gene - it prevents from causing gene overload and prevents from leading to defective offspring.

Explanation:

This is because a gamete will go fuse with another gamete and the sets of alleles from both will combine to form the required diploidy required for growth to a mature organism. If the gametes were diploid, then when two gametes fuse, the resulting zygote would be tetraploidy. Unless this is the natural ploidy for the organism – like in some plants – then the resulting zygote would not develop or the resulting mature organism would have abnormalities.

The proton has a positive charge while the neutron has no charge they both make up the nucleus of the atom while the elections have a negative charge and surround the nucleus of the atom. the protons and electrons are used to calculate the atom's mass whereas the neutrons don't affect the mass

In german cockroaches, curved wing (cv) is recessive to normal wing (cv+). bill, who is raising cockroaches in his dorm room, finds that the frequency of the gene for curved wings in his cockroach population is 0.6. in his friend joe’s apartment, the frequency of the gene for curved wings is 0.2. one day joe visits bill in his dorm room, and several cockroaches jump out of joe’s hair and join the population in bill’s room. bill estimates that, now, 10% of the cockroaches in his dorm room are individual roaches that jumped out of joe’s hair. what is the new frequency of curved wings among cockroaches in bill’s room? 0.69 0.4 0.5 0.31 0.20

For the strategies below, decide whether they are best described as demand-side solutions or supply-side solutions to meeting human needs for fresh water. remember that a demand-side solution reduces demand for fresh water, whereas a supply-side solution increases the supply of fresh water. (a) damming a river to create a reservoir (b) desalinating seawater (c) a nation invading a neighboring country to access their rivers (d) raising water prices for consumers and businesses (e) providing tax breaks for companies that use less water (f) replacing inefficient irrigation with more-efficient drip irrigation to grow crops (g) requiring low-flow showerheads in all new homes
