2. in dragons, a gene on chromosome 1 codes for wing color and a gene on chromosome 2 codes for body color. draw out the stages of meiosis for these two chromosomes from a dragon that is heterozygous for both traits. define your alleles. what are all the possible allele combinations of the gametes produced?

Which statements correspond to cellular respiration? co2 diffuses passively into the cell. co2 diffuses passively out of the cell. co2 must be pumped out of the cell. o2 diffuses passively when produced inside the cell. o2 diffuses passively when converted to co2. o2 is pumped in and forces co2 out.

Bisphenol a (often called bpa) is a chemical found in products that people use every day, from water bottles to food containers to children's toys. unfortunately, bpa leaches out of its many products and makes its way into our bodies. what are the health effects of bpa exposure? ongoing research is finding that elevated exposure to bpa can affect a wide variety of developmental and physiological processes, but one of the first studies of bpa's health effects came about because of a simple mistake in the lab. at a laboratory at case western reserve university in 1998, geneticist patricia hunt was making a routine check of her female lab mice. as she extracted and examined developing eggs from the ovaries, she began to wonder what had gone wrong. she noticed that many of the eggs showed problems with their chromosomes, and some had irregular amounts of genetic material, which can lead to miscarriages and birth defects in mammals. she learned that a lab assistant had mistakenly washed the plastic mouse cages and water bottles with a harsh soap, releasing bpa from the plastic. knowing that bpa is an endocrine disruptor, a chemical that can enter organisms and mimic hormones, hunt set out to discover whether it had adversely affected her mice.
