Cancer is a disease caused by mutations. Yet in most instances, if a parent tragically dies from cancer, this does not put their child at a greater risk than a person who parents don't develop cancer. How can cancer be caused by mutations and ot be heritable? a. most cancers arise from mutation in germ line cells
b. mutations that cause cancer occur on specific cells, such as sex cells
c. mutations caused by environmental agents, such as tobacco smoke, occur in somatic cells
d. mutations that cause cancer are specific and cannot be passed on regardless of the type of cell they occur in

Which of the following words best matches this definition: the process in which the best adapted organisms survive and pass on their traits, while those that are not well adapted do not survive to pass on their traits. question 3 options: acquired selection natural selection artificial selection organic selection

This problem has been solved! see the answeryou are investigating two traits in fruit flies controlled by one gene each. the b gene controls for body color (black or brown), while the r gene controls for body sculpture (rugose or smooth). after crossing rugose black flies with smooth brown flies, you obtain an f1 generation of 100% smooth black flies. what are the dominant alleles? (1 pt)what are the genotypes of the two parent flies to perform a dihybrid test cross? (1 pt)after running a dihybrid test cross, you find 1000 offspring with the following phenotypes: , rugose406black, smooth86brown, rugose94brown, smooth4141000fill in the expected column with the expected number of offspring in each class of phenotypes. (1 pt)what phenotype classes represent the recombinant offspring? (1 pt each)calculate the relative genetic distance between the body color gene and the body sculpting gene (show your work). (1 pt).
