Knockout mice have been genetically altered to knock out specific genes. how are these mice most often used in research?
a. to examine defects in dna structure in those regions that have been altered
b. to determine the role of proteins coded for by those genes that are knocked out
c. to study dna replication in the defective genes (those that have been altered)
d. to study the effect of radiation on dna

In eukaryotes, genetic information is passed to the next generation by processes that include mitosis or meiosis. which of the explanations identifies the correct process and supports the claim that heritable information is passed from one generation to another? a. mitosis, followed by cytokinesis, produces daughter cells that are genetically different from the parent cell, thus insuring variation within the population. b. during mitosis, dna replication occurs twice within the cell cycle to insure a full set of chromosomes within each of the daughter cells produced. c. in asexual reproduction, a single individual is the sole parent and passes copies of its genes to its offspring without the fusion of gametes. d. single-celled organisms can fuse their cells, reproducing asexually through mitosis to form new cells that are not identical to the parent cell.

Has regulatory areas for thirst, hunger, body temperature, water balance, and blood pressure

Urgent in guinea pigs, black fur (b) is dominant over white fur (b). cross a heterozygous (hybrid) black guinea pig with a homozygous (purebred) white guinea pig. complete a punnett square, identify the genotype(s), phenotype(s), and probability (% and fraction) that the offspring will be black and white?
