Is it true that some people have been kidnapped by aliens

This is not very likely.

What must happen before meiosis can begin

DNA doubles and produces sister chromatids before meiosis begins.

the chromosomes must replicate

What was the genotype of the plant that produced yellow pea F1 generation

Yy

What is the difference between a homozygous trait and a heterozygous trait and can you please provide an example for each

a homozygous trait is when an offspring has either both dominant genes or both recessive genes from its parents. a heterozygous trait is when an offspring has both dominant and recessive genes. for example: a long-tailed cat is dominant and a short-tailed cat is recessive. the long-tailed cat (homozygous dominant) had offsprings with the short-tailed cat (homozygous recessive). by doing the punnett square, 100% of their offspring will be heterozygous.

Is color blindness a dominant or a recessive trait

Color blindness is a recessive sex linked trait.

Why do more people have attached rather than unattached earlobes

Cause attached earlobes are the dominant trait. Unattached earlobes are reccessive.

In which generation were recessive traits visible Mendel's experiments

F2 Generation

Which phase occurs directly after G2

M Phase

In Mendel's experiment why did wrinkled seeds show up in the F2 generation even though they were not present in the F1 generation

Wrinkled seeds are recessive

The F1generation carried recessive alleles.

What would have most likely stopped mendel from finding a pattern in his result

If seed shape did not have a clearly recessive form

When and why does DNA need to be replicated

DNA is replicated during the S phase of the cell cycle. If DNA is not replicated then the new cell will not have a copy of the DNA. If it does not have a copy of the DNA, then the cell will not be able to function properly.

What would most likely stopped Mendel from finding a pattern is his results

if seed color and shape were located on the same chromosome

A mother has one allele for color blindness and one Allele or normal vision what is the probability that her Gamete Will have the Allele for the color blindness

50%

How did Mendel make the F1 generation for his experiment

he crossed two pure lines

How are meiosis and mitosis different

mitosis only has to do with celluar reproduction

meiosis has to do with sex cells reproducing
Mitosis creates new cells that are used for development, repair, asexual reproduction and growth. Meiosis creates cells in order for organisms to reproduce sexually.

Which best describes probability

the likelihood that something will happen
