(drag each tile to the correct identify which questions can be answered by what can be answered by science or which cannot. -is it right or wrong to use genetic engineering to produce new food products? -what are the most common social settings that tend to produce accomplished artists? -if a new gene is added to the genome of a tomato species, will that species be more resistant to insects? -should humans use biotechnology to bring extinct organisms from the fossil record back to life? -do the types of organisms found in the fossil record appear in consistent sequences in different parts of the world? -are michelangelo's paintings more impressive than rembrandt's?

Guinea pig coat color is determined by a single gene. the allele for black coat color is dominant to brown. in a cross between twoblack-haired guinea pigs, 20 offspring are born. if both parents were heterozygous, probability would predict that approximately howmany of the 20 offspring would have brown hair?

During crossing-over, a. genetic material is exchanged between nonsister chromatids, resulting in new combinations of alleles. b. nonsister chromatids from each homologous chromosome of a tetrad are exchanged, resulting in new combinations of alleles. c. one homologous chromosome of a tetrad is exchanged with another tetrad, resulting in new combinations of alleles. d. sister chromatids from each homologous chromosome of a tetrad are exchanged, resulting in new combinations of alleles. e. genetic material is exchanged between sister chromatids, resulting in new combinations of alleles.
