The data table below compares three boxes with the same volume but different dimensions. Compare the three boxes in terms of surface-area-to-volume ratios (SA/V). Describe the relationship between the surface area and the volume of a cell. Analyze the data and explain the benefits of elongated cell structures. (4 points) Box No. Length (mm) Height (mm) Width (mm) Surface area (mm2) Volume (mm3) SA/V Ratio
1 8 8 8 384 512 0.75
2 16 4 8 448 512 0.88
3 64 2 4 784 512 1.53

In sweet pea, gene c is responsible for color production and gene p is responsible for the purple color pigment. both of them are located on two different loci on different chromosomes. the flowers will be purple only when the plant has the genotypes as c_p_. no color will be produced with genotypes: ccpp, ccpp, ccpp, ccpp. thus, gene c controls the expression of gene p. what pattern of inheritance is exhibited here? a. pleiotropy b. epistasis c. multiple alleles

You have just sequenced a new protein found in mice and observe that sulfur-containing cysteine residues occur at regular intervals. what is the significance of this finding? it will be important to include cysteine in the diet of the mice. cysteine residues are required for the formation of α helices and β pleated sheets. cysteine residues are involved in disulfide bridges that form tertiary structure. cysteine causes bends, or angles, to occur in the tertiary structure of proteins.

Has anyone taken the genetics unit test in connexus? not looking for answers, just a little bit what to expect and some with studying.
