What is the gene MM? This is a two part question 

it is an example of a dominate genotype

200

abs, obliques, hamstrings, quadriceps, biceps, triceps, calves, pectorals, trapezius

300

What are the two types of cells called?

Eukaryotic & Prokaryotic

What does Homozygous and Hertozygous mean?

same gene and different gene

300

What type of weather front brings rain and violent weather? 

cold front 

300

S type and it does help their chances of survival like with the multicolored mike and ikes

400

What part of the cell is on the outside which gives it it's structure and keeps it's shape?

TBD

400

What are the two types of evolution and give an example of both.

micro and macroevolution

500

Explain why the cold air over the ocean during the day sinks and goes to the land & explain what happens to the warm over the land

it is when too many of a species is not hunted so they grow too large for nature to support them and there is fighting for resources like between humans
