These three lizards have diff proteins for tongue color. They all have diff parents. What must be true?

A shrimp is the offspring of a father with long antenna and a mother with short antenna. This shrimp has medium antenna
because the gene from mom and dad created a protein for medium antenna
because the gene split the difference between long and short antenna
because the gene from ONLY dad created a protein for medium antenna
because the gene from ONLY mom created a protein for medium antenna

A father fox has long ears while a mother has short. Which statement explains why one baby fox could have short ears?
the gene combination from mom and dad created proteins for short ears
the gene combination from mom and dad made genes connect together for short
the baby fox did not get any genes from the mother
the baby fox did not get any genes from the father

Two coyotes (w/diff parents) have different paw shapes. Each has a diff protein for paw shapes. This means...
they will have different paws because of protein combinations in the cell
they will have different shaped paws because the parents have diff genes
they will have the same paws because the proteins still connect in the cell
they will have different paws because of gene combinations in the cell

Two cats (w/different parents) have different fur colors; one black and one brown. Why is their fur different?
different versions of the gene which makes different proteins
different versions of fur color come from their different parents
different versions of the genes which make different genes
different versions of the genes makes gene connections different

A butterfly has yellow wings. It's mother had colorless wings and it's father had yellow wings. This means it inherited
one copy of genes from mom and dad; the protein combination was colorless
one copy of genes from dad and none from mom
one copy of genes from mom and none from dad
one copy of genes from mom and dad; the protein combination was yellow

Two tigers have different parents. Each tiger has the same protein for whisker color. Which statement must be true?
they will have different whisker colors because of their different parents
they have the same proteins so the whisker color will be the same
all tigers have the same whisker color
they will have diff whisker colors b/c proteins can connect in diff ways

Why is the nucleus the most important part of a cell?
The nucleus is not an important part of the cell
The nucleus makes ribosomes copies that create genes
The nucleus contains the gene versions that create proteins
The nucleus contains the proteins that make a person unique
