Answer:

Hypothesis.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is a testable explanation for an event. For example, if you see a certain type of bird at your bird feeder, but never your neighbor's, you could come up with the hypothesis that that specific species of bird likes something that is present in your own birdseed, but not your neighbor's. This is easily testable by switching out different birdseeds and seeing which ones attract the birds, and serves to explain why the birds only appear at your bird feeder.

Who is a person who has one recessive allele for a trait and one dominant allele for the same trait?

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer: The person is heterozygous for the trait. The person is a carrier of the recessive allele of the trait.

Explanation: Take for instance the height trait. If H is a dominant allele for tall height and h is recessive allele for short height, a person who has one recessive allele and one dominant allele will have a genotype of Hh, this means that the person is heterozygous for the trait. In this example, the genotype Hh will manifest outwardly as tall height because H is dominant over h.

Answer:

Specific phobia

Explanation:

Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th Edition, Text Revision gives a classification of recognised mental health disorders in the form of DSM-IV codes.

The fear of clowns is described as a specific phobia with a code of 300.29.

A specific phobia is a fear that lacks a reason or rational against an exposure to a certain object or situation.

Such specific phobias can leads to a disability in normal life as people suffering from such phobias tend to avoid situations where they may encounter such phobias.

The fear of clowns is known as Coulrophobia which is a type of specific phobia when it interferes with the normal functioning and is persistent.

Since Francis becomes anxious upon seeing a clown since he was 6 years old and the fear persists and he avoids going to places where he sees clowns, he has specific phobia against clowns.
