The <em>correct</em> answer is:

Penicillium

Aspergillus

The lesson states:

If you've ever heard of or taken penicillin to fight off an infection, you can thank a member of the imperfect fungi called penicillium. Some mold species of penicillium are also important in the flavoring and aging of cheese. Roquefort and Camembert cheese owe their distinctive flavors to these fungi. Aspergillus is an imperfect fungus that is found on decaying food. It also contributes to the production of organic acids like citric acid. <u>Both penicillium and aspergillus produce enzymes that are purified and used in various industrial compounds and in medicine.</u>

Infer How do dominant and recessive<br> factors interact? sc.7..16.1
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The resulting characteristic is due to both alleles being expressed equally. An example of this is the blood group AB which is the result of codominance of the A and B dominant alleles. Recessive alleles only show their effect if the individual has two copies of the allele (also known as being homozygous) If you were to talk about dominant and recessive factors in human traits, such as brown/green eyes, brown would be dominant, only needing to be in 1 parent to pass down to the child. (i have no idea if this helps or not-- it's all i know.. sorry, ;w;)
