The respiratory distress that accompanies emphysema is caused by: repeated exposure to cigarette smoke

A condition that affects the alveoli (small air sacs) of the lungs. The transfer of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the lungs occurs in the walls of the alveoli. In emphysema, the alveoli swell abnormally, the walls are damaged, and breathing becomes difficult.

The main cause of emphysema is long-term exposure to air irritants, including cigarette smoke. Marijuana smoke. Air pollution

Symptoms of emphysema are :

  • Frequent coughing or wheezing.
  • Cough that produces a lot of sputum.
  • Shortness of breath, especially with physical activity.

There are 127 offspring from a cross of AaBb x AaBb. If Mendelian ratios are followed, how many offspring would you expect to ha
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

eight (8)

Explanation:

A phenotypic ratio of 9:3:3:1 is predicted from a cross of AaBb x AaBb (i.e., in a dihybrid cross). In this case, the expected phenotypic ratio is equal to:

A_B_ (9:3:3:1) =71.43 >> 71 both dominant phenotypes

aaB_ (9:3:3:1) = 23.81 >> 24 one dominant phenotype

A_bb (9:3:3:1) = 23.81 >> 24 one dominant phenotype

aabb (9:3:3:1) = 7.93 >> 8 both recessive phenotypes

Expected phenotipic ratio (9:3:3:1) = 71 + 24 + 24 + 8 = 127
