Which hormone allows a woman to produce milk after she gives birth?

Biology

NikAS [45]2 years ago

Prolactin hormone allows a woman to produce milk after she gives birth. Thus, the correct option is D.

<h3>What is lactation?</h3>

Lactation is the process of producing and releasing milk from the mammary glands in breasts. Lactation begins in pregnancy when hormonal changes signal the mammary glands to make milk in preparation for the birth of baby.

It’s also possible to induce lactation without a pregnancy using the same hormones that your body makes during pregnancy. Lactation ends once your body stops producing milk.

Milk ducts increase in size and number when levels of estrogen and progesterone rise. The result is a fuller breast. The mammary glands start to get ready to produce milk.

What is the phenotype of a plant with the genotype RR
vazorg [7]
To give a direct answer, I’d have to know what gene we were looking at. However, in a general sense, when a genotype has two capital letters, it means that it’s homozygous dominant. Take for example:

R= tall stalk
r= short stalk

The uppercase R is a dominant allele, which means if the plant has the gene with this in it (RR or Rr) then it will have that trait. If it has two lowercase letters (rr) then it will be the recessive trait.

Using this example, RR would be the tall stalk. For whatever your question is, the dominant phenotype would be the answer.

A mouse geneticist selected for increased 12-day litter weight (total weight of a litter of offspring 12 days after birth) in a
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

12-day litter weight is a trait that has an important genetic influence and therefore also a high response to selection

Explanation:

Heritability is a statistical measure of how much of the variation in a given trait can be attributed to genetic differences and how much of trait variation is due to environmental factors. A heritability value close to 1 indicates that almost all of the variability is due to genetic factors, while being poorly influenced by environmental factors. In this case, 12-day litter weight is a trait that exhibits an important genetic component (i.e., a high heritability value), thereby the correlation between parent and offspring will be high and lines selected for this trait will show a high response to selection.
