About 70% of Americans perceive a bitter taste from the chemical phenylthiocarbamide (PTC). The ability to taste this chemical r

esults from a dominantallele (T) and not being able to taste PTC is the result of having two recessive alleles (t). Albinism is also a single locus trait with normal pigment being dominant(A) and the lack of pigment being recessive (a). A normally pigmented woman who cannot taste PTC has a father who is an albino taster. She marries a homozygous, normally pigmented man who is a taster but who has a mother that does not taste PTC. What are the genotypes of the possible children (choose all that apply)

The genotype for the possible children is 'AATt, AAtt, Aatt, AaTt'.  Woman has normal pigment which means she must have at-least one' 'A. her father is albino and albino allele is recessive , so his genotype is 'aa'. Then 'Aa' genotype is present in skin.

Woman cannot taste PTC because the ability ti taste PTC is dominant .So 'tt' genotype is present for tasting trait. Putting both the trait the woman's genotype is 'Aatt'.

(PTC) Phenylthiocarbamide tasting is  a trait governed by pair of alleles ,  'T' is for tasting dominant and recessive 't' is for non- tasting.The genotype of parents perform a punnett square to determine the F1 offspring. And the genotype of possible children can be determine.

What are the two circuits of the cardiovascular system? What does it mean to say that the cardiovascular system is a closed syst
maksim [4K]

Answer:

The two circuits of the cardiovascular system are: Pulmonary Circuit and Systematic Circuit. The pulmonary circuit is shorter than the systemic and is responsible for carrying deoxygenated blood to the lungs from the right atrium, for oxygenation. The systemic circuit is longer and leaves the aortic artery, carrying oxygenated blood throughout the body and nutrients for survival. If less blood were pumped into the systemic circuit, this amount would not be sufficient to compensate for the organism's needs, with the corresponding consequences that this would entail.  

It is said that the cardiovascular system is a closed system because blood travels inside a network of blood vessels without leaving them.

When the birth rate is equal to each woman producing exactly enough offspring to replace herself and her offspring's father, and
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

R = 0 and no population growth.

Explanation:

Birth rate may be defined as the growth of individual per thousand and death rate determines the death of individual per thousand in a year. The birth and death changes the population dynamics.

The growth rate depends on both the factors that are birth rate and death rate. Here, the birth rate is balanced or equal that replace the offspring father. The change in the population growth is same and the birth and replacement almost cancel out each other. In this case, the birth rate is zero and population do not grow.

Thus, the answer is  R = 0 and no population growth.
