The answer is <span>Conduct a test cross with a purebred recessive plant.
</span>
Test cross is the cross between an organism with unknown dominant genotype and an organism with known recessive genotype.
<span>Since dominant trait results from a dominant allele, the test cross can determine if an unknown genotype is heterozygous and homozygous dominant. </span>
If A is dominant allele, and a is recessive allele, then AA is dominant homozygote, Aa is a heterozygote, and aa is recessive homozygote.
<span>According to the Punnett square, if all of the offspring are heterozygote (Aa), then unknown genotype is dominant homozygous (AA). If half of the offspring are the heterozygote, and the other half are recessive homozygote, then the unknown genotype is heterozygote (Aa).</span>
Answer:
The policy for controlling environmental mercury pollution should address ways to prevent and control this pollution. Policy:
- Ban the incineration of waste
- Require that coal-burning companies remove mercury from the coal
- Allocate funds towards research and development for renewable energy resources in the hopes of switching away from coal.
- Require that products containing mercury be labeled as such.
- Set up programs that will recycle batteries and mercury-filled products.
- Set up education programs that will help inform people about mercury pollution.
This policy works by addressing the ways to prevent and control mercury pollution.
Three problems that could result from implementing this policy:
- Backlash from coal-burning companies.
- It could take a while before we completely shift away from using coal.
- Some of the programs that can be set up in this policy can be too expensive to set up and maintain.
Answer:
Neurotransmitters
Explanation:
Neurotransmitters are the chemicals present in the body used for the propagation of action potential. These neurotransmitters are also known as the body chemical messengers.
Neurotransmitters are stored in the neural cells. These chemicals are generally released when the cell is stimulated by the specific signal. The effect of neurotransmitter may be excitatory or inhibitory.
Thus, the answer is option (4).
