Answer:

Pancreas.

Explanation:

Pancreas is an organ that acts as both exocrine as well as endocrine gland. As exocrine gland, it secretes digestive enzymes into the small intestine that help in digestion of complex food molecules.

As an endocrine gland, it secretes glucagon (from alpha cells) and insulin (from beta cells) hormones, directly into the bloodstream. Both of these hormones are responsible for the regulation of blood sugar level in the body.

Thus, the correct answer is 'pancreas.'

Explanation: f a double heterozygote is testcrossed and gametes are produced in a ratio of 1:1:1:1, this can be interpreted as unlinked genes or as genes that are 50 map units apart. Because gametes this far apart cannot be distinguished from gametes that are unlinked, it's not possible to get a ratio of gametes that indicates a distance of greater than 50 map units.
