A) genetic hybrid
B) homozygous dominant
C) heterozygous dominant
D) heterozyous recessive

The right answer is B) homozygous dominant

We speak of homo / heterozygosity about a locus, that can be represented by several alleles (version). The alleles are dominant or recessive between them.

*So homozygote: same alleles

*heterozygote: different alleles


Consider a locus and 2 alleles:

allele R: dominant

allele r: recessively


*heterozygote: R / r

*homozygous recessive: r / r

*homozygous dominant: R / R

Being able to respond to change (irritability) is one of the necessary life functions. Which body system is mostly responsible f
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The correct answer is : nervous system.

Explanation:

Irritability is one of the key aspect life which is deal with being able to response or change according to the stimuli that is occur and disturbs the homeostasis of the body which is maintaining the body environment for living.

Nervous system is deal with the irritability by sensing the stimuli in which change occur it can be physical stimuli such as temperature, light, or sound or chemical stimuli such as pH, ions, amount of required chemical or biological stimuli such microbes in body. All these stimuli are sense b the sensory neurons and then send these signals to brain or spinal cord in order t act and respond accordingly to maintain homeostasis.

Thus, the correct answer is : nervous sytem.

Genetics is a branch of biology concerned with the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity in living organisms.[1][2][3]

The discoverer of genetics is Gregor Mendel, a late 19th-century scientist and Augustinian friar. Mendel studied "trait inheritance", patterns in the way traits are handed down from parents to offspring. He observed that organisms (pea plants) inherit traits by way of discrete "units of inheritance". This term, still used today, is a somewhat ambiguous definition of what is referred to as a gene.

Trait inheritance and molecular inheritance mechanisms of genes are still primary principles of genetics in the 21st century, but modern genetics has expanded beyond inheritance to studying the function and behavior of genes. Gene structure and function, variation, and distribution are studied within the context of the cell, the organism (e.g. dominance), and within the context of a population. Genetics has given rise to a number of subfields, including epigenetics and population genetics. Organisms studied within the broad field span the domains of life (archaea, bacteria, and eukarya).

Genetic processes work in combination with an organism's environment and experiences to influence development and behavior, often referred to as nature versus nurture. The intracellular or extracellular environment of a cell or organism may switch gene transcription on or off. A classic example is two seeds of genetically identical corn, one placed in a temperate climate and one in an arid climate. While the average height of the two corn stalks may be genetically determined to be equal, the one in the arid climate only grows to half the height of the one in the temperate climate due to lack of water and nutrients in its environment.
