There are two jet streams, a subtropical and a polar-front jet stream.

Jet streams are air currents blowing high above the Earth. These air currents are in the highest part of the atmosphere. Their speeds usually range from 129 to 225 kilometers per hour or 80 to 140 miles per hour. Jet streams are faster in winter when the temperature differences between tropical, temperate, and polar air currents are greater.

At most of the times in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, there are two jet streams: a subtropical jet stream centered at about 30 degrees latitude and a polar-front jet stream whose position varies with the boundary between polar and temperate air. During summer in the Northern Hemispheres, a reverse jet stream blows toward the west in tropical high altitudes.

Humans have a gene, "T" that is involved in muscle formation of the tongue. Individuals with the one allele can roll their tongu
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Tongue-rolling is dominant, and both parents were heterozygous

Explanation:

Tongue rolling is a type of variation in human beings. When allelic genes are not identical as in Tt, the condition is referred to as heterozygous. An individual with such a genotypic condition is referred to as a heterozygote.

Both parents had a genotype of Tt and they could roll their tongues because T is dominant over the t gene.

              T     t

  T         TT   Tt

   t         Tt     tt

TT : Tt : tt

1 : 2 : 1

In a heterozygous parent Tt, the chance of producing T gamete from both parents is each 1/2 each. Similarly the chance of forming t gamete is 1/2. Therefore, the chance of gamete T and t fusing to get genotype Tt is 1/2*1/2=1/4.

The ratios of phenotypes are 3/4 will be able to roll the tongue and 1/4 will not be able to roll the tongue.

The mode of inheritance was monohybrid inheritance since one characteristic like tongue-rolling is controlled by a single pair of hereditary factors contributed by both parents.
