The doctors could simply monitor the symptoms of an infected person. If the infected person sneezes or coughs, then the virus is likely airborne or transmitted from infected surfaces. If no obvious symptoms that would facilitate transmission are detected, the scientists can test for the presence of the virus in the food and drink at the party.

AfilCa [17]

Yes! a region of the body with greater sensory acuity to have cutaneous receptors with large receptive fields, or small receptive fields.

The sensory receptor located in the skin is known as a cutaneous receptor ( the dermis or epidermis). The somatosensory system includes them. Mechanoreceptors (pressure or distortion), nociceptors (pain), and thermoreceptors are cutaneous receptors (temperature). The lowest spatial resolution is found in the thigh and calf area, whereas the fingertips have the highest spatial resolution (and the smallest receptive fields) (and largest receptive fields). Two-point discrimination threshold measurements can be used to assess the spatial resolution in response to light touch stimuli.

In rats, the allele for long whiskers is dominant to the allele for short whiskers. At another gene locus, a dominant allele pro
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

We have 2 independent genes with 2 alleles each: L/l and W/w

  • W_: whiskers
  • ww: no whiskers
  • L_: long whiskers
  • ll: short wiskers

Individuals with short whiskers will have the genotype <em>WWll </em>or <em>Wwll</em>.

<u>A cross between a rat heterozygous for both genes and a homozygous recessive rat is done:</u>

<h3>WwLl x wwll</h3>

-The homozygous rat will produce only <em>wl </em>gametes.

-The heterozygous rat will produce the following gametes: <em>WL</em>, <em>Wl</em>, <em>wL</em>, <em>wl</em>.

If you do a Punnett Square, you'll get that 25% of the offspring will be WwLl and will have short whiskers.

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

The purpose of breeding experiments is to develop varieties or different plants with flowers expressing a new combination of form and shape.

Explanation:

Breeding or plants breeding refers to process of changing or altering plants characteristics or traits to produce new plants varieties with desirable traits or characteristics. The purpose of breeding is to develop varieties plants that have the desired traits or characteristics . Also, it's purpose is to develop varieties of plants with flowers expressing a new combination of form and shape.

Experimental breeding is a way of crossing organisms with different alleles to produce new variety of crop with desired characteristics.
