Short-term fatigue

Insomnia

Digestive issues like diarrhea and constipation

Suppressed appetite

Weight loss.

Two types of stressors that learners are likely to experience in a post school destination as a college or university or the wor

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

financial stress and family stress

Explanation:

When learners go to college or a university, their family expects a lot from them especially when the parents are the ones who brought the learner to study. This causes stress on the learners. Choosing the major can also be stressful, especially when the family intercedes in the learner's decision. This also creates a financial burden on the learner, especially when the learner supports himself. So,<em> he has to balance studying while working.</em> If he has a scholarship, he has to maintain his grades in order to keep up.

In the same way, <u>a person who goes to the workplace is also expected by his family to provide them financially.</u> This creates a financial stress on his end. Besides this, he is also expected to make commitments especially when he has children. He needs to balance working while taking care of his kids and attending to their needs at home and in school. This is how family stress can affect him.

The pedigree below tracks the presence of dimples through a family's generation. Having dimples is an autosomal dominant trait.

yulyashka [42]

A pedigree is a representation of a family history tracking a trait. The graph shows the inheritance pattern of the trait and its expression through several generations.

<h3>What is an autosomal dominant trait?</h3>

The autosomal dominant trait is the characteristic that is coded by a gene located in an autosomal chromosome (this is, not a sexual chromosome).

This trait is dominant because it is coded by the dominant allele, meaning that the recessive allele codes for the absence of dimples. The presence of only one dominant allele in the genotype is enough for the idividual to express dimples.

<u> Genotype Phenotype </u>

DD, Homozygous dominant Dimples

Dd, Heterozygous Dimples

dd, Homozygous recessive No Dimples

<h3>What is a pedigree?</h3>

The pedigree is the representation of a family history conserning a certain trait. In this case, dimples.

The pedigree shows the expression -and inheritance pattern- of the trait through several generations.

To correctly interpret a pedigree, we need to know that

Family members

→ Individuals are represented with geometrical figures.

→ Males are squares

→ Females are circles

Trait/Phenotype

→ Healthy/normal/not affected individuals are represented with empty figures

→ Affected/mutated individuals are represented with solid black figures

Generations

→ Each file is represented with a roman number, indicating the Generation.

Here we will assume that

Individuals represented with solid figures express dimples -shaded individuals-. They can be either DD or Dd. This is because dimples is not usuall.

Individuals with no dimples are represented with empty figures and are dd.

According to the provided pedigree,

I-1 ⇒ man DD or Dd

I-2 ⇒ woman dd

II-1 ⇒ man Dd or DD

II-2 ⇒ woman dd

II - 5 ⇒ woman dd

III - 1 ⇒ man Dd

III- 2 ⇒ woman dd

III - 6 ⇒ woman dd

Since this pedigree does not specify the relationship between individuals, I can not answer the question based on it. So, I will attach another tree to specify genotypes.

I advise you study this new example, and then follow the same reasoning to choose the correct individual according to you pedigree.

Can someone help me out please?!!!!!!!!

Producers are organisms that make their own food. Plants would be an example. Primary consumers would be those that eat producers(plants,algae). Secondary consumers are animals that eat primary consumers. Herbivores are animals that only eat plants. Carnivores are those that only eat meat and don’t eat plants. Omnivores are those that eat both meat and plants. De composers are those that decompose organic material like dead animals. The herbivores here are the kangaroo rats,grasshoppers and bunny’s. The carnivores here are the hawk,lizard,tarantula and rattlesnake. I don’t think there is an omnivore. And the only decomposed here is the bacteria. As it decomposes the bodies of the animals when they are dead.
