<span>The correct answer is c. ​hypothalamus to pituitary gland to adrenal glands.
</span>
When it comes to stress, hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) is responsible for stress response. Hypothalamus releases corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) which binds to its receptors on the anterior pituitary gland. As a result, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is released and it stimulates the release of cortisol from the adrenal gland. At a certain levels of cortisol, this steroid hormone exerts negative feedback to the hypothalamic release of CRH.

What do scientists often use to study microevolution?
Allisa [31]
They are known as evolutionary biologists. Strictly speaking, anthropology is split up into a number of disciplines - physical (sometimes known as biological) anthropology is the study of evolution as it relates to human beings. Further to this, scientists who study evolution in the fossil record are known as evolutionary palaeobiologists or simply palaeobiologists.

If a spinach plant with flat (FF) green (GG) leaves is crossed (pollination and fertilization occur) with another spinach plant
never [62]

Answer:

The offsprings of this cross will inherit the flat (F) and green (G) alleles from the first parent and also the crinkly (f) and purple (g) alleles from the second parent. However, the offsprings will only inherit the flat, green traits.

Explanation:

This question involves two different genes coding for leaf shape and leaf color respectively. The alleles for flat (F) and green (G) leaves are dominant over the alleles for crinkly (f) and purple (g) leaves.

According to this question, If a spinach plant with flat (FF) green (GG) leaves is crossed with another spinach plant with crinkly (ff) purple (gg) leaves, all the offsprings in the F1 generation will possess a FfGg heterozygous genotype.

This genotype means that the F1 offsprings of this cross will inherit the flat (F) and green (G) alleles from the first parent and also the crinkly (f) and purple (g) alleles from the second parent. However, they will only inherit the flat, green traits because they are dominant over the crinkly and purple trait.
