Answer:

Option a. Production of white blood cells

Explanation:

The endocrine system is the system that involves the organs and glands that produce and secretes the hormones that acts on various other activity to regulate responses or activity.

Major function and examples of endocrine system are :

Aldosterone helps in fluid absorption in kidney

Thyroxine helps in regulating body metabolism and energy

Testosterone is responsible for sperm production is regulated

But, WBC formation is not regulated by hormones.

Thus, the correct answer is: option a. Production of white blood cells

Sophie [7]

Answer:

a. purple allele (C) = 0.609, pink allele (c) = 0.391

b. purple homozygotes = 371, pink homozygotes = 153, heterozygotes = 476

Explanation:

Given -

Purple flowers - 847

Pink flowers - 153

The frequency of recessive genotype i.e

q^ 2 = \frac{153}{1000} \\q^ 2 = 0.153\\

Frequency of recessive allele i.e q is equal to

q = \sqrt{0.153} \\q = 0.391

As per hardy Weinberg's first equilibrium equation -

p + q = 1\\p = 1-q\\p = 1-0.391\\p = 0.609

Frequency of purple homozygous species

= p^2\\= 0.609^2\\= 0.371

Number of purple homozygous species = 0.371 * 1000= 371

Number of pink homozygous species = 0.153 * 1000= 153

Heterozygous species is equal to

(1-0.371-0.153)* 1000\\= 0.476 * 1000\\= 476
