Ainat [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is-

F1 -  AaBb (lacerate)

F2 - A_B_; A_bb; and aaB_ (lacerate)

     - aabb (normal)

2. Two genes, with a dominant allele at either or both loci.

Explanation:

The given information gives THE following data:

Dominant: Lancerate leaves - AABB

Recessive: normal leaves - aabb

F1 has - all Lacerated leaves - AaBb

F2 by selfing F1:

         AB               Ab         aB         ab

AB    AABB        AABb      AaBB    AaBb

Ab     AABb       AAbb      AaBb     Aabb

aB     AaBB       AaBb       aaBB     aaBb

ab     AaBb       Aabb       aaBb      aabb

Here, 15/16 = lacerate which is 0.94 which is equal to the value of lacerate given in the question - 249/265 = 0.94

And normal 1/16 = 0.062 is almost same as 16/265 = 0.060

Thus, the genotypes of -

F1 -  AaBb (lacerate)

F2 - A_B_; A_bb; and aaB_ (lacerate)

     - aabb (normal)

Even though they may be teratogenic, opioids were prescribed to _____ percent of pregnant women on medicaid.
Evgesh-ka [11]

Even though they may be teratogenic, opioids were prescribed to percent of pregnant women on medicaid.

Opioids are a group of chemicals that are naturally occurring in the opium poppy plant. They act on the brain to create a range of effects, including the numbing of pain with many of these drugs.

Opioids can be either legal street drugs like heroin or prescription prescriptions that are frequently referred to as painkillers.

Opioids, often known as narcotics, are different from over-the-counter pain relievers like aspirin and Tylenol despite the fact that they also reduce pain.

opiods research has been and continues to be essential in addressing a variety of current global aims and issues, including maintaining food, water, and energy security for a healthy population on a planet that is habitable.

Why are fungi fossils so rare?
Volgvan
The reason as to why fungi fossils seem so rare is that they are usually microscopic and often difficult or impossible to identify. Not much information on fungi fossils has been documented. This could be because fungi fruiting bodies consist of soft, fleshy and easily degradable tissues which due to their poor integrity do not keep or preserve as well as animal tissue. Even when available, it takes a trained eye to recognize fungal fossils. Not many people have the training and expertise to recognize the fossils.

What is the difference between a bony fish and a cartilaginous fish?
blondinia [14]
Bony fish belong to Class Osteichthyes, while cartilaginous fish belong to Class Chondrichthyes. Bony fish have a bony skeleton, while cartilaginous fish have one composed mostly of cartilage. Bony fish have body coverings of scales, while cartilaginous fish are covered with dendritical projections (think shark skin).
Bony fish are found in fresh and salt water; cartilaginous fish are found only in salt water. Bony fish have gills covered by an operculum; cartilaginous fish have gill slits. Bony have no eyelids; the cartilaginous fish do. Bony fish have an air-filled swim bladder; cartilaginous fish have an oil-filled liver to keep them bouyant. Hope this helps! Whew!
