A short-tailed mutant of mouse was discovered. Multiple crosses of this mouse to normal mice produced 27 normal, long-talied mic
poizon [28]

Answer:

Allele for short tail is a dominant phenotype.

Explanation:

In the second generation , the cross between a group of short tailed mice  produces either short tailed or long tailed species.

This means the short tailed mice must be having the allele for long tail trait but did not expressed it.

Hence, when two alleles are presents and one is expressed while the other is suppressed then allele expressing its trait would be the dominant phenotype.

Hence, the allele for short tail is a dominant phenotype.

Cross between two short tailed mice will be as follows

Ss * Ss

SS, Ss, Ss, ss

Out of four three are short tailed while one "ss" is long tailed.

How are hormones distributed to tissues, and what determines which cells hormones will affect?
oee [108]

Answer:

b. They are carried throughout the body in the bloodstream, and each hormone affects target cells that have receptors for it.

Explanation:

Hormones are secreted by hormonal glands after they get signals to secrete or release the hormone. Then these hormones are carried by the bloodstream to their destination. Each hormone has its target organ or tissue which do not response to other hormones because it the cells in those tissue have specific receptor which binds to specific hormones.

For example, luteinizing hormone in male is produced by the pituitary gland which reach to the testis through blood and influence the Leydig cell to release testosterone. So Leydig cells have receptors for LH not for insulin hormone so it binds specifically to LH hormone. So the correct answer is b.
