A medial moraine is a narrow band of rock debris which usually runs down the centre of the glacier. It forms from the merging of the lateral moraines of two glaciers and often occurs in regions that have been acted upon by a past ice age.

A vascular plant is a plant that is characterized by the presence of conducting tissue.
Triglycerides vary with respect to the number of - C atoms and double bonds in the tails.
Triglycerides are esters derived from glycerol and three fatty acids. These are the main constituents of body fat in humans and other animals, as well as vegetable fat. There are two main types of triglycerides - saturated and unsaturated.
Explanation:
The problem says that the hairless phenotype never breeds true. That means that it's not the result of a homozygous genotype (H₁H₁ or H₂H₂), so it is caused by the heterozygous genotype (H₁H₂).
The <u>expected </u>offspring from the cross between two Mexican hairless would be:
<h3>P
H₁H₂ x
H₁H₂</h3><h3>F1 1/4
H₁H₁, 2/4
H₁H₂ and 1/4
H₂H₂.</h3>
And the <u>expected</u> phenotypic ratio 3:1. However, the observed offspring shows a 2:1 ratio. What's happening?
If the observed phenotypic ratio in the offspring of a monohybrid cross (a single gene with two alleles) is 2:1, we can suspect that one of the genotypes is lethal in homozygosis and therefore does not appear in the progeny (the puppies are born dead).
If we proposed that the H₂ allele is lethal in homozygosis, then:
- The H₁H₁ genotype would cause normal puppies --> 1
- The H₁H₂ genotype would cause hairless puppies --> 2
- The H₂H₂ is lethal and causes the death of puppies --> 0
The phenotypic ratios change to 2:1, as observed in the experiment.
