A Punnett square without interaction between genes is shown as follows:

          OT        Ot     OT       Ot
OT    OOTT  OOTt   OOTT  OOTt
oT     OoTT   OoTt   OoTT   OoTt
OT    OOTT  OOTt  OOTT   OOTt
ot      OoTt    Oott    OoTt     Oott

Summary: 
Genotype    probability      phenotype
OOTT          4/16 = 1/4      orange/tall
OOTt           4/16 = 1/4      orange/tall
OOtt            0/16 = 0         orange/short
OoTT          2/16  = 1/8      orange/tall
OoTt            4/16  = 1/4     orange/tall
Oott             2/16  = 1/8     orange/short
ooTT                        0        yellow/tall
ooTt                         0        yellow/tall
oott                          0        yellow/short
(Total                         1)

Therefore the phenotype distribution is as follows:
phenotype      probability
orange/tall      1/4+1/4+1/8 = 7/8
orange/short                          1/8
yellow/tall                               0
yellow/short                            0
(Total                                      1)

Juxtaglomerular cells of the juxtaglomerular apparatus secrete _______________ when _______________.
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-D

Explanation:

In case the blood pressure drops in the body, the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney start converting the prorenin into renin. This renin converts inactive angiotensin to angiotensin I which gets converted to angiotensin II by ACE enzyme.

The angiotensin II acts as vasoconstrictor narrowing the vessels and thus increasing the blood pressure. It also stimulates the secretion of aldosterone which increases the reabsorption of sodium ions and help increase the blood pressure of the blood.

Thus, option-D is the correct answer.

Good coronary circulation select one:
Ludmilka [50]
Good coronary circulation nourishes the heart and reduces the risk of a heart attack. Coronary arteries supply blood to the myocardium and other components of the heart. They originate from the left side of the heart at the base of the aorta. The heart muscles needs oxygen-rich blood to be able to carry out its functions.

You are doing lab work with a new species of beetle. You have isolated lines that breed true for either blue shells and long ant
aev [14]

Answer:

Due to the fact that when crossing the isolated lines, the F1 progeny expression resulted in all alleles having blue shells and long antennas,  the dominant <em>shell/color & length/antenna</em> combination is:

<em>"</em><em>Blue Shell & Long Antenna</em><em>"</em>

The descending pathway from the red nucleus to the lower motor neurons is the __________ tract.
m_a_m_a [10]

Descending tracts are the pathways by which motor signals are pass through from the brain to lower motor neurones. Thus, all the neurones within the descending motor system are classed as upper motor neurones. The lower motor neurones then directly innervate muscles to produce movement. Their cell bodies are found in the cerebral cortex or the brain stem, with their axons remaining within the CNS.
