Answer:
a. S represents allele for short hair while s represents allele for long hair.
b. Ss (male) × ss (female)
c. 50% Ss, 50% ss
d. 3 long hair (ss), 3 short hair (Ss)
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for hair length in guinea pigs. The allele for short hair (S) is dominant over the allele for long hair (s).
a. Letter "S" will represent the allele for short hair while letter "s" will represent the allele for long hair.
b. According to this question, a heterozygous male is crossed with a long-haired female. The genotype of the male guinea pig is "Ss" while that of the female is "ss". (see attachment for the punnet square)
c. The possible genotypes of the offsprings in this cross are: Ss and ss, each carrying 50% each as they are produced in a ½ Ss: ½ ss.
d. Since 50% of the offsprings will be both short haired and long haired, If they have six babies, 3 of them will be short-haired while 3 of them will also be long-haired.
The answer that best fits the description above is the hormone GLUCOCORTICOID. This was according to Hans Selye, an Austrian-Canadian endocrinologist. According to him, ill health induced by exposure of chronic stress is due to the secretion of the hormone glucocorticoid.
Answer:
2. Alec Jeffreys
Explanation:
'DNA fingerprinting' or DNA typing (profiling) as it is now known, was first described in 1985 by an English geneticist named Alec Jeffreys. Dr. Jeffreys found that certain regions of DNA contained DNA sequences that were repeated over and over again next to each other.
The answer to your question 12
They are called the mesenteries. They are also called the mesenterium, they are peritoneal fold attaching to the small intestine to the dorsal body wall.In humans it wraps around the pancreas and the small intestine and extensions down around the colon and the upper portion of the rectum. Their function is to anchor the small intestine to the walls of the abdominal walls.
