Answer:

The correct answer is- 4:0

Explanation:

Marfan syndrome is a genetic problem which affects the connective tissue in the body. The trait for this disease is autosomal dominant which means even one abnormal copy of this gene in the offspring or individual is sufficient to cause this syndrome.

Let S is the allele that is dominant for this syndrome and s is recessive. So if a cross between homozygous dominant(SS) and heterozygous individual (Ss) occurs than all the offspring would have this syndrome.  

                                   S      s

                              S  SS   Ss

                              S  SS   Ss

Therefore all 4 offspring would have at least one dominant allele which is sufficient to cause this syndrome. So the phenotype ratio would be 4:0.

Answer:

organizational effect.

Explanation:

Organizational effect is a long-term effect of hormonal action typically occurring in fetal development or the early postnatal period that leads to permanent changes in behavior and neural functioning. For example, the presence of testosterone in young male rats leads to long-term male-typical behavior, and female rats can be masculinized by neonatal exposure to testosterone.

Organizational effects act during development, often during critical period. Such hormones affect the construction or fine-tuning of sex organs or neural circuits underlying behavioral capacities that will be needed in adulthood.

Organizational effects are often under tight genetic control, and not subject to major influence by environment.

Organizational effects are often irreversible.
