In order for a recessive gene to be in a persons phenotype, they would have to be homozygous recessive so it would be impossible for the man to have polydactyl if he’s heterozygous.

However, assuming that he is homo recessive with polydactyl and he marries a homozygous dominant woman, the offsprings would have a 100% chance of not having polydactyl

If he marries a heterozygous woman, they offsprings would have a 50/50 change of having/not having polydactyl

Hope this helps :)

Lunna [17]

D) no change in cardiac output, increased heart rate, decreased stroke volume occurs after blood donation

Explanation:

When a person donates blood, there is a slight loss of blood volume or hypovolemia. This triggers the baroreceptors of the blood; although does not trigger the osmoreceptor.

The baroreceptor responses are according to the arterial pressure which rises momentarily and results in increased sympathetic activity with decreased vagal activity.

These changes will lead to vasoconstriction, reduced stroke volume, increased heart rate or tachycardia which helps to maintain the cardiac output.

The soreness at the venepuncture site on the skin is due to bruising which is common after any needleprick. applying cold pack, elevating and resting the arm.

In order to compensate for the fluid volume loss and avoid dehydration, one must take plenty of fluids before and after blood donation.
