The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

Question: A gene for corn has two alleles, one for yellow kernels and one for white kernels. Cross pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. Which term best describes the relationship between the two alleles?

a) Incomplete dominance

b) Genetic recombination

c) Chimerism

d) Codominance

Answer:

d) codominance

Explanation:

Codominance is a pattern of inheritance when none of the alleles of a gene is able to mask the expression of the other allele of the same gene. When the two alleles are present together in a heterozygous genotype, both are expressed and the phenotype of the heterozygote is different from both the pure breeding parents. In the given example, cross-pollination of yellow corn and white corn results in the ears of corn that have an approximately even mix of yellow and white kernels. This means that the heterozygote expresses both the allele for the corn color. Therefore, it represents codominance.

joja [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is-Wernicke's area.

Explanation:

Wernicke's area is located on the left side of the brain in the temporal lobe. It is that region of the brain which is responsible for language development and language comprehension.  

So if a problem occurs in the Wernicke's area of the brain than it will be difficult for that person to form a meaningful speech and understanding the words being spoken to them. That person will be able to talk fluently and in phrases but his sentences might lack meaning.  

Therefore the damage to Gia's brain was probably localized in her Wernicke's area.

This is should be told by the nurse in a nice and emphatic manner, especially in this case wherein patients diagnosed with HIV are particularly emotionally sensitive. While this is true, the nurse should not advise the patient to stop taking his or her supplements; especially being diagnosed with HIV, his or her immune system is very frail and needs more than the usual nutrients compared to the normal population. </span></span>
