Answer:

c. Aa Bb

Explanation:

The parents were pure breeding with genotypes AAbb and aaBB. A cross between AAbb and aaBB would produce AaBb genotypes in F1 progeny. Two F1 strains would be crossed to produce F2 progeny. The F2 progeny would have the genotype ratio= 1:2:1:2:4:2:1:2:1.

Out of all the obtained genotypes in the F2 generation, the proportion of "AaBb" genotype was 4/16. Therefore, "4" in the given ratio represents the genotype "AaBb".

Nature  vs Nurture debate.

Explanation:

Development in human is inborn.The stages of development is dictated and directed by expression of genes encoded by the DNA.Therefore physiological and biochemical interpretations of these DNA dictates is known as human development. it is a fixed mechanisms  which is fastest  at childhood,and progressively slower at advanced stage.<u>Although environmental factors may influence  this developmental stages, the exact mechanism of occurrence is constant and fixed.</u>

<u />

Nuture concept believe that, human development is as a result  of societal  and cultural factors in the environment, and the progression of the development is due to the influences of theses factors  on human perception of life. Thus Human development is  acquired through life exposure and experiences.They are therefore  dynamic, and not static,  but fluctuates based on level of exposure  in the environment.

<u>However, both concept interacts with one another to ensure an holistic human development. Generally it is the interaction of the environment with genetic that explains the concept of natural selection and evolution of human race.  </u>

Match the description of each plants with the group to which the plant belongs. (Match each number to a letter please!)
Hoochie [10]

The right matches are :

A. bryophyte  ==> 3.

B. pteridophyte  ==> 2.

C. gymnosperm  ==> 1.  

D. angiosperm  ==> 4.


These four types of plants are cormophytes.

Bryophyte is a terrestrial plant belonging to the family Bryophyta, which does not have a real vascular system.

Gymnosperms are the first order of didynamy containing phanerogamous plants whose eggs are not enclosed in closed carpels.

Angiosperms are plants whose seeds are enclosed in a closed ovary.

Pteridophytes produce neither flowers nor seeds but are vascular plants.

marta [7]
<span>The answer would be: a. inflammation is accompanied by an increase in peristaltic movements of his small intestine.

The pathogen will attract the white blood cells that will induce inflammation in the intestine. Inflammation of the intestine will cause increased permeability and increased bowel movement, makes the food transit time reduced and lead to diarrhoea. This mechanism is beneficial since it can help the intestine to "flush out" pathogen of toxins that induce the inflammation.</span>
