As we can see in the pedigree, both of the parents do not possess the trait, but one of the four offspring (marked with red) is expressing the trait.
Since the trait is recessive, the only way that is possible that the parents who do not possess the trait to have the offspring with the trait is that the parents are heterozygous for the trait. Meaning that both of the parents have one dominant allele and one recessive allele.
Answer:
B. Allows for specialized regions with specialized functions
Explanation:
Where the complete digestive system has different specialized regions to perform specialized functions, the gastrovascular cavity is the primary organ of digestion and circulation in two major animal phyla: the Cnidaria (including jellyfish and corals) and Platyhelminthes (flatworms).
The correct answer is reuptake.
The reabsorption of a neurotransmitter by a neurotransmitter transporter situated along the plasma membrane of an axon terminal or glial cell after it has done its activity of conducting a neural impulse is called reuptake.
The process of reuptake is essential for usual synaptic physiology as it permits for the recycling of neurotransmitters and monitors the neurotransmitter level in the synapse, thus, monitoring the duration of the signal resulting due to the discharge of the neurotransmitter.
The correct answer is tympanometer. A tympanometer is not used to measure hearing, but to rather measure the transmission of energy through the middle ear. In this way, tympanometry is an objective test of the function of the middle-ear. Tympanometry is used alongside other measures to asses hearing, such as pure tone audiometry.
