Answer: This is due to inhibitory postsynaptic potential.

Explanation: Inhbitory postsynaptic pontential causes less or no action potential, due to that target nueron recieves negative signals from the transmitter or it has no receptors that can respond to that particular nuerotransmitter as there are many nuerotransmitters varying in sizes and shapes with specificity. Meaning a different nuerotransmitter will generate an electrical impulse to a certain kind of nueron causing an inhibitory/excited response which in this case the response was inhibitory.

If round seeds is dominant to wrinkled seeds in peas, what type of stem will the offspring of a round seed plant and a wrinkled
Phoenix [80]

Since the round seed gene is the dominant gene, it follows that, a cross between  a round seed plant and a wrinkled seed plant will lead to only round seed offspring.

<h3>What is genetics?</h3>

Genetics is the science that studies the patterns of inheritance. The unit of inheritance located in the chromosome is called the gene.

Since the gene for having round seeds is dominant over the gene for having wrinkeled seeds, a cross between  a round seed plant and a wrinkled seed plant will lead to only round seed offspring.
