Answer:

Pupil

Function: serves as site for entry of light into the eyeball.

Explanation:

The hole in the center of the iris is called pupil. The light enters the eyeball through the pupil. The pupil is circular or oval in shape and appears mostly black in color. With the help of muscular iris, the size of the pupil changes according to the intensity of incoming light.

Hence, the pigmented portion of the eyes of vertebrates (the iris) has a hole in its center called pupil to allow the light to enter the eyeball.

In certain mice, long tails (T) are dominant over short tails (t). If 2 hybrid mice mate, what will the outcome be?
yuradex [85]

Answer:

3 long tails : 1 short tail

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for tail length in mice. The allele for long tail (T) is dominant over the allele for short tail (t). This means that an heterozygous mice will possess the long tail length.

According to this question, in a cross between two hybrid or heterozygote mice i.e. Tt × Tt, the following gametes will be produced by each parent:

Tt - T and t

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following will be produced: TT, Tt, Tt and tt.

Offsprings with genotype TT, Tt and Tt will have a LONG TAIL while genotype  tt will have a SHORT TAIL. Hence, the phenotypic ratio will be 3 long tails : 1 short tail.
