Answer:

If the two organisms are heterozygous for the dominant trait.

Explanation:

For every trait, a diploid organism receives two forms of gene called ALLELE, from each parent. Allele is the variant form of a gene.

According to Mendel's law of dominance, for a particular trait, an allele is capable of masking the expression of another allele in a gene. The expressed allele is called the DOMINANT allele while the masked allele is called the RECESSIVE allele. Due to this, an organism can express a dominant trait even in a combined or heterozygous state i.e. different alleles.

When the two heterozygous organisms mate or are crossed, they undergo meiosis and their alleles are separated into GAMETES according to Mendel's law of segregation. For example; an organism with genotype (genetic make-up) Aa will produce gametes with A and a alleles.

Note that, a recessive trait can only be expressed in a homozygous state i.e. same allele. Hence, the two heterozygous organisms will produce gametes containing the recessive allele, which will likely combine to produce a recessive phenotype or trait.

A decrease in GFR will cause __________.
lara [203]
<h2>GFR </h2>

Explanation:

A decrease in GFR will cause lower Na and Cl ion concentration in the distal tubule

  • GFR stands for Glomerular Filtration Rate
  • The rate at which kidneys filter blood is called the glomerular filtration rate
  • The main driving force for the filtering process, or outward pressure is the blood pressure as it enters the glomerulus which is counteracted to some extent by inward pressure due to the hydrostatic pressure of the fluid within the urinary space, and the pressure generated by the proteins left in the capillaries that tend to pull water back into the circulatory system (colloidal osmotic pressure)
  • The net filtration pressure is the outward pressure minus the inward pressure

Progressive degeneration of the retina that affects night and peripheral vision is known as?
natka813 [3]

Progressive degeneration of the retina that affects night and peripheral vision is known as retinitis pigmentosa.

<h3>What is retinitis pigmentosa?</h3>
  • A collection of uncommon eye conditions known as retinitis pigmentosa affect the retina.
  • Retinitis pigmentosa causes the retinal cells to gradually deteriorate over time, resulting in visual loss.
  • RP is a hereditary condition that affects people at birth.
  • The term "retinitis pigmentosa" (RP) refers to a group of illnesses that affect the retina's light-sensitive cells and impair vision.
  • There is currently no medication to stop the course of the disease, nor is there a cure.
  • Night blindness and tunnel vision are symptoms.
  • Retinitis pigmentosa has no specific treatment.
  • However, using UV sunglasses to protect the retina in your eyes may help postpone the onset of symptoms.
  • For people with very advanced disease and severe visual loss, a retinal prosthesis (artificial retina) has been developed.
