Answer:
Clomid tricks the body because it tells the brain that estrogen levels are low, thereby leading to higher production of this hormone
Explanation:
There are many types of hormones that are regulated by the negative feedback mechanism (where hormone feeds back to decrease its production). Clomid is a drug used to treat female infertility by making the body think that the concentration of estrogen is low, which induces the secretion of Follicle-stimulating (FSH) and luteinizing (LH) hormones by the pituitary gland. The estrogen hormone exerts negative feedback on the Gonadotropin-releasing (GnRH) hormone, which is responsible for the release of FSH and LH. High FSH levels stimulate the growth of follicles in the ovaries, which will be released during ovulation.
Answer:
Law of Independent assortment
Explanation:
Gregor Mendel, who was regarded the father of Genetics, discovered principles that governs inheritance in his experiments. He discovered that the alleles of a gene will separate into gametes when he performed a crossed involving a single gene or character like height, pea color etc. He proposed his law of segregation based on this.
However, he considered two characters or genes in his cross, which he called a DIHYBRID cross. He discovered that the alleles of each different gene separates into gametes independently of one another i.e. without one gene influencing the other in each gamete. He called this principle his LAW OF INDEPENDENT ASSORTMENT.
He obtained a 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio for the F2 dihybrid offsprings which is only possible if each gamete equally likely contains two alleles of the two different genes in different combinations.
