<span>The correct
answer is c. hypothalamus to pituitary gland to adrenal glands.

When
it comes to stress, hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA) is responsible for
stress response. Hypothalamus releases corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH)
which binds to its receptors on the anterior pituitary gland. As a result, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) is released and it stimulates the release of
cortisol from the adrenal gland. At a certain levels of cortisol, this steroid
hormone exerts negative feedback to the hypothalamic release of CRH.

Answer:
No.
Explanation:
Pink flower colour in snapdragon is as a result of incomplete dominance. The pink flower colour has no allele in nature. Instead, the pink colour results from incomplete dominance of the allele that codes for red flower colour over the allele that codes for the white flower colour.
Assuming that the allele for red flower colour in the plant is R and the allele for white flower colour is r, true breeding red and white flower colour plants will have the genotype RR and rr respectively. In heterozygote state (Rr), the phenotype is usually pink, showing that the R allele has incomplete dominance over the r allele.
<em>Hence, there is no way for plant breeders to develop a true-breeding pink-flowered snapdragon. without some genetic manipulations/mutation.</em>
Answer:
The dependent variable is the biological sex of the alligator hatchling.
Explanation:
A hypothesis is essentially a suggested explanation for a specific phenomenon. These hypotheses attempt to offer well-tested reasons for certain observations through experiments.
Experiments are usually carried out under a variety of different conditions to test various hypotheses. To ensure reproducibility, accuracy, and validity of results, several factors must be identified when planning experiments.
For instance, various independent variables are strictly altered and observed while controls are kept constant - this ensures validity and can indicate if the experiment was influenced by external factors. Here, the factor being changed or tested is the temperature, and the factor being observed is the resulting biological sex of the organism.
