What nerve carries impulses that stimulate the muscle fibers of the diaphragm to contract?

Biology
1 answer:
Helga [31]3 years ago
7 0

The answer is phrenic nerve. Originates in the neck (C3-C5) and passes down between the lung and heart to reach the diaphragm. There are two phrenic nerves, a left, and a right one hence called a bilateral nerve. It also contains motor, sensory, and sympathetic nerve fibers hence called a mixed nerve. It is the only source of motor innervation to the diaphragm, hence critical for breathing.

What were the effects of the increase in White Collar<br> Jobs?
scoundrel [369]
White-collar workers were introduced into the realm of modern social science at the end of the nineteenth century. The starting point was twofold: (1) the notion of a growing number of occupations, employments, and functions that shared many traits of the working class while at the same time differing in important aspects from manual workers as well as from the higher social strata; and (2) the exceptional rapid growth of these categories in the decades around the turn of the century, which even outdid that of the manual workers.

Flower position, stem length, and seed shape are three characters that Mendel studied. Each is controlled by an independently as
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

1/64

Explanation:

<em>The probability of the offspring being homozygous dominant for the three alleles is 1/64.</em>

Since the three characters assort independently, the probability of the offspring being homozygous dominant for all the three traits is an independent event.

For independent events, the probability of all the events happening together is the multiplication of individual event's probability.

For a cross involving two heterozygotes, taking tall/dwarf for example:

Tt   x   Tt = TT, 2Tt, tt

The probability of obtaining a homozygous dominant genotype is 1/4.

Hence, the probability of the offspring being homozygous dominant for the three alleles will be:

1/4 x 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/64
