Answer:
75% brown, 25% white
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for color in chickens. The allele for brown color (B) is dominant over the allele for white color (b).
According to this question, a brown rooter with genotype 'BB' was crossed with a white hen (bb). The offsprings in the F1 generation will all possess the 'Bb' genotype and be brown colored. However, if these F1 offsprings are self-mated i.e Bb × Bb, the proportion of F2 offsprings will be 1BB, 2Bb, 1bb.
Since BB, Bb and Bb offsprings are Brown in color and bb is white in color, this means that the expected phenotypic appearance of the F2 offsprings will be:
¾ or 75% brown and ¼ or 25% white
Answer:
The receptors in the aortic and carotid bodies are chemoreceptors.
Explanation:
Chemoreceptors are specialized cells that are responsible for detecting and converting chemical signals into biological signals, to relay that information to the brain, where they will finally be interpreted. Among them we find the peripheral chemoreceptors, which are the aortic bodies, located along the wall of the aortic arch and innervated by the vagus nerve, and the carotid bodies, located in the neck. . Carotid bodies are stimulated by variations in the concentration of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood, as well as variations in blood pH. When the pH decreases the CO2 increases and the oxygen decreases, they activate the chemoreceptors to increase breathing.
Answer:
An ecological community is made up of all the populations of all the different species that live together in a particular area. The interactions between different species in a community are called interspecific interactions, inter- means "between".
