Answer:

C. Fi 1:0, F2 3:1

Explanation:

Firstly, Mendel's law of segregation states that the alleles of a gene will randomly separate into gametes during gamete formation. In this case involving a single trait, hence, a single gene. Mendel crossed two purebreeding plants i.e. homozygous plants that produced different phenotypes for the same gene. He obtained his offsprings which he called F1 offsprings. He realized that all the F1 offsprings expressed only one phenotype. For example, when he crossed homozygous tall (TT) and short (tt) plants, he got F1 offsprings that were all tall.

He then self-crossed these F1 offsprings to produce a F2 offsprings that had a phenotypic ratio of 3:1 i.e. 3tall, 1short plant. He concluded that the alleles of the single gene had segregated into the gametes but one allele was capable of masking the expression of another, as seen in the heterozygous F1 offsprings that were all tall (Tt).

Hence, he obtained a 1:O ratio for his F1 offsprings then a 3:1 ratio for his F2 offsprings.

Some people must avoid foods high in msg, as oversupply of the neurotransmitter _____ can over stimulate the brain, inducing sei
choli [55]

The right answer is glutamate

Glutamate is a major excitatory neurotransmitter associated with learning and memory.

It is also associated with Alzheimer's disease whose first symptoms are felt in memory.

Most people unknowingly consume monosodium glutamate (MSG), a commonly used food additive.

An experiment was done on healthy patients, giving them 12 grams of glutamate. It was found that the experience led to headaches, nausea or jaw pain in 50-60% of cases.

It was also measured the level of glutamate contained in the muscles of patients with jaw problems. The tests concluded that the most painful muscles were those containing the highest levels of glutamate.

According to him, one of the keys to chronic pain could lie in the development of drugs that reduce the rate of glutamate.
