Michelle goes to her dentist and, after having a couple of cavities filled, her dentist strongly suggests that she reduce her in

take of sodas and increase her intake of calcium phosphates in the foods she eats. Why

She was suggested to increase calcium phosphate and reduce soda content because acidic soda dissolves the calcium phosphate of the teeth.

Explanation:

Calcium phosphate is an important mineral which keeps the teeth firm and strong. If calcium phosphate is not present in adequate quantity it will cause the teeth to become soft and easy for cavities to get formed.

Calcium phosphate naturally repairs the teeth by remineralization process.

Soda contains phosphoric and citric acids which dissolve the protective layer of calcium phosphate of the teeth and makes it brittle causing increased cavities.

A rooster with gray feathers is mated with a hen of the same phenotype. Among their offspring, 15 chicks are gray, 6 are black,
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Alleles for feather colour exhibit incomplete dominance or co-dominance.

50% gray offspring + 50% black offspring

Explanation:

<em>It means that the alleles for feather colour in the hen exhibit incomplete dominance or co-dominance over one another.</em>

Assuming the allele for white colour is B, white colour will be b while the heterozygote Bb gives the gray phenotype.

Gray rooster + gray hen = 15 gray chicks, 6 black chicks and 8 white chicks.

15:6:8 is roughly 2:1:1 which is phenotypic ratio obtainable from crossing two heterozygous individuals as pointed out by Mendel.

Bb   x   Bb = 1BB, 2Bb, and 1bb

Crossing the gray rooster (Bb) with a black hen (bb):

Bb   x   bb = Bb, Bb, bb, and bb

          = 2Bb (gray):2bb (black)

50% of the offspring will be gray while the remaining 50% will be black.

There are different types of nerves or mechanoreceptors located in your skin. Nerves that detect deep pressure are called _____.
UNO [17]

Nerves that detect deep pressure are called Pacinian corpuscles.

Pacinian corpuscles are microscopic onion-shaped nerve structures that are situated in the dermis and hypodermis. Pacinian corpuscles detect deep pressure and vibration. This nerve has a myelinated nerve ending in the middle of its structure and the external layer contains flattened cells, a lymph-like fluid and collagen fibers. The structure of pacinian corpuscles provides a fast response and rapid recovery by transmitting fast events. This make them sensitive to pressure and vibration.
