The correct answer is HPA axis.
The Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis is one of the most important neuroendocrine systems, which regulates the stress response and other functions such as the digestion, mood, emotions and the immune system.
The hypothalamus, when triggered by a possible stressor, releases two hormones; the vasopressin and the corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH). CRH, in turn, triggers the release of the adrenocorticotropin hormone (ACTH) from the pituitary gland. As a result of the secretion of ACTH, cortisol is secreted by the adrenal cortex.
Cortisol is a steroid hormone, considered to be our body's stress hormone.
Answer:
The result of cross two squashes with yellow seeds is an offspring of squash with green seeds -dominant caracter- heterozygous and yellow seeds squashes in a genotype proportion 1:2:1 and phenotype proportion 3:1
Explanation:
The cross of two heterozygous individuals for a characteristic results in an offspring that will have both characteristics in pure and heterozygous form. It is a cross monohybrid which complies with the principle of independent segregation exposed by Mendel.
For the characteristic "seed color" the green color would be G and yellow represented as g.
At the cross of two heterozygous squashs:
- Parents: Gg X Gg
- <u>Punnett's Square</u>:
Alleles G g
G GG Gg
g Gg gg
Offspring:
- A pumpkin of green seeds GG (25%)
- Two pumpkins of green heterozygous seeds Gg (50%)
- One pumpkin of yellow seeds gg (25%)
Genotype proportion 1:2:1
Phenotype proportion 3:1
False, that is a close answer and can be easily confused with the right answer which is "Centromere" it is the specialized region of the chromosome where two sister chromatids are most closely attached.
The centrosome is like the organization center in the process of cell division. Has two centrioles.
