Teratogens affect the fetus and not the mother because teratogens are "environmental exposures" done by the mother. It is an agent that can disturb the development of an embryo of fetus such as drugs or ingestion of harmful substances such as smoking and drinking. What happens is that the toxins are being ingested by the fetus through the umbilical cord where they are being supplied by oxygen and nutrition and instead of providing nutrients harmful substances are being ingested by a growing fetus.

Why does the reporter have a tube up his nose?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

"To accurately measure core temperature" the reporter have a tube up his nose

Explanation:

The tube seen entering the reporter's nose is a thermistor which is used to measure the core temperature of the body with very high levels of accuracy. The tube reaches the esophagus, which is one of the most preferred locations for measuring the core temperature. The core body temperature is the operating temperature of the human body and it refers to the temperature of the deeper structures of the body instead of the peripheral tissues.  The esophagus is close to the left ventricle of the heart, it has a deep body location and a quick response to any changes in the body temperature.

True-breeding pea plants with smooth peas are crossed with true-breeding pea plants with wrinkled peas. All individuals of the
NeTakaya

Mendel crossed the dominant smooth seeded pea plant (SS) with the recessive wrinkled seeded pea plant (ss). The F 1 generation produced the heterozygous smooth seeded plants with a genotype Ss. When two heterozygous pea plants (Ss) are crossed in the F2 generation represented by Ss x Ss, the gametes formed are S and s. In the second generation, out of the total offspring produced, 3 have the smooth seeded phenotype and 1 has wrinkled seed phenotype. Thus the phenotypic ratio is 3: 1 with one out of four plants being a wrinkled seeded pea plant.
