Drosophila may be monosomic for chromosome 4, yet remain fertile. A recessive mutant for bent bristles is identified on chromoso

me 4. Determine the genotypes of the F1 and F2 progeny for the following crosses.
The following cross is conducted of true-breeding adult flies: monosomic bent bristles x diploid normal bristles. Select the two F1 genotypes that will be produced from this cross
a. -/b+
b. -/b
c. b/b
d. b/b+
e. b+/b+

The answers are:
<span>a. -/b+
</span><span>d. b/b+</span>

b+ - the allele for normal bristles
b - the allele for bent pristles

Monosomic means there is only one instead of two alleles in a gene locus.
So, the parents' genotypes are:
<span>monosomic bent bristles: -/b
</span><span>diploid normal bristles: b+/b+

</span><span>The following cross is conducted of true-breeding adult flies:
Parents' phenotype: monosomic bent bristles x diploid normal bristles
Parents' genotype:                      -/b                   x              b+/b+
F1 generation:                       -/b+            -/b+                 b/b+            b/b+</span>

Which type of change was seen in the ecosystems that were affected by the 1988 fires in Yellowstone Park
charle [14.2K]

Answer:SECONDARY SUCCESSION Explanation:Secondary succession can happen after primary succession or independently of primary succession.An example of Secondary Succession by stages:

1. An area of growth.

2. A disturbance, such as a fire, starts.

3. The fire destroys the vegetation.

4. The fire leaves behind empty, but not destroyed soil.

5. Grasses and other herbaceous plants grow back first.

6. Small bushes and trees begin to colonize the public area.

7. Fast-growing evergreen trees and bamboo trees develop to their fullest, while shade-tolerant trees develop in the understory.

8. The short-lived and shade-intolerant evergreen trees die as the larger deciduous trees overtop them. The ecosystem is now back to a similar state to where it began.

(Hope this helps)

When blood glucose levels decrease, in between meals, during fasting or from starvation, increased levels of ________ help to in
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

B. Glucagon

Explanation:

Glucagon is a pancreatic hormone, secreted by the alpha cells of islets of Langerhans. Whenever the blood glucose level falls, glucagon is released to increase the blood glucose levels. This function of glucagon is quite opposite to the function of insulin and hence both are antagonistic hormones. Insulin reduces the blood glucose where as glucagon increases the blood glucose.

Glucoagon is large polypeptide of 29 amino acids. Since it helps in increasing the blood glucose homeostatic levels it is called as hyperglycemic hormone. It does so by stimulating certain processes such as:

- Stimulating Glycogenolysis i.e breakdown of glycogen to release more glucose from liver.  

- Stimulating Gluconeogenesis i.e. synthesis of glucose from non-carbohydrate sources like proteins.

- Glucagon inhibits the process of glycogenesis i.e. synthesis of glycogen, the storage form of glucose.
