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.
Absorbing CO2 into the blood is a part of the respiratory system!
Answer:
Option B.
It is because the ocean near Portland moderates the temperature.
Explanation:
- The areas that are near to ocean have the moderate temperatures even in the hot seasons.
- Portland has the pacific ocean near to it, so the ocean current regulates the temperature there. But Minneapolis lacks ocean near it, so the summer is more hotter in Minneapolis.
- Ocean is capable of counteracting the rough distribution of radiation due to solar that reaches the Earth's surface.
<h2>
The correct answer is explained below:</h2>
Explanation:
- According to the question, free ear lobes are dominant over attached ear lobes.
- Let the allele for free ear lobes be represented by F.
- Let the allele for attached ear lobes be represented by f.
- The genotype of the homozygous recessive woman (mother) having attached ear lobes is : ff.
- The gamete produced by the woman is: f.
- The genotype of the heterozygous man (father) with free earlobes is: Ff.
- The gametes produced by the man are: F and f.
- Mating the man with the woman we get the following offspring,
F f
f Ff ff
Phenotype Free ear lobe Attached ear lobe
- The genotype and the phenotype of the probable children obtained is represented in the Punnett square above.
- The probability that the parents would produce children with attached ear lobes is =
.
