<span>Endorphin. Endorphin are pepetide hormones secreted by the central nervous system and the pituitary gland. They inhibit the transmission of pain signals; they also produce a feeling of euphoria very similar to the ones produced by other opioids. Its 1 production is usually triggered by various human activities although they are produced in response to pain. Carrying out frequent exercise usually stimulates the release of beta-endorphin in the human brain known as runner's high. This is the probably the reason Mobombi could finish the race pain free.</span>

Which of the following is a dihybrid cross?a. RrMM Rrmmb. RRMM rrmmc. RrMm RrMmd. rrMM RRmme. RrMm rrmm
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

c. RrMm x  RrMm

Explanation:

A dihybrid genotype is the one that is heterozygous for two genes. Hence, a dihybrid cross is a cross between two individuals that are hybrid for alleles of two different loci.

Among the given examples, the cross RrMm x RrMm is a dihybrid cross. Here, both given genotypes are heterozygous or hybrid for two loci (both genotypes have one dominant and one recessive allele for both the genes under study, R and r; M and m).

This cross explains the inheritance of two loci or two genetic traits. Hence, it is an example of dihybrid cross.

African cichlids are a group of closely related fish species. There are at least 500 known species living in three small lakes.
Readme [11.4K]
The correct answer that would best complete the given statement above would be the term ADAPTIVE RADIATION. African cichlids are a group of closely related fish species. There are at least 500 known species living in three small lakes. Over time, specialized teeth and body colorations have evolved for each species in response to mutations and competition for food and mates. This change over time is an example of ADAPTIVE RADIATION. Adaptive radiation by definition, is <span>the diversification of a group of organisms into forms filling different ecological niches.</span>

Why are males more often affected by sex-linked traits than females?
Andre45 [30]

In homo sapiens(humans), males are the heterogametic sex meaning their sex chromosomes are not the same(=XY) while females are homogametic(=XX).

Sex linked traits or x linked traits are traits whose genes are present on the X chromosome. So if there is a recessive mutation in those genes, males will express that recessive trait. Basically males express everything that’s on their X chromosome because they only have 1, but females have 2 which helps “hide” the mutation and to not express the particular recessive trait.

That is why sex linked traits are more evident in males in the population and an example of that would be colorblindness.

Hope this helps:)

Stem color of tomato plants is known to be under the genetic control of at least one pair of alleles such that A- results in the
fredd [130]

Answer:

Genotype - AaMm

Phenotype - Heterozygous purple stem and fruit with  two locules

Explanation:

Given

Trait 1 - Recessive allele for green color stem is represented by a

and dominant allele for purple color stem is represented by  A

Trait 2 - Production of two locules in the tomato fruit is a dominant trait and is represented by "M" and production of multiple locules in the tomato fruit is a recessive trait and is represented by "m"

F1 cross is carried between tomato plant with purple stem and fruit with two locules (AAMM) and a tomato plant that have fruit with multiple locules and a green stem (aamm)

The following offspring will be produced

AM         AM         AM         AM

am AaMm AaMm AaMm AaMm

am AaMm AaMm AaMm AaMm

am AaMm AaMm AaMm AaMm

am AaMm AaMm AaMm AaMm

Genotype - AaMm

Phenotype - Heterozygous purple stem and fruit with  two locules
