When exposed to bright sunlight, some people involuntarily sneeze. This reaction is known as a photic response. It is controlled

by a single gene with two alleles, H and h.A man and a woman who sneeze when exposed to bright sunlight are both heterozygous for the photic response trait.

Answer:

dominant-recessive

Explanation:

Photic sneeze reflex is an autosomal dominant or dominant-recessive disorder that means that person having only a single dominant allele of the gene of trait will suffer from the disorder irrespective of the sex.

As mentioned in the question, the Photic sneeze reflex disorder is a condition in which a person, when exposed to bright sunlight,involuntarily sneeze.

Since the disorder is autosomal dominant, it means that A man and a woman who sneeze when exposed to bright sunlight can both be heterozygous for the photic response trait. Therefore, if one of the if one parents is affected, there are 50% chances that the child will inherit syndrome and be effected.

If you want to better understand the pattern of autosomal dominant or dominant-recessive disorders, please see attached image.

Hope it helps!

Please help if you can answer all but if not at least 2 of them thx.
BartSMP [9]

Answers are in bold.

1. Energy from the sun is transferred to Earth's surface. Some of that energy is then transferred to the air above the surface.

2. The closer a location is to the equator the more energy it receives from the sun. Therefore a location's air temperature is affected by its distance from the equator.

3. An effect may have more than one cause. These may be linked into a chain of causes and effects.

Choose the appropriate term to fill in the sentence: when mrs. m ate, her intestinal contents became __________ to her blood. he
KonstantinChe [14]
<span>The answer to this question would be: hypertonic, hypotonic

After eating, the intestine is filled with food that will be digested. Food that digested will turn into a much smaller unit of carbohydrate, amino acid and fatty acid that will cause the intestine to have hypertonic solution compared to the blood. This will induce diffusion of some molecule to the intestinal cell, and then to the blood.</span>

xenn [34]
I’m pretty sure flowers, when they are buds, are protected by leaf-like structures called “sepals.” All of the sepals collectively are called a calyx. They protect the bud and are behind the actual flower petals when it blooms. Hope this helped.
