Answer:

.a. runs through the infundibulum

Explanation:

Generally hormones of the  hypothalamus(e.g gonadotropin -releasing hormones,growth hormone-releasing hormone)  do not enter general circulation before reaching the ant. pituitary gland. Rather  their transport   and material  exchange   from the hypothalamus to the ant. pituitary gland is shunted by  network of  blood capillaries,  in the    connective structure that directly linked  the hypothalamus with the ant. pituitary.

These network of blood capillaries    which  pass through the infundibulum at  the base of the fore brain is called  the hypothalamic-hypophyseal tract. it clinical significance in diseases spread  is that it may serve as the route of  metastasis  from    hypothalamus to reach the pituitary.

Anatomically the Infundibulum  or pituitary stalk  functions in maintaining  balance in  body water and electrolyte levels  of the body and also carry  out some  endocrine functions by allowing the transport of hypothalamic hormones(  e,g ADH, oxytocin  to  reach the post. pituitary gland

Answer: a. runs through the infundibulum

Explanation: The hypothalamus and the pituitary gland (hypophysis) are linked by a structure called the infundibulum. The infundibulum contains vasculature and nerve axons, these nerve axons have endocrine properties.

Why would it be important to know the possible genotypic and phenotypic ratios of different genetic crosses?
OleMash [197]
It’s important to know the possible genotypic and phenotypic ratios of different genetic crosses because the the phenotype shows what the offspring will physically look like what the genotype is what genes the offspring carries. phenotype doesn’t always show what alleles the offspring carries because if the offspring is heterozygous for the gene only the dominant allele shows and the recessive allele won’t be visible. the genotype can see what alleles the offspring carries, both dominant and recessive. knowing the genotype helps to know what alleles are passed on. if one of the parents have a genetic mutation that is passed on, the phenotype helps see what ration of offsprings will have the mutation visible and the genotype will help see what ratio of offsprings will pass on the allele for the mutation
