ratios of offspring from a cross between Yy (heterozygous) and yy (homozygous recessive) individuals?
a. Genotype: ½ Yy : ½ yy; Phenotype: ½ yellow : ½ green
b. Genotype: all Yy; Phenotype: all yellow

Answer: A. Genotype: 1/2 Yy; 1/2 yy. Phenotype: 1/2 Yellow; 1/2 Green.

Explanation: The answer lies in Punnett´s Square. A visual representation of Mendelian inheritance. Dominant genes always express when an organism presents them. Recessive genes express when both alleles contain the recessive gene. A heterozygote contains different alleles for the same gene (Yy). A homozygote contains the same alleles for the same gene (YY/yy), which can be a Dominant (YY) or Recessive (yy) Homozygote.

Answer:

1) Skull and Vertebral column

2) Meninges

3) Cerebrospinal fluid.

Explanation:

Central Nervous system:

CNS is the abbreviation of Central Nervous system. CNS controls the whole body functions so it is the most important component of the body. CNS consist of two parts 1) Brain and 2) Spinal cord

Both of these organs are very important and hence need to be protected. Nature provided these organs with certain protective mechanisms these includes

1) Skull and Vertebral column:

Skull is present around brain and vertebral column is present around spinal cord. These structure provides mechanical support to soft parts of CNS.

2) Meninges:

These are the membranes that provide antiseptic environment to the brain and hence protect it from microbes and other harmful substances.

3) Cerebrospinal fluid:

This fluid is present inside meninges which nourishes the brain and protect it from mechanical stresses.
