Answer:

Answer is C.

Explanation:

A. The vessel length is pretty much constant. The body can't length or shorten blood vessels.

B. Blood viscosity is also fairly constant because the composition of blood cannot change quickly enough to change resistance as needed.

C. This is the main way resistance is controlled. The smooth muscle surrounding blood vessels can rapidly respond to hormonal or metabolic stimuli and contract/relax to adjust diameter.

D. Again, temperature is fairly constant in the body and would not be a good way to alter resistance.

Three linked autosomal loci were studied in cucumbers: fruit color (dark vs. light), tendril size (long vs. reduced) and fruitin

Zina [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Progeny observed in the experiment is calculated by adding all the progeny numbers observed in the :

TIME TO FRUIT TENDRIL SIZE FRUIT COLOR NUMBER

Normal normal dark 370

normal normal light 32

early normal light 971

early normal dark 28

early reduced dark 25

early reduced light 483

normal reduced light 36

normal reduced dark 810

TOTAL

PROGENCY 2755

2. The locus in the center is TIME TO FRUIT. Tendril size is at the beginning of the locus and the distance between the locus B and locus C is R2
