In a cross of parents heterozygous for having freckles, the ratio of their offspring is (C) Seventy-five percent have freckles. Let allele F be dominant and allele f be recessive. Heterozygous parents will have genotype Ff. After they cross (Ff x Ff), the offspring will be: 1 FF (with freckles), 2 Ff (with freckles), and 1 ff (without freckles). So, 3 out of 4 children will have freckles. Since 3/4 = 0.75 = 75%, 75% of offspring will have freckles.

The answer to the question is C, the one that represents the ratio of their offspring is seventy-five percent have freckles. Since the genotypes of the posterity are FF, Ff, Ff, and ff. Since spots (capital F) are prevailing, and they are in 3 out of 4 of the genotypes, 75% will have spots.

compare the reproductive strategies of a short lived species such as a starfish and a long lived species such as a hippopotamus

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Starfish reproduce every winter by ejecting there eggs into the water, since they only live on average 35 years they reproduce about 35 times in their lifetime. Only a couple of the eggs will fertilize and turn into a Starfish.

Hippos are the only mammals in Africa that reproduce in water, Hippos reproduce in May and through June. Hippos usually live to around 40 to 50 years, and most hippos through May and June reproduce more than one time.

Explanation:

Hippos strategies of reproducing are better than Starfish.

What hormone released by the highlighted structures inhibits the secretion of FSH only?

soldi70 [24.7K]

Inhibin inhibits the secretion of FSH only.

<h3>What is the role of inhibin?</h3>

Inhibin is a protein mainly produced by the gonads.
In men it is produced by the Sertoli cells and it is produced by the granulose cells in women.
It negatively regulates the secretion of Follicle Stimulating hormone (FSH) from the pituitary gland.
FSH itself induces the production of inhibin for negative feedback.
Pituitary is a pea shaped endocrine gland present at the base of the brain. It is the major endocrine gland and controls growth, development and functions of other endocrine glands.
Hormone activin has opposite effect to inhibin. It enhances FSH biosynthesis and secretion.

How do these equations explain why the total amount of O2 and CO2 remains the same?

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

This constancy of the chemicals involved denotes that no particular reaction is taking place on the cells involved. For instance, during photosynthesis it would require CO2, H2O and photons to initiate the process. Thank you for your question. Please don't hesitate to ask in Brainly your queries.
