Answer:

See the attached for the Punnet square

Likelihood of their child having short eye lashes - 50% or 1/2

Explanation:

Let the allele for eye lashes be represented by E. Homozygous genotype will be EE (for long eye lashes) or ee (for short eye lashes) while heterozygous genotype will be Ee. Assuming long eye lashes allele E is dominant over shor short eye lashes e:

Heterozygous man marries a short eye lashes woman: Ee   x   ee

Ee  x  ee = Ee (long lashes), Ee (long lashes), ee (short lashes) and ee (short lashes.

<em>That is, 50% or 1/2 of the offspring will have long eye lashes while the remaining 50% or 1/2 will have short eye lashes.</em>

Describe and explain how blood flows from the foot to the lungs.
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

lungs:

The blood first enters the right atrium.

The blood then flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle.

When the heart beats, the ventricle pushes blood through the pulmonic valve into the pulmonary artery.

The pulmonary artery carries blood to the lungs where it “picks up” oxygen.

It then leaves the lungs to return to the heart through the pulmonary vein.

The blood enters the left atrium.

It drops through the mitral valve into the left ventricle.

The left ventricle then pumps blood through the aortic valve and into the aorta. The aorta is the artery that feeds the rest of the body through a system of blood vessels.

Blood returns to the heart from the body via two large blood vessels called the superior vena cava and the inferior vena cava. This blood carries little oxygen, as it is returning from the body where oxygen was used.

The vena cavas pump blood into the right atrium and the cycle begins all over again.
