Answer:

All options are correct

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the ability of body to maintain stable internal environment. This is possible only when all the internal body organs and systems are performing well. In order to achieve such conditions, all functions are to be maintained at cellular level such as food ingestion, digestion, excretion, material exchange, reproduction, obtaining energy from mitochondria etc.  

If any of these functions is destabilized at cellular level due to change in external environment, then the overall internal stability of the body will get destabilized.  

Hence,  all the options are correct

Homeostasis can be defined as the state of maintenance of the constant internal conditions by the living organisms. The homeostasis is maintained by the body so that it may function properly. The homeostasis will be disturbed by the reduced intake of the food and water. Healthy intake of water and food is essential in maintaining the homeostasis of the body. The elevated or depressed blood pH along with extreme body temperatures will also disturb the homeostasis of the body making the person sick. Moreover, certain infectious organisms also alters the homeostasis of the body.

Hence, all the options are correct.

C) Fill in the Punnett square below based on the parents' genotypes. (6 points)
krek1111 [17]

As parent's genotypes are missing here, alleles cannot be estimated in offspring, but it is possible to use the example above to estimate it.

<h3>What is a Punnett square?</h3>

A Punnett square is a diagram used in genetics to estimate genotypic and phenotypic frequencies in offspring from a given genetic cross.

In order to estimate offspring allele frequencies, we need to know parental genotypes by means of a Punnett square.

For example, if both parents are heterozygous for a gene whose alleles are called 'A' and 'a', the Punnett square in offspring is:

        A         a

A     AA      Aa

a     Aa       aa

In this case, 50% of offspring will be heterozygous (genotype 1/2 Aa), whereas 25% will be homo-zygous dominant (1/4 AA) and 25% will be homo-zygous recessive (1/4 aa).

In conclusion, as parent's genotypes are missing here, thereby alleles cannot be estimated in offspring, but you can use the example above to estimate it.

How can one set of parents produce 19 children who all look different and unique but yet have some similar characteristics or tr
arsen [322]

Polygenic inheritance. The characteristics of a person aren't controlled completely by a single gene, but rather several genes that generally only make a small contribution to how the child turns out in the outcome. At one point there was a study that showed over 400 genes were linked to height, so imagine any other characteristics of a person. Environmental effects also serve a large purpose in how a child is to turn out. These children may all be growing up in the same environment, however that's not to say they all grow up the same. They could all be treated the same way and react differently to it, this counts both for physical and mental traits. All human's features such as eye colors, hair color and height are determined by several different genes. As an example, there are around 2 major eye color genes, however there are also around 14 different genes that actually contribute in determining a person's exact eye color. Some are bound to look the same, as they have the same parents, however, just because they have the same parents doesn't mean they all will look exactly alike.
