Answer:

This mutation will affect the fetus homoglobin"s affinty to bind oxygen molecule.Basically this mutation will decrease the affinity  of fetus hemoglobin for oxygen.

Explanation:

IN fetus gamma chains are synthesized, because the gamma chain has low affinity for 2,3 bisphosphoglycerate and high affinity for oxygen. As a result the fetus hemoglobin will always remain in oxyhemoglobin state or R state or Relaxed state.

                    This will ultimately result in the continuous supply of oxygen to the fetus for its normal functioning.

                If beta chain or adult hemoglobin is synthesized in mammalian fetus the the fetus can suffer from hypoxia as 2,3 bisphosphoglycerate bind to the cavity of beta chain of hemoglobin containing postively charged groups to decrease the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen.

Answer:

Incomplete dominance

Explanation:

A phenotypic "blending" of two traits is referred to as incomplete dominance, indicating that neither trait is truly dominant over the other. Instead of one color overpowering expression of the other, both colors are expressed simultaneously.

Codominance suggests that both phenotypes are dominant, but cannot be expressed at the same time. The result of codominance would be regions of dominant red expression and regions of dominant white expression, resulting in spots rather than blending.

Solnce55 [7]
An argument.
An opinion is never correct nor incorrect they are all valid in their own right. So that eliminates b. It’s true that it can’t be proven to true or false however, some opinions have no evidence so they have no warrant to be proven or disproven. An argument however, is how you argue for what you believe in, you provide examples, to prove you’re right. To prove your opinion so I believe that D is the best option here.

olasank [31]

The supplementary fact panel is used for the dietary supplements. This supplement fact panel on the dietary supplements is similar to the nutritional fact panel, which is present on most of the packaged products. The supplementary fact panel denotes the information about the beverage and the benefits of the product are listed under it too.

Hence, the answer is 'nutritional facts on foods'.
