6 0

Answer:

A) An early step in the path to thromboxanes is blocked by ibuprofen.

Explanation:

Eicosanoids are signaling molecules that are produced by oxidation of  arachidonic acid or other twenty-carbon essential fatty acid. Eicosanoids are involved in immune responses: they inhibit inflammation, allergy, fever, they also regulate pregnancy, childbirth, control cell growth..

Synthesis of  prostaglandins, prostacyclin and thromboxane (subfamilies of eicosanoids) is inhibited by aspirin and some anti-Inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen and naproxen.

Assuming dragon genetics follows the same rules as fruit flies, what ratio of genotypes would you expect if the genes were not l
andrew11 [14]

Assuming dragon genetics follow the same rules as fruit flies, we would get the same possible genotype for all 16 offspring provided that the genes are not linked.

Considering dragon genetics, flame eyes (F) are dominant to blue eyes (f) and burbling (B) is dominant to whistling (b).

Now, a dihybrid cross between two homozygous blue-eyed, whistling dragons will yield 16 offspring all with the same possible genotype .i.e. homozygous blue-eyed, whistling type.

Morgan through experiments on fruit flies observed that when the two genes in a dihybrid cross were situated on the same chromosome, the proportion of parental gene combination were much higher than the non-parental type.

He attributed this due to the physical association or linkage of the two genes and coined the term 'linkage' to describe the physical association of genes on a chromosome. The term 'recombination' is to describe the generation of non-parental gene combination.

The major organs which control acids and bases in the body are:
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

1. kidneys 2. Lungs 5. Pancreas

Explanation:

The body's balance between acidity and alkalinity in the human body is regarded as the acid-base balance which is measured on the basis of the pH and the concentration of carbon dioxide and bicarbonate in the blood. The organs that controls acid-base balance are lungs, kidneys and pancreas. Theses organs control blood pH by releasing carbon dioxide from the lungs because it is a waste product slightly acidic in nature and excreting excess of acids and bases from the body.
