The doctor is recommending the intake of a serotonin agonist that will activate the <span>5-HT receptors. There are several agonists for these receptors being </span>Lorcaserin one of the most used ones in <span>weight-loss</span>, which is a selective agonist for 5-HT_{2C} receptors.

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Dominant: 20, Recessive: 20

Explanation:

The case shown in the question above explores simple Mendelian traits, since it shows a population where individuals of the same species present the dominant allele (R- red) and the recessive allele (r- white). We can project, then, that this population has an allele balance, where it is possible to find 20 red beans, which have the dominant allele and 20 white beans, which present the recessive allele.

Which organelle is responsible for wilting?
makkiz [27]

Vacuole is the answer.

Wilting is the loss of rigidity of non woody parts of plants and occurs when turgor pressure falls. 

The vacuole controls turgor pressure. Turgor pressure dictates the rigidity of the cell and is associated with the difference between the osmotic pressure inside and outside the cell.

When a plant receives adequate amounts of water, the central vacuoles of its cells swell as the liquid collects within them creating a high level of turgor pressure which helps maintain the structural integrity of the plant along with the support of the cell wall.

In the absence of enough water , central vacuoles shrink and turgor pressure is reduced  compromising the plant's rigidity so that wilting takes place.

are chromosome pairs, one from each parent, that are similar in length, gene position and centromere location
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

This definition suits that of "HOMOLOGOUS CHROMOSOMES"

Explanation:

Homologous chromosomes are similar pairs of chromosomes i.e. in length, gene positioning and centromere location (one from each parent) but not identical. Homologous chromosomes are not identical in the sense that, alleles on each pair may be different, resulting in genetic variation of the offspring.

Using humans as a case study, a karyotype (pictorial display of chromosomal arrangement) shows the complete set of chromosomes, which has two complete set (diploid). Each human cell contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, with each pair contributed by each parent i.e. 46 chromosomes in total. Every chromosome pair represents a set of homologous chromosome.
