<span> COMPLETE DOMINANCE:
</span>
<span>Mendel concluded that some alleles are dominant and others are recessive. When one dominant allele is present, it's enough to make the recessive allele unexpressed (this is what happens in heterozygous individuals). In other words, it 'hides' or masks the recessive allele.

CO-DOMINANCE:

-a condition in which both alleles are dominant.
</span>
There are alleles that have the capacity of dominating at the same time, and when an organism is heterozygotic, both alleles are expressed.
For example, a white chicken(WW) crossed with a black chicken (BB):  100% of the offspring being WB. With this genotype, they have black feathers and white feathers.
It's not a blend of colors, but a case where both are expressing.

INCOMPLETE DOMINANCE:
-a condition with none of the alleles is dominant or recessive, so the traits blend in the phenotype.

Some alleles are not completely dominant, and when that's the case the phenotype of a heterozygous organism will be a mix between the phenotypes of its homozygous parents.

For example:
plant 1: RR -red
plant 2: rr- white

By crossing this plants we will obtain 100%  of the offspring with a color mix: pink.(genotype: Rr)
Red and white are not completely dominating so it results in a blend of colors.

SEX LINKED TRAITS

Sex chromosomes contain genes that determine the sex of a person. Two X chromosomes result in a female and one X plus a Y result in a male.

In those chromosomes, there are genes specific for each gender, and in those chromosomes, there are genes that code for certain traits- the sex-linked traits.
These traits will be inherited according to the sex chromosomes they receive from their parents.

kondaur [170]

Answer:

promote stomatal closure during drought stress.

Explanation:

Abscisic acid inhibits the growth and stomatal opening, specifically when the plants are exposed to some stress conditions. Abscisic acid also regulates the seed maturation and seed dormancy. ABA concentration in leaves increases multiple folds under drought conditions. Its accumulation in leaves promotes closure of stomata and prevents the water loss by transpiration. ABA is required to restore the turgor pressure under drought conditions by stimulation of stomatal closure.

Arachidonic acid (ARA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are two long-chain fatty acids necessary for the development of Multiple C
lana [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is: the nervous system, brain, and eyes.

Explanation:

Arachidonic acid (ARA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) are long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids that have great nutritional value, as they are omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids, respectively, meaning they are essential fats that cannot be produced by the body and, therefore, need to be part of the diet.

The consumption of ARA and DHA has been directly linked to the development of the brain and the retina, and the inclusion of these fatty acids in the nutrition of infants has been proven to be extremely beneficial to their growth.

Besides their functions in the development of the nervous system and the eyes, ARA and DHA play a role in maintaining a healthy immune system and preventing cardiovascular conditions.
