Answer:

Exceptions to Mendel's principles:

Does exceptions mean that Mendel was "wrong"? The answer is "NO". It means that we know more today about diseases, genes, and heredity than compared to what he expalined 150 years ago. Here I have summerized the exceptions with examples:

Incomplete dominance: When an organism is heterozygous for a trait and both genes are expressed but not completely.

Example: SnapDragon Flowers

Codominance: When 2 different alleles are present and both alleles are expressed.

Example: Black Feathers + Whites feathers --> Black and white speckled feathers

Multiple alleles: Three or more alternative forms of a gene (alleles) that can occupy the same locus.

Example: Bloodtype

Polygenic traits: more than one gene controls a particular phenotype

Example: human height, Hair color, weight, and eye, hair and skin color.

Which phrases describe radioactive elements? Check all that apply.

svp [43]

A radioactive element is an element which is subject to spontaneous degeneration of its nucleus followed by the emission of alpha, beta and gamma particles. All elements with atomic numbers greater than 83 are radioactive.

The given phrases that describe radioactive elements are-

They have a consistent number of particles - the particles are alpha, beta and gamma particles.

They have a half-life that determines their rate of decay.

Explanation for other options:

Not all elements occur in nature. Radioactive decay rates may not be constant as the decay happens when a radioactive substance emits a particle. It is not possible to predict exactly when a given atom of a substance will emit a particular particle. When the radioactive element release energy and particles, it decays.

The gastric phase of gastric secretion is triggered by the:

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The entry of food into the stomach.

Explanation:

Gastric secretion is triggered by the act of eating which is called as reflex phase and the entry of food into the stomach called a gastric phase. The entry of the food particles into the small intestine also helps to control the secretion of gastric called an intestinal phase.

The secreted fluid in the small intestine contains some ions, acids, etc such as pepsinogen, intrinsic factor, bicarbonate, hydrochloric acid, and mucus. The reflex phase or cephalic phase helps to stimulate parasympathetic neurons that release acetylcholine chemical, then it produces the higher secretion of gastric juice.
