My doctor explained that Clomid works by "tricking the brain into thinking that estrogen levels in the body are low." She explai

ned that this is what leads to the extra stimulation of the ovaries to encourage eggs to be released. One of the references for Clomid said this happens because there is less negative feedback. Can you explain to me how this "trick" and the decreased negative feedback are related? Why would these factors lead to the stimulation of the ovaries?

Answer:

Clomid tricks the body because it tells the brain that estrogen levels are low, thereby leading to higher production of this hormone  

Explanation:

There are many types of hormones that are regulated by the negative feedback mechanism (where hormone feeds back to decrease its production). Clomid is a drug used to treat female infertility by making the body think that the concentration of estrogen is low, which induces the secretion of Follicle-stimulating (FSH) and luteinizing (LH) hormones by the pituitary gland. The estrogen hormone exerts negative feedback on the Gonadotropin-releasing (GnRH) hormone, which is responsible for the release of FSH and LH. High FSH levels stimulate the growth of follicles in the ovaries, which will be released during ovulation.

Each of two parents has the genotype green divided by brown​, which consists of the pair of alleles that determine eye color​, a
Liula [17]

Answer:

A)BB-Bg-Bg-GG

B)The probability is 25%

C)The probability is 75%

Explanation:

In order to solve this you just have to create a punnet square, where the parents are shown to both have brown and green coloured eyes genes, so it would be like this:

               Mother:      Brown                                 Green

Father↓  

Brown                      Brown-Brown                 Brown-Green

Green                      Brown-Green                  Green-Green

As the instructions say that if any kid had one green allele that would be the dominant, only the Brown-Brown will show the fenotype, so there´s 1/4 chance to happen, or 25%, the other probability of having green eyes is 3/4 or 75%
