On the Pacific island of Guam, large herbivorous bats called "flying foxes" commonly feed on cycad seeds, a potent source of neu

rotoxins. The flying foxes do not visit male cones. Consequently, which of the following statements should be accurate? A) Flying foxes disperse cycad seeds if the seeds sometimes get swallowed whole (in other words, without getting chewed). B) Flying foxes assist the beetles as important pollinating agents of the cycads C) Flying foxes are highly susceptible to the effects of the neurotoxins because the toxin attacks the action of the central nervous system. D) Flying foxes are attracted to cycad fruit and eat the enclosed seeds only by accident.

Flying foxes disperse the Cycad seeds if  the seed sometimes get swallowed whole.

Explanation:

  • Cycads are gymnosperms they do not have seeds enclosed in fruit. Therefore the bats are not attracted to cycad fruit.
  • If the bats were susceptible to neurotoxin then they must not have been the frequent feeders of cycad seeds. Biomagnification of neurotoxin in flying fox is a widely researched topic.
  • Beetles do not have an association with these bats thus the bats must not be assisting them as important pollinating agents.

Human blood type is an example of what where both the A and B blood types can be expressed semiagenously

Codominance is an inheritance pattern. Human blood type is an example of CODOMINANCE where both the A and B blood types can be expressed.

<h3>What is codominance?</h3>

Codominance refers to the inheritance pattern in which a phenotype expresses two alternative variants coded by two alleles inherited from each homozygous parent.

When two individuals, that are homozygous and different for a trait, are crossed they produce heterozygous individuals.

These progenies express both parental phenotypes, as it is an additive expression of their parents' genes. Both alleles are equally expressed.

The is not complete dominance in these cases.

In the case of blood, the I gene determines the blood type of a person.

→ I is <u>completely dominant </u>over the i recessive allele.

→ Allele I can be either IA and IB, which are <u>codominant</u>.

  • The person IAi expresses the A blood type ⇒ complete dominance
  • The person IBi expresses the B blood type ⇒ complete dominance
  • The person IAIB expresses the AB blood type  ⇒  codominance ⇒ both alleles are simultaneously expressed

Human blood type is an example of CODOMINANCE where both the A and B blood types can be expressed.
