The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

a. The woman with stretch marks has a greater collagen-to-elastic fiber ratio.

b. The woman may have different gender babies.

c. The woman with less stretch marks has larger skin cells.

d. The woman without stretch marks has more cholesterol in her diet, which affects her cell membranes.

Answer:

The woman with stretch marks has a greater collagen-to-elastic fiber ratio.

Explanation:

The stretch marks on the hips, stomach and breast of pregnant women is a very common problem. These stretch marks appear pinkish in color which is very difficult to treat.

These stretch marks are the result of the collagen to elastin ratio which increases and stretches. This stretching happens due to the sudden or rapid increase in the weight of the body or the affected portion.

Thus, the selected option is correct.

The principal of Dominance states that
jeka94

Principle of Dominance was given by Sir Gregor Johann Mendel.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Principle of Dominance was given by Sir Gregor Johann Mendel as a conclusion of the monohybrid cross between the different characteristic pea plants. It says that in an organism which is heterozygous for a particular character, only the dominant trait is able to express as a phenotype, not the recessive one. In other words, the recessive allele is completely masked by the presence of the dominant allele. This leads to same phenotype of a homozygous dominant organism and a heterozygous organism.

To test the organism about its heterozygosity, the organism is led through a test cross where the organism is crossed with a recessive organism. If the F1 offsprings are all dominant, then the organism is homozygous dominant, and if the F1 offsprings are of half dominant and half recessive phenotype, then the organism is heterozygous.
