Chromosomes are made of condensed coils of DNA. Genes are segments on a chromosome that carry the code for a specific trait. Alleles are contrasting forms of a gene. Dominant means that a particular trait will be visible. Recessive means that a trait will be hidden (unless it is paired with another recessive gene). A trait is how the gene is seen. For example, eye color is a trait.

Dual innervation refers to an organ receiving A) both sensory and motor nerves.B) both sympathetic and parasympathetic innervati

Talja [164]

Answer:

The correct option is B.

Explanation:

Dual innervation is a biochemical process by which an organ receives two different types of stimulation simultaneously. The principal function of dual innervation is to maintain the homeostatic balance of the body system. Dual innervation is brought about by two different systems, the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nerve systems. Although the actions of these two nerve systems are opposites to one another, they work together to bring balance to the body system. Without dual innervation the homeostatic system of the body can not be maintained.
