Based on the information below, answer the following three questions, assuming complete dominance.

Biology
1 answer:
scoray [572]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

100%

Explanation:

Let’s represent the dominant tongue rolling trait as: R

and the recessive trait as: r

A homozygous individual will have the same alleles i.e. RR (for dominant), rr (for recessive). Note that Rr is heterozygous.

An individual homozygous dominant for tongue rolling has the alleles RR

and an individual who cannot roll his tongue has rr, that is homozygous recessive .

To determine the trait of their offspring, we'll cross their traits

Crossing the two :

RR  x  rr

Rr, Rr, Rr, Rr

All the offspring will inherit the dominant R and the recessive r from both parents.

Therefore, there is a 100%  chance that the child will have a heterozygous genotype.

According to the all-or-nothing principle, Select one: a. the amount of time a neuron must "rest" in between firing episodes is
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is d) once the electrical impulse reaches a certain level of intensity (its threshold), it fires and moves all the way down the axon without losing any intensity.</em>

Explanation:

In the field of biology, the all-or-nothing law can be described as a principle which focuses on the strength with which a nerve or muscle fibre responds to a particular stimulus, this strength being independent of the strength of the stimulus. The functioning of the impulse is just like the trigger of a gun. The more the force of a stimulus, the more will be the intensity of the nerve impulse.

Based on your investigation, what challenges do scientists face when classifying a new fossil?
Tema [17]

One of the challenges that scientists face when classifying a new fossil is that any tiny detail is all that separates one species from another. Further exploration is required to identify another set of characteristics that may help in deciding which organism belongs or create a new class.

The hormone , which is secreted by the pineal gland, influences the sleep–wakefulness cycles.
KonstantinChe [14]
The hormone described above is the hormone Melatonin.
Melatonin is a hormone secreted by the pineal gland in the brain, which helps regulate other hormones and maintains the body's circadian rhythm. This rhythm is an internal 24 hour clock that plays a critical role when we fall asleep and when awake. When it is dark the body releases more melatonin.
