Complete question:

Question: When crossing two individuals, the offspring display only one of the two traits found in parents. Which principle of Mendelian genetics is supported by this observation?

a) segregation

b) independent assortment

c) dominance and recessiveness

d) allele frequency

Answer:

c) dominance and recessiveness

Explanation:

According to Mendel's principle of dominance and recessiveness, the alleles of one gene may be dominant or recessive in nature. When present together, only the dominant allele is able to express itself. Therefore, a hybrid individual for a gene would express only the dominant phenotype. In the given cross, the progeny express only one of the two traits found in the parents. This means that the progeny is heterozygous for the trait and is expressing the dominant trait. The recessive trait is not expressed due to the presence of the allele for the dominant trait.

The given blank can be filled with medulla.  

The medulla also called the medulla oblongata is the segment of the brainstem that is factually the stem, which elongates from the brain. The medulla is positioned below the pons and above the spinal cord and is a major relay intersection for information conducted to and from the spinal cord and the brain. This section of the brain is a monitoring center for circulation and respiration.
