Answer:
The correct answer is c. production of white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets.
Explanation:
Hematopoiesis is the formation of all types of blood cellular components and components of plasma like white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets by hematopoietic system which involves the bone marrow, liver, and spleen.
First, the hemopoietic stem cell divides into common myeloid progenitor and common lymphoid progenitor. From myeloid progenitor RBC, platelets, basophils, eosinophils, neutrophils, and macrophages are formed.
Common lymphoid progenitor gives rise to T- lymphocytes, B- lymphocytes, and natural killer cells. Therefore the correct answer is c. production of white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets.

Complete question:
A sample of butterflies contained 50% yellow-winged individuals and 50% black-winged individuals. In this species, wing color is determined by a single gene with two alleles, and the allele for black is dominant. Which of the following statements about the allele frequencies in the sample would most likely be true? Do not assume that this sample was obtained from a population in genetic equilibrium.
a)The frequency of the yellow allele is greater than that of the black allele.
b)The allele frequency of yellow is 3 times the allele frequency of black.
c)The allele frequency of yellow is twice the allele frequency of black.
d)The allele frequencies of black and yellow are equal.
e) The allele frequency of black is greater than the allele frequency of yellow.
2.Now assume that the population of butterflies sampled in question above is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Also assume that the sample is random and large enough that the allele frequencies in the sample equal the allele frequencies in the population. What is the frequency of the allele for a) yellow wings in the population? Assuming Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in question 1, what would the correct answer be and why?
Answer:
- a)The frequency of the yellow allele is greater than that of the black allele.
- f(b) = q = 0.71

Answer:
Atherosclerosis affects arteries, these blood vessels are elastic and flexible in order to allow good blood circulation
Explanation:
The blood vessels are classified into three types: arteries, veins, and capillaries. An artery is a muscular blood vessel that is able to carry blood away from the heart to different parts of the body. Healthy arteries need to be elastic and flexible in order to adjust their diameter and thus control blood flow by maintaining blood pressure. Arteriosclerosis is a chronic disease caused by the accumulation of fatty substances (especially cholesterol) in the artery walls, thereby difficulting blood circulation by thickening and hardening these walls.
