As mentioned in the question, wavy hair is a result of phenomenon of incomplete dominance where no allele is dominant over the other.

So if we say a man with curly hair (hh) marries a woman with straight hair (HH), we need to find out will their kids have straight hair or not.

Let us cross them:

Parents:                                      hh X HH

Gametes:                                    h : h and H :H

Offspring:                                hh: Hh: hH: HH

Probability of children with straight hair (HH) = 25 %

Probability of children with curly hair (hh)  =      25%

Probability of children with wavy hair =              50 %

So there is a chance of 25 % that their kids can have straight hair.


Hope it helps!

How could the tomato plants response to being eaten by a hornworm caterpillar be described as a function of homeostasis
sesenic [268]

Answer:

First, it's important to get clear on the meaning of Homeostasis.

In simple terms, it refers to the capacity of a living thing (plant or animal) to react or behave in such a way that enables it to continue to survive irrespective of changes in its immediate environment.

       

Explanation:

In humans, the body has a system which reacts to the external stimuli of temprature. When the weather is hot, the brain through a sequence of electrical and chemical signals tells the skin to open up the pore, then we experience venting of sweating which cools the body and regulates internal heat. This is an instance of homeostasis.

This does not mean that the plant or animal is completely immune to such external changes.

In the case of the tomato plant, the hair on the leaves and stem of the plant is an example of Homeostatic responses which have evolved over the years to discourage predators such as the hornworm caterpillar from defoliating the plant.

Cheers!
