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!

Simora [160]

The answer is A. anther and ovary.

The female part of an angiosperm flower is called a pistil and it consists of a style, stigma and ovary. The male part of an angiosperm flower is called a stamen and it consists of an anther and corolla. Thus, among all choices, choice A is the answer.

Choice B - anther is the male part of the flower, but sepal is a protective part of the flower and not reproductive.

Choice D - stigma is the female part of the flower, but sepal is a protective part of the flower and not reproductive.

Choice C - "vary" is not a word, but it is a mistake and it should be "ovary,"  the answers could be both choice A and C.

1. How does the body adjust to a higher altitude?
Anni [7]

During acclimatization over a few days to weeks, the body produces more red blood cells to counteract the lower oxygen saturation in blood in high altitudes. Full adaptation to high altitude is achieved when the increase of red blood cells reaches a plateau and stops.Heart rate is controlled by the two branches of the autonomic (involuntary) nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). ... At the beginning of exercise, your body removes the parasympathetic stimulation, which enables the heart rate to gradually increase.
