Answer:

Ego

Explanation:

In 1923, Sigmund Freud's personality theory was structured into three different parts viz: Id, ego and superego

The id is the instinctive and unconscious part of the personality which responds directly to urges, needs and desires. The id operates on the pleasure principle that every wishful impulse should be satiated instantly regardless of the resulting effect.

The ego is the part that mediates between the unreasonable id and societal beliefs. It is the reasoning and decision-making component of the psyche.

The superego is the part that acts as a self critical conscience, reflecting the social standards that has been learnt

In this scenario involving Cecil, the id part of his personality is responsible for the sexual attraction to his English teacher but the ego part of his personality is making him realize that is socially unreasonable for his teacher to respond to his sexual advances. His ego, which operates with the reality principle is restraining him from acting from his feelings in consideration of social realities.

Therefore, his ego is restraining him from expressing his feelings of sexual attraction (Id) considering societal consequences.

Complete question:

If the recessive allele for cystic fibrosis is represented as c, classify the following genotypes as homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or carriers: CC,Cc, and cc. State which one has the phenotype of cystic fibrosis.

Answer:

CC - homozygous dominant

cc - homozygous recessive

Cc - carriers

cc will have the phenotype

Explanation:

Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disorder that affects the production of mucus in the body, primarily affecting the lungs and digestive system.

Because it is autosomal recessive, an affected individual needs to inherit 2 copies of the faulty gene. The presence of just one normal copy of the gene is sufficient not to cause the disease

In genetics, the dominant allele is usually displayed as a capital letter and the recessive as a small letter. Homozygous means someone has 2 copies of the same allele, heterozygous means they have different alleles. Therefore, CC - homozygous dominant, cc - homozygous recessive, and Cc - carriers. Only those with a cc genotype will be affected, as the presence of one dominant allele is enough to block the phenotype
