Answer:

Gigantism

Explanation:

Gigantism

This is an unusual form of growth and stature as there is hypersecretion of growth hormone (GH), somatotropin prior to puberty. This will cause a further overgrowth of all the body tissues. This condition can be triggered by an anterior pituitary adenoma. It is yet to be ascertained if a genetic link can be the cause.

In Gigantism, there is unusual and increased growth, mainly of the long bones, since epiphyseal closure is not active. This situation causes poor Sexual and mental developments.

If a red-flowering plant was crossed with a white-flowering plant what would the phenotypes of the offspring be?
dem82 [27]
Well if both are dominate colors the phenotype of the offsprings would be pink or spotted. if the red flowering plant was dominate and the white flowering plant is recessive then the phenotype would be 100% red, they would just be the carrier of the white color. if the white flower is dominate and the red is recessive the flowers phenotype would be 100% white, but be carriers of the red color.
