ANSWER: ECDYSONE

EXPLANATION: Ecdysone is produced and released from the prothoracic gland located at the prothorax of the insects, which act mainly to stimulates molting or ecdysis (i.e ex-sheating of old cuticle) in insects.

Moreover, the release of ecdysone to trigger molting and metamorphosis, is stimulated by PTTH .

Furthermore, in cases where juvenile hormone is absent, an insect will still metamorphose into the adult form.

Answer:

ecdysone

Explanation:

Ecdysone can be explained or known as a steroid hormone, which is being  secreted by prothoracic gland. And in its active form, stimulates metamorphosis and regulates molting in insects. It is also known to be steroid hormone and derived from cholesterol.

It should be understood that the hormone is able to carry out its activities, such as  molting and metamorphosis through its active metabolite 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E).

In conclusion, it should be understood that PTTH stimulates the release of ecdysone to trigger molting and metamorphosis.

How long does it take for a brain aneurysm to kill?
Amanda [17]
<span>This isn't a cancer question, but I know a man had one and he pretty much died within minutes of it rupturing. I also know a woman, that didn't die after hers leaked and caused a stroke. Drs spent quite a while "chasing" it around, keeping it at bay until they found the source of the bleed. She's home now and doing well. So I can say it kills Suddenly</span>

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

the trait with Mendelian inheritance shows segregation in the F2 generation.

Explanation:

Blending inheritance is the theory that the offspring inherits any characteristic that are intermediate between those of the parents.

However, Gregor Johann Mendel showed that this not true that hereditary substances from parents merge together in their offspring.

In the given question,

the offspring of true-breeding parents show an intermediate phenotype, although a trait such as flower color in snapdragons is determined by two alleles with incomplete dominance.

The difference is that the trait with Mendelian inheritance shows segregation in the F2 generation.
