Answer:

Polygenic inheritance

Explanation:

Polygenic inheritance occurs when a genetic trait is regulated by more than one genes. All the alleles of these genes together determine the phenotype of the organism for the polygenic trait. Here, the phenotype is regulated by the total number of dominant alleles for all the genes that regulate a polygene trait.

For example, human skin color is a polygenic trait. The final phenotype depends on the total number of dominant alleles of all the genes that regulate the skin color in human.

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

C) Nucleic Acid

D) Capsid

Explanation:

A virus is structure that is dependent on a living host to replicate itself. Viruses are majorly pathogenic in nature and have a structure that is made up of two parts namely: nucleic acid and capsid.

The nucleic acid, which can either be RNA or DNA holds the genetic information of the virus while the capsid is a protein coat that enclosed and protects the virus' genetic material. The capsid is also used during the infection life cycle of a virus where it helps the virus to attach to receptor cells on the host's cell membrane.

Hunger researchers initially assumed that the _____________ was a brain region responsible for initiating hunger and eating beca
qaws [65]

Answer:

Lateral Hypothalamus

Explanation:

According to the hunger researchers' initial assumption lateral hypothalamus is that part of the brain which regulates intake of food and metabolical activities like metabolical regulation of peptides like  the orexins melanin-concentrating hormone. It is that part of the brain that plays a key role in the ingestive behavior regulation.

The lateral hypothalamus system initiates physical and cognitive processes like it promotes arousal and feeding behavior, metabolism, regulates body temperature, BP, etc. and when stimulated it results in the feeding behaviour in animals as they begin to eat.
