Answer:

The correct answer is option A: "the maintenance of homeostasis within the body system".

Explanation:

The pancreas secretes insulin and glucagon, hormones that work together for the maintenance of homeostasis within the body system. When the blood sugar level is low, the pancreas secretes glucagon to raise them. When the blood sugar level is high, the pancreas secretes insulin to lower them.

No muscle contraction will be observed.

<h3>What is the effect of calcium concentration on muscle contraction?</h3>

The concentration of calcium ions in the muscle cells help in contraction and relaxation of muscles fibers.

Release of calcium ions initiate muscle contraction.

Therefore, there will be no contraction of muscle if calcium ions are not transported out from the sarcoplasm.

Use the key to identify each species. Write the letter of each species (A to G) in the correct

sveticcg [70]

Dichotomous keys are useful to identify organisms according to their morphological traits. The given key provides enough macroscopic morphological traits to identify these Arachnida species.

-----------------------------------------------

A dichotomous key is a significantly useful tool to classify organisms. The key provides an easy and fast way for identification by describing different morphological traits, leading you to the correct taxonomic classification.

The key provides morphological descriptions about different taxonomic groups in an easy way to identify these traits in your individual.

The term dichotomous refers to how information is provided. You will always have two options (a and b, or 1 and 2), and you will have to choose one of them according to the characteristics of your organism.

In the exposed example, as the key provides morphological traits, we will separate the organisms into two groups:

the group that has the trait
the group that does not have it.

By recognizing each trait in each of the individuals, we will get to identify the species.

(a) Abdomen with a tail --------------------------- The only option is E

(b) Abdomen without a tail ---------------------- All the others A, B, C, D, F, G

2 ---Only for group A, B, C, D, F, G---

(a) Legs much longer than abdomen and cephalothorax ----------A and G

(b) Legs not much longer than abdomen and cephalothorax----- B, C, D, F

3 ---Only for group A, G---

(a) Hairs on the legs -----------------------------------The only option is A

(b) No hairs on the legs ------------------------------ G

4 ---Only for group B, C, D, F---

(a) Cephalothorax or abdomen segmented ----------------The only option is D

(b) Cephalothorax or abdomen not segmented ----------- B, C, F

5 ---Only for group B, C, F---

(a) Abdomen and cephalothorax of the same size --------The only option is F

(b) Abdomen and cephalothorax of different size -------B, C

6 ---Only for group B, C---

(a) Body covered with long hair ----------------------------------The only option is C

(b) Body not covered with hair ------------------------------------B

A → Tegenaria domestica

B → Ixodes hexagonus

C → Tyroglyphus longior

D → Chelifer tuberculatus

E → Abaliella dicranotarsalis

F → Poecilotheria regalis

G → Odielus spinosus

A cleft chin is a dominant trait. One parent is heterozygous for cleft chin, and the other parent does not have a cleft chin. Wh

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

2 out of 4

Explanation:

Let the allele for cleft chin be represented by A, while the alternate recessive version would be a.

A parent that is heterozygous for cleft chin would have the genotype Aa.

A parent without cleft chin would have the genotype aa.

Aa x aa

Aa Aa aa aa

Aa - cleft chinned = 2/4

aa - normal chin = 2/4

Thus, two out of every four (2/4) of their offspring would have cleft chin.
