Answer:

hypothalamus; homeostasis

Explanation:

The hypothalamus is located at the base of the brain, below the thalamus and above the pituitary gland and is about the size of an almond. It is divided anatomically and physiologically into three parts: anterior, middle and posterior.

The hypothalamus coordinates most endocrine functions, exerting direct action on the pituitary gland and indirect action on other glands such as adrenal, sexual gonads, thyroid and mammary glands. It also acts on regulating temperature, appetite, thirst, sleep cycle and autonomic nervous system.

From this we can conclude that the hypothalamus in the brain contributes to maintaining the body a stable internal physiological state called homeostasis.

The theory is most likely A) Valid. If a group of authorized scientists agreed on the theory, it would be valid. It would most likely be unreliable if it was only one scientist working alone and biased. If you don't have a group of scientists, the theory most likely won't be true because it hasn't been tested many times.

The genes R, E and D are independently assorting and control production of red pigment as follows (recessive alleles are not fun

Alona [7]

Answer:

1/8

Explanation:

An individual must have all three dominant alleles to be red, in homozygosis or heterozygosis (R_E_D_).

<u>The parental cross was:</u>

RREEDD x rreedd

F1: RrEeDd

<u>The test cross</u> is between the RrEeDd indiviudals and homozygous recessive rreedd.

The genes assort independently, so we can use Mendel's law of segregation to predict separately for each gene the proportion of the offspring that will have the dominant alleles.

1/2 Rr

1/2 rr

1/2 Ee

1/2 ee

1/2 Dd

1/2 dd

Genes are independent, so the probability of having a R_E_D_ offpsring is calculated by multiplying the individual probabilities of having a dominant allele for each gene:

1/2 (Rr) × 1/2 (Ee) × 1/2 (Dd)= 1/8
