Answer:
the drug was pulled from the market because of the evidence that it was a(n) <u>teratogen</u>
Explanation:
Teratogens are drug or other agents that cause physical or functional bnormalities in fetuses that are exposed to such agents. A typical example is alcohol. The degree of the abnormality on the fetus depends on a number of factors which are:
- the type of agent
- the developmental stage of the fetus
- the duration of exposure
- the concentration of teratogenic agent being exposed to
Answer:
Earth's atmosphere is a layer of gases surrounding the planet Earth and retained by the Earth's gravity.
Explanation:
It contains roughly 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen 0.97% argon and carbon dioxide 0.04% trace amounts of other gases, and water vapor. This mixture of gases is commonly known as air.
Mendel crossed the dominant smooth seeded pea plant (SS) with the recessive wrinkled seeded pea plant (ss). The F 1 generation produced the heterozygous smooth seeded plants with a genotype Ss. When two heterozygous pea plants (Ss) are crossed in the F2 generation represented by Ss x Ss, the gametes formed are S and s. In the second generation, out of the total offspring produced, 3 have the smooth seeded phenotype and 1 has wrinkled seed phenotype. Thus the phenotypic ratio is 3: 1 with one out of four plants being a wrinkled seeded pea plant.
