Feather color in budgies is determined by two different genes, Y for pigment on the outside of the feather, and B for pigment on

the inside of the feather. YYBB, YyBB, or YYBb is green; yyBB or yyBb is blue; YYbb or Yybb is yellow; and yybb is white. Two blue budgies were crossed. Over the years, they produced 22 offspring, five of which were white. What are the most likely genotypes for the two blue budgies?

Answer:

The two blue budgies are most likely to be yyBb each

Explanation:

there are 3 different scenarios possible for crossing blue budgies:

1) yyBB crossed with yyBB

this is not possible because it does not allow for the genotype yybb (white budgies)

2) yyBB crossed with yyBb

again, this cross will not yield the genotype yybb required for white budgies as given in the problem statement

3) yyBb crossed with yyBb

which leaves us with this option being most likely the genotype of the parent budgies who will have white budgies as offspring

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is option a. "hematopoietic (blood) cells, or the cells that give rise to mature blood cells".

Explanation:

Leukemias and lymphomas are two forms of blood cancer. The difference between leukemias and lymphomas, is that leukemia affects the blood and bone marrow, and lymphoma affects only the lymph nodes. Wherever the location affected by these two diseases, Leukemias and lymphomas arise from the transformation of hematopoietic (blood) cells (or the cells that give rise to mature blood cells) into hematologic malignancies.

The pituitary hormone that controls the release of glucocorticoids from the adrenal cortes is?
sergey [27]

Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH),controls the release of glucocorticoids from the adrenal cortex .

ACTH stimulates the adrenal cortex to produce glucocorticoids and adrenal androgens. Glucocorticoids, such as cortisol, function by maintaining blood glucose levels during fasting, preparing the body during physical and emotional stress, preventing inflammation, and suppressing the immune system.

Glucocorticoids are secreted by the middle region of the adrenal cortex. The principal glucocorticoid is cortisol, which increases blood glucose levels. The third group of steroids secreted by the adrenal cortex is the gonadocorticoids, or sex hormones. These are secreted by the innermost region.
