Answer;
The pitch perception suggests that <span>different portions of the Basilar membrane are sensitive to sounds of different frequencies.

Explanation; 
</span><span>According to the place theory; different portions of the basilar membrane are sensitive to sounds of different frequencies.
The base of the basilar membrane responds best to high frequencies and the tip of the basilar membrane responds best to low frequencies. Therefore, hair cells that are in the base portion would be labeled as high-pitch receptors, while those in the tip of basilar membrane would be labeled as low-pitch receptors.</span>

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The pitch perception theory suggests that the basilar membrane of the ear responds differently to the different sound frequency.

The base of the base of the this membrane responds best to the high frequency and the low frequency sound is responded by the tip of the basilar membrane.

The hair at the base is best suited for high pitch receptors and tip of the hair are high frequency receptor.

The correct answer is option B

mash [69]

In humans, the immediate result of a blockage in one ureter would be to decrease the amount of urine entering the bladder.

A condition which occurs as a consequence of blockage in one or both of the ureters is called ureteral obstruction.

Ureters are tubes, part of the urine system that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder.

Ureteral obstructions might be due to ureteral stones, tumors, swelling of the ureter wall.. Ureteral obstruction can cause complications such as urinary tract infections and kidney damage.

The wild-type color of horned beetles is black, although other colors are known. A black horned beetle from a pure-breeding stra
Kisachek [45]

One hypothesis that explains the result is : A) Two genes are involved with  12:3:1  epistasis, such that A_B_ and A_bb are black, aaB_ is brown,and aabb is green.

Explanation:

  • This is a case of Dominant Epistasis.
  • When two genes are involved and presence of dominant allele of one gene masks the effect of either allele of the second gene then the epistasis is termed as dominant epistasis.
  • In the given case black :brown: green ratio is approximately equal to  12:3:1.
  • Here presence of a dominant A allele that is responsible for the black colour masks the effect of either allele of B. Therefore A_B_ and A_bb produces black beetles
  • Again , absence of dominant A allows B to express itself and Brown beetles are produced thus aaB_ is brown.
  • When both the genes are present as recessive alleles, neither brown nor black colour is expressed and the beetles are green.Thus, aabb are green.
