Explanation:

Patrick is a heterozygous dominant (he have one allele for pink body color and one allele for yellow body color

His wife Trisha is homozygous recessive (she have two alleles for yellow body color)

When they mate their is a 50% chance that the offspring will has the dominant allele from his father and a 50% chance that the offspring will has the recessive allele from his father and his phenotype will be his father allele in both cases

Psychological disorder that impairs bodily function when the body seems to be structurally normal
Marat540 [252]
A functional disorder is a medical condition that impairs normal functioning of bodily processes that remains largely undetected under examination, dissection or even under a microscope. At the exterior, there is no appearance of abnormality. This stands in contrast to a structural disorder (in which some part of the body can be seen to be abnormal) or a psychosomatic disorder (in which symptoms are caused by psychological or psychiatric illness). Definitions vary somewhat between fields of medicine.

Generally, the mechanism that causes a functional disorder is unknown, poorly understood, or occasionally unimportant for treatment purposes. The brain or nerves are often believed to be involved. It is common that a person with one functional disorder will have others.

1. What is biotechnology?
rjkz [21]

Answer:

1: the exploitation of biological processes for industrial and other purposes, especially the genetic manipulation of microorganisms for the production of antibiotics, hormones, etc.

2: Genetic engineering, the artificial manipulation, modification, and recombination of DNA or other nucleic acid molecules in order to modify an organism or population of organisms.

3: Genetically Modified Organisms

4: Selective breeding is a form of genetic modification which doesn't involve the addition of any foreign genetic material (DNA) into the organism. Rather, it is the conscious selection for desirable traits.

5:Selective breeding (also called artificial selection) is the process by which humans use animal breeding and plant breeding to selectively develop particular phenotypic traits (characteristics) by choosing which typically animal or plant males and females will sexually reproduce and have offspring together.

6:The use of genetic engineering and the creation of genetically modified crops has resulted in many benefits for the agricultural world. ... By modifying crops so that they are resistant to diseases and insects, less chemical pesticides have to be used to combat diseases and pests.

7:It is known that the main concerns about adverse effects of GM foods on health are the transfer of antibiotic resistance, toxicity and allergenicity. There are two issues from an allergic standpoint.

Two consecutive even positive integers have a product of 2,400. What is the smaller of the two numbers?
Flura [38]

Answer: <u>Option C; 48</u>

Explanation:

Let one number = x

Other number = x+2

According to question-

[x] [x+2] = 2400

x^{2} + 2x - 2400 = 0

Solving this equation, we get-

[x - 48] [x - 50 ] = 0

x = 48 or 50

Since 48 is the smaller number here, answer is option C
