Mendel determined that for a given character(i.e. pea seed shape) an individual has two factors that these can exist in two form

s (R or r). Today we would describe R and r as being:______.
a. different alleles of the seed shape gene.
b. different genes of the seed shape locus.
c. different genotypes of the seed shape character.
d. different loci of the seed shape gene.

Answer:

a. different alleles of the seed shape gene.

Explanation:

Mendel crossed different varieties of pea plants and he observed how phenotypic traits passed to the progeny. From these experiments, Mendel formulated the 'First Law of Segregation', where he observed that traits may exist in pairs that segregate (separate) at meiosis. During meiosis, i.e., gamete formation, these two factors separate from each other, thereby each gamete has the same probability of receiving either factor. Nowadays, we know that these two factors represent two different gene variants or 'alleles' for a given gene <em>locus</em>. Alleles can be classified into dominant or recessive as in the example above described, where the R factor (round) dominates on the r factor (wrinkled) to determine the seed shape.

Blood returning to the mammalian heart in a pulmonary vein drains first into the
NeTakaya

Answer:

(E) left atrium.

Explanation:

Pulmonary veins are veins that carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart (left atrium). These veins are part of the pulmonary circuit:

Venae cavae are a vessels (vena cava interior and superior) that carry deoxygenated blood from the body to the right atrium. From the right atrium through the tricuspid valve the blood goes into the right ventricle. Then, from the right ventricle through the pulmonary valve the blood goes into the main pulmonary artery which carries deoxygenated blood to the lungs (to recieve oxygen). Oxygenated blood from the lungs travels to the heart: two pulmonary veins from each lung to the left atrium.

What is the relationship between the food we eat and energy in the body.
gregori [183]
The food we eat is our energy. When we eat food, we need to digest it and the eaten food, once digested, serves as our energy that we use up for daily needs.(maybe wants like the gym or something) If we eat too much food, it will be stored and we will become overweight over time. If we don't eat enough, we will lose weight because we're not getting enough energy in our bodies, so our bodies cannot get enough energy from the food eaten, so it looks elsewhere for stored energy(our fat and muscle cells Hope this helped:)
