These anatomical structures are the following:
1. The urine itself which serves as an antiseptic, washing potentially harmful bacteria out from the body during normal urination
2. The ureters join into the bladder in a manner designed to prevent urine from backing up into the kidney when the bladder squeezes urine out through the urethra.
3. The prostate gland in men that secretes infection-fighting substance.
4. The immune system defenses and antibacterial substance in the mucous lining of the bladder eliminate many organisms.
5. The vagina of a healthy women, it is colonized by lactobacilli, a beneficial microorganisms that maintain a highly acidic environment (low pH) that is hostile to other bacteria. It also produces hydrogen peroxide, which help eliminate bacteria and reduces the ability of Escherichia coli (E. coli) to adhere to vaginal cells that is the major bacterial culprit in urinary tract infection.
20. The answer is 1 (Precambrian)
21. The answer is 4 (Pennsylvanian)
22. The answer is 2 (Bony Fishes, Dinosaurs, and Mammals)
23. The answer is 2 (Reptiles)
The given question is incomplete as the genotype of the parents is not given, so the answer is providing in the followings case:
1. dominant parent and recessive parent
2. heterozygous parents
Answer:
1. dominant parent and recessive parent:
dominant parents can be represented by LL and recessive parent is represented by ll, so the gametes would be L, L and l, l.
so,
L L
l Ll Ll
l Ll Ll
so there are all offspring in heterozygous condition as we known one or two dominant allele masks the recessive allele for the trait so 100% offspring can fold their tongue.
2. heterozygous parents
In this case, parents have Ll genotype and gametes would be L and l for each parent so,
L l
L LL Ll
l Ll ll
In this case, one is pure dominant and two heterozygous whereas only one is recessive so, the phenotype of offspring that cant fol the tongue would be:
3/4 = 75%
