The ability to roll the edges of the tongue upward in a U-shape has been considered to be an inherited ability. The standard assumption is that tongue-rolling is a dominant allele at a single gene locus. Which of the following would cast doubt on this assumption?

A)A teacher reports that after testing her class on the ability to roll their tongue, with very little effort the non-tongue-rollers can learn to also roll their tongues.

B)A student who can roll his tongue has a mother and father, both of whom cannot. C)A student who cannot roll his tongue has a mother and father, both of whom can.

D)The non-tongue rollers who learn to roll their tongues and the student who can roll his tongue while his parents cannot are two situations that cast doubt on the heritability issue. The situation where a student cannot roll his tongue while his parents can is inconclusive.

E)Behaviors are not inherited, only structures are inherited.

Answer:

D)The non-tongue rollers who learn to roll their tongues and the student who can roll his tongue while his parents cannot are two situations that cast doubt on the heritability issue. The situation where a student cannot roll his tongue while his parents can is inconclusive.

Explanation:

This is because non tongue rollers who learn to roll their tongues appears to negate the idea of tongue rolling ability to be inherited ability, while also the fact that non tongue rollers having parents who cannot roll their tongues also prove the idea that tongue rolling ability is hereditary.

Hence, the option D)The non-tongue rollers who learn to roll their tongues and the student who can roll his tongue while his parents cannot are two situations that cast doubt on the heritability issue. The situation where a student cannot roll his tongue while his parents can is inconclusive, will surely cast doubt on the assumption, that rolling of tongue is an ability that is hereditary

<h3>What is Fetal Alcohol Exposure?</h3>

Alcohol use during pregnancy can result in stillbirth, miscarriage, and several physical, behavioral, and intellectual problems that can last a lifetime. Fetal alcohol spectrum disorders are the name given to these impairments.

Learning, behavior, joints, muscles, some organs, controlling emotions, and acquiring social skills are all areas where FASD can lead to issues. Issues with impulse control and hyperactivity in communication, such as speech issues

A disorder known as fetal alcohol syndrome affects children who were exposed to alcohol by their mothers when they were pregnant.

Arte-miy333 [17]

The following is missing for the question to be complete:

Rehearsing

Selective expectation

Selective memory

Active listening

Answer:    Selective expectation

Explanation:  Selective expectation refers to the psychological cognitive bias that makes one perceive what they want or think they need to perceive. In other words, what someone expects to be the outcome of his action, such as Eric, affects his perception of Sara. This means that what Eric biases to happen if he wants to talk to Sara about his problems and difficulties in the workplace, determines his perception of Sara, meaning in Eric's opinion that Sara won't want or have the time to listen to him. However, apart from the biased expectation of determining someone's, say Eric's, observations, they are influenced by the degree to which something stands out. If Sara is often unable to deal with employees' problems because of a job that works, then it is visible and highlighted as something that will determine one's, Eric's, perception of her more often as a manager who is uninterested in employee problems, than a manager is stuck business.

Perhaps, if Eric would approach his problems decisively and eloquently, and without any expectation in advance, but only with a determined attitude to present his problems, Sara as a top manager would probably listen to him.
