The correct answer is "fiber".

Fiber is actually indigestible food products such as cellulose that aids in the digestion and bowel function. Fiber, first of all, limits the absorption of extra fats therefore preventing hypertriglyceridemia and eventually cerebrovascular and cardiovascular consequences. Fiber also limits glucose absorption controlling type II diabetes. Lastly, fiber also acts as protection in the colon by increasing the transit times of potentially carcinogenic substances found in food, therefore preventing colon cancer.

Answer:

Off-pump coronary artery bypass

Explanation:

In this heart bypass surgery a vein or artery from another part of the body is taken and used as a graft to replace the blocked coronary artery. The benefit of this type of surgery is that there is negligible chances of rejection of the graft because the graft has been taken from the same body. A surgical cut is made inside leg, between the ankle and groin and one end of the graft is attached to coronary artery whereas the other end to the opening of aorta.

Radial artery of wrist is also common graft in heart bypass surgery.

When you a red bird mates with a white bird mate all the offspring have pink feathers. What can best explain this observation?
MrRa [10]

Answer:

Incomplete dominance

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance is a type of non-mendelian inheritance pattern in which one allele of a gene is not dominant or recessive to the other allele, hence, both alleles combine to form a third intermediate phenotype, which is a blending of both parental phenotypes.

In this case, a red bird (RR) mates with a white bird (WW) to produce offsprings that have pink feathers (RW). This shows that the allele for red coloration is incompletely dominant to the allele for white coloration, hence, both combines to produce a PINK (RW) intermediate phenotype. This portrays incomplete dominance.
