Answer:
So that in a guinea pig cross in the offspring the recessive trait —long hair— can be observed in 25%, the most probable genotype of the parents is heterozygous Ss.
Explanation:
In guinea pigs, for the characteristic<u> hair length, short hair is the dominant allele and long hair is the recessive one</u>.
In order for 25% of the offspring to express the recessive characteristic, the parents must have a recessive genotype, which can be seen in Punnett's Square:
P: <u>Ss X Ss
</u>
<em>Alleles S s
</em>
<em>S SS Ss
</em>
<em>s Ss ss
</em>
Where the offspring is:
- <em>50% Ss with short hair phenotype
</em>
- <em>25% SS with short hair phenotype
</em>
- <em>25% ss whose phenotype would be long hair.
</em>
According to this, heterozygous parents for the characteristic long hair in guinea pigs have a 25% chance of having offspring with long hair.
Answer:
6.7 minutes
Explanation:
In a solid such as rock, the primary wave can travel at 5 km/sec; it would take 400 seconds, or about 6.7 minutes to travel 2,000 km.
In response to a notification of a <u>decrease</u> in blood pH by the nervous system, the brain sends signals to the external intercostal muscles and the diaphragm.
<h3>What is
blood pH?</h3>
Blood pH can be defined as a measure of the molar concentration of hydrogen ions that are present in the blood of a living organism, with respect to its acidity, neutrality or alkanlity (basicity).
In response to a notification of a <u>decrease</u> in blood pH by the nervous system, the brain would send signals (impulses) to the external intercostal muscles and the diaphragm through its respiratory center, so as to help the living organism increase its breathing rate and the volume of its lungs during inhalation.

D. The factors for heredity called alleles
DNA is an acid in the chromosomes in the center of the cells of living things. DNA determines the particular structure and functions of every cell and is responsible for characteristics being passed on from parents to their children.
An allele is a viable DNA coding that occupies a given location on a chromosome.
