A pedigree chart is a diagrammatic representation showing the occurrence and appearance of phenotypes of a particular gene/traits and its ancestors from one generation to the next establishing relationships between individuals in a family.

Using the letter A for a dominant allele and a for a recessive allele, the genotype of individual I-1 is Aa.

  • In the key pedigree nomenclature, an individual marked with the black ink is affected with the trait (and this trait is dominant - A).
  • Looking at the F1 generation, there are males affected and females as well.
  • For inheritance of the trait, just one copy is enough to become affected.
  • Therefore, the male parent is heterozygous for the trait and the female normal (aa) to enable the production of both affected and non-affected individuals.

The body monitors the levels of oxygen in the blood to regulate breathing. Isabel is running in a marathon and is near the finis

The chronological order of the response brought about by the nervous system is as follows.


1. Sensory receptors in the arteries detect low oxygen levels.

2. Sensory neurons generate an impulse.

3. The central nervous system relays an impulse to certain brain regions.

4. The brain sends signals through motor neurons.

5. Isabel's breathing rate increases.


The response to a stimulus is called a reflex action and the pathway traveled by the reflex action is called the reflex arch. A reflex action is an automatic involuntary response to a stimulus which minimizes any damage to the body. During conditions of low levels of oxygen in the body, the receptors detect the stimulus of low oxygen levels which could pose a threat to the individual and sensory neurons generate an impulse. It reaches the central nervous system and then the brain. In turn, brain sends signals through the motor neurons that carry a message and help in increasing the breathing rate of Isabel.
