There are choices for this question namely:

1 Cesarean section
2 Vaginal delivery with forceps extraction
3 Vaginal delivery with vacuum extraction
4 <span>Fetal scalp electrode
</span>
The correct answer is "cesarean section". In cesarean section, we are preventing the vertical transfer of the virus from the mother to the baby by bypassing the vaginal mucosa (which has secretions, potentially with high viral load). Fetal scalp electrode, on the other hand, is not a method of delivery.

Pigmented eyes (P) are dominant to non-pigmented (p), and dimpled chins (D) are dominant to Non-dimpled chins (d). A pigment-eye
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

PpDD and PpDd

Explanation:

Pigmented eyes (P) are dominant to non-pigmented (p), and dimpled chins (D) are dominant to Non-dimpled chins (d).

The <u>possible genotypes of a pigment-eyed, dimple-chinned person</u> would be  PPDD, PpDd, PPDd, PpDD while a blue-eyed person without a dimpled chin would have the genotype ppdd.

The genotype of a blue-eyed, dimpled chin child would be either of ppDd or ppDD, but in this case, the mother is ppdd and as such, the child cannot have two copies of D allele. Hence, the genotype of the child can only be ppDd.

In order for the child to have blue eyes (pp), it means that the father has to have the non-pigmented allele (p). This also means that the father is heterozygous for eye pigmentation (Pp).

<em>Hence, the genotype of the father is now limited to </em><em>PpDD</em> <em>and </em><em>PpDd</em>.

Which of the following does not promote biodiversity
bonufazy [111]
The correct option is INTRODUCTION OF EXOTIC SPECIES;
Exotic species refers to an introduced specie of an animal which is alien to the ecosystem in which it found itself and which has been transported to that ecosystem either intentionally or by accident. Exotic species normally have varieties of effects on the ecosystem to which they are introduced, sometimes the effect will be good and sometimes the effects could be devastating depending on the particular situation. 
Factors which promote diversity include: larger size of the ecosystem, longer growing seasons and climatic stability.<span />
