Two true-breeding stocks of pea plants are crossed. One parent has red, axial flowers and the other has white, terminal flowers;

all F1 individuals have red, axial flowers. The genes for flower color and location assort independently. Among the F2 offspring, what is the probability of plants with white axial flowers? A) 9/16 B) 1/16 C) 3/16 D) 1/4

Answer:

Answer is 3/16.

Explanation:

If the F1 progeny has red axial flowers this shows us that red and axial genes are dominant. If we say that R is for red dominant gene, r is for white recessive gene.

If we say A is axial dominant gene, a is for terminal recessive gene.

All F1 progeny has AaRr phenotype.

When we cross them, Aa x Aa  can have AA Aa Aa aa

When Rr x Rr crossed, RR Rr Rr rr

The F2 progeny can have white axial flowers by having a and R in the phenotype with the possibility having aa= 1/4 , R in the phenotype , the possibility is 3/4.

1/4 x 3/4 = 3/16 in all F2 progeny

Answer:

luteinizing hormone (LH) is mainly used to induce ovulation.

Explanation:

Ovulation refers to the release of an egg.During menstruation  ovarian follicle discharges an egg.The egg is also known as an ovum, oocyte, or female gamete. It is only released on reaching maturity.

Ovulation induction uses hormonal therapy to stimulate egg development and release egg or ovulate.

By increasing the production of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) by the pituitary gland, follicles are stimulated and hence egg growth is seen.

A surge in the Luteinizing hormone (LH) causes the egg to release or ovulate. Luteinizing hormone (LH) is produced and released in the anterior pituitary gland. This hormone is a gonadotrophic hormone and plays an important role in controlling the function of ovaries in females and testes in males.

In women, the hormone stimulates the ovaries to produce oestradiol. Two weeks into a woman's cycle, a surge in luteinizing hormone causes the ovaries to release an egg during ovulation. If fertilization occurs, luteinizing hormone will stimulate the corpus luteum, which produces progesterone to sustain the pregnancy.

8. Aubrey Kingsley was trapped in a house fire and suffered third-degree burns on her arms, legs.
Luda [366]

Answer:

Third-degree burns destroy the epidermis and dermis. They may go into the innermost layer of skin, the subcutaneous tissue. The burn site may look white or blackened and charred.

Explanation:

The treatment of third-degree burns may require the process of skin grafting or the use of synthetic skin. Severe burns covering large parts of the body may need more intensive treatments such as intravenous (IV) antibiotics to prevent infection or IV fluids to replace fluids lost when skin was burned.

Korolek [52]

A firefighter wakes up in the middle of the night to the sound of an alarm. it is likely that her adrenal glands have released epinephrine and norepinephrine.

The medulla of the adrenal glands secrete the hormone epinephrine, which is also known as adrenaline. Epinephrine is released into the bloodstreams when a person experiences strong fight or flight emotions. This leads to an increase in the rate of the heart beat, muscle contraction and movement.
