Answer: The pathology described in the question is "testicular torsion".

The most sensitive physical exam that is specific to this pathology is testing for reflexes. The inner thigh of the affected side when rubbed should cause the testicle to contract; but in this pathology, it does not.

Explanation:

Testicular torsion is a condition caused by the twisting of the spermatic cord, which causes a loss of blood flow to the testicle. It is the leading cause of testicular loss in adolescent boys, if no surgical intervenvention is carried out as soon as possible.

Consider a cross of beetles with exoskeleton alleles B and b and leg size alleles N and n. The maleparent is heterozygous in bot
vichka [17]

Answer:

a. Genotype of male parent= BbNn

Genotype of female parent: bbnn

b: Progeny ratio= 1: 1: 1: 1

c: 1/4

Explanation:

a. Genotype of male parent= BbNn

Genotype of female parent: bbnn

b. Gamete formed by the male parent: BN: Bn: bN: bn in 1:1:1:1 ratio.

Gametes formed by female parent: All gametes with "bn" alleles.

c.  The probability that the offspring will have a genotype of Bbnn=

Bb x bb= 1/2 Bb: 1/2 bb

Nn x nn= 1/2 Nn: 1/2 nn

Therefore, probability that the offspring will have a genotype of Bbnn= 1/2 Bb x 1/2 nn= 1/2.

Black mice and tan mice are native species that are observed in a particular region. Human habitation in the region caused an in
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The correct answer would be that <u>the availability of food resources for black mice and brown mice will decrease.</u>

<em>Since the food requirements of the black mice are the same as that of the invasive brown mice, the available food supply that used to be only for the black mice would now be shared by the two strains of mice. Hence, the available food for the two groups of mice will naturally decrease.</em>

There is no sufficient information to conclude that the population of tan mice will decrease, hence, option B is incorrect.

The black mice and tan mice have different food requirements going by the information available in the illustration, hence, both cannot compete for food resources. Option C is, therefore, incorrect. In the same vein, option D is incorrect because the tan mice have different food requirements from the brown mice.

<u>The only correct option is A.</u>
