Answer:

1. Reducing

2. External

Explanation:

The external urinary sphincter, also called as external urethral sphincter consists of skeletal muscles. During micturition reflex, the micturition center present in the brain serves to inhibit the somatic motor neurons by reducing their action potential. These somatic motor neurons innervate in the external urinary sphincter.  

Inhibition of somatic motor neurons of the external urinary sphincter results in relaxation of the sphincter to facilitate the act of urination.

irakobra [83]

Answer:

The correct options are B "The unusual F1 female is heterozygous for a reciprocal balanced translocation involving the chromosome with the apricot, bristle and clipped loci" and D "Independent assortment of non-compatible chromosome structures (i.e., translocated and normal chromosomes segregating together) in the F1 female led to the 90 eggs that aborted development"

Explanation:

The unexpected results obtained earlier can be attributed to the two factors listed above. At the time when meisois takes place, there is the process of independent assortment which leads to formation of zygotes. Due to the event of translocation, the eggs produced lacked some critical development genes.

Earth’s axis is tilted to one side. Which phenomenon would cease to exist in the absence of this axial tilt?
Snowcat [4.5K]
The earth's tilt of 23.5 degrees to it's axis as it revolves around the sun causes seasons; summer, spring, winter and autumn. This is due to the orientation of the earth with respect to the sun that cause variations in how to sun rays 'strike' the earth. Consequently, there are variations in temperatures across the earth, over its complete revolution, causing seasons my brotha, Hope this helps!
