Answer:
1. Endocrine disrupters
Explanation:
Endocrine disrupters are chemicals that alters or interrupts the normal functioning of the endocrine system that consists of several glands that produce hormones responsible for various functions such as metabolism, reproduction, growth, etc. When this interferes with the endocrine system, it can bring about many undesirable consequences, one of which is low testosterone levels as reported in the Alligators in Florida lake that is polluted by high levels of dioxins. These chemicals act as endocrine disrupters.
Answer:
given, mother and father are heterozygotes.
let, father has B blood group and mother has A blood group.
then their heterozygous genotypes are --
father = iB, iO and mother = iA, iO
punnett square will be,
iB iO
iA iA iB iA iO
iO iB iO iO iO
the genotypes of their progeny will be, iAiB , iAiO ,iBiO and iOiO
and phenotypes will be 3 are heterozygous and 1 is homozygous.
The borders (coastlines) of the continents underwent a number of changes
since the split. Often, chunks of land were washed away with water,
slowly or in bigger portions. The coast was generally "smoothed" by the
ocean currents too, and in some places more land was added with the
material that the ocean currents brought.
Then, the tectonic plates continue to move, so this adds to the changes of the shape of the continents.
