Answer: Autonomic nervous system is made up of 3 divisions; Sympathetic nervous system, parasympathetic nervous system and sympathetic division. All these divisions are involuntary actions where parasympathetic is ultimately responsible for the "rest and digest" part of it. When the body is at rest the parasympathetic nervous system inhibits or lowers high energy requiring bodily functions.
This nervous system will lower any fight or flight response actions such as the release of epinephrine into the blood and enable digestion, urination and defeacation. When engaged in digestion you feel relaxed and at rest, this is solely due to the parasympathetic nevous system.

The mutation in the somatic cells is known as somatic mutations. As they do not take place in the cells, which give rise to gametes, thus, the mutation is not inherited to the next generation by the sexual means.
On the other hand, the genetic mutations take place in the germline cells, that is, egg and sperm, because of this the mutations possesses the tendency to get passed on from one generation to another.
Thus, mutations are only passed on to offspring when they take place in germ cell DNA. The other kind of cells, the somatic cells refers to the rest of the cells in the body and mutations, which takes place in these cells do not get inherited further to the offspring.
Hence, the correct statements are mutations to gametes can be passed on to an organism's offspring and mutations to somatic cells are only present in the type of cell in which the mutation occurred.
What? lol whatagtttttttttttt
Answer: Twenty five (25) of the chicks will be black.
Explanation: A cross between two heterozygous chicks (Bl/bl+) will produce four chicks; one will be Bl/Bl, two will be Bl/bl+ while one will be bl+/bl+.
A break down of the phenotypes is as follows:
Genotype ==> Phenotype
Bl/Bl ==> Black
Bl/bl+ ==> intermediate
bl+/bl+ ==> blue.
Since one out of four offsprings (1/4) is black, therefore if the two chicken produce 100 chicks, the number of chicks that will be black is 1/4 x 100 = 25.
