Correct Answer: D

Rationale: Autosomal dominant inheritance results in a 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive phenotypes in the F2 generation. This inheritance pattern occurs when a single copy of the dominant allele is enough to express the dominant phenotype. A) Incomplete dominance: In incomplete dominance, the heterozygous phenotype is a blend of the two homozygous phenotypes, and it does not lead to a 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive phenotypes in the F2 generation. B) Codominance: In codominance, both alleles are fully expressed in the heterozygous phenotype, but this pattern also does not result in a 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive phenotypes in the F2 generation. C) Sex-linked inheritance: Sex-linked inheritance involves genes located on the sex chromosomes and does not typically lead to a 3:1 ratio of dominant to recessive phenotypes in the F2 generation.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The muscular system is responsible for movement, maintaining posture, and generating heat. Regulating blood sugar levels is not a function of the muscular system. This function is primarily carried out by the endocrine system, specifically the pancreas and its production of insulin and glucagon. Choices A, B, and C are all correct functions of the muscular system as they involve the contraction and relaxation of muscles to produce movement, support the body's structure, and generate heat as a byproduct of muscle activity.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Fertilization typically occurs in the fallopian tube. This is where the sperm and egg meet and fuse to form a zygote. The fallopian tube provides the optimal environment for fertilization as it helps in the transportation of the egg and provides a suitable site for fertilization before the resulting embryo travels to the uterus for implantation. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect. The ovary is where eggs are produced, the uterus is where the fertilized egg implants and develops into a fetus, and the vagina is the canal that leads to the cervix, but fertilization itself does not occur in these locations.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The angle of reflection is determined by the angle of incidence according to the law of reflection, which states that the angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. When light reflects off a surface, the angle at which it strikes the surface (angle of incidence) is the key factor in determining the angle at which it reflects (angle of reflection). The material of the surface, the wavelength of the light, and the intensity of the light do not directly influence the angle of reflection in this context. Therefore, the correct answer is the angle of incidence (Choice C). The material of the surface (Choice A) does affect other properties like reflectivity but does not directly determine the angle of reflection. The wavelength of the light (Choice B) determines its color or frequency but not the angle of reflection. The intensity of the light (Choice D) is related to the brightness of the light but does not dictate the angle at which light reflects from a surface.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: HIV targets and destroys Helper T cells, which are vital for coordinating the immune response against infections. The destruction of Helper T cells weakens the immune system, leading to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Neutrophils (Choice A) are primarily involved in acute inflammatory responses and fighting bacterial infections. Macrophages (Choice B) play a role in phagocytosis and antigen presentation but are not the primary target of HIV. Memory B cells (Choice D) are responsible for mounting a quicker and more robust antibody response upon re-exposure to a pathogen, but they are not the main target of HIV infection.
