Asked in Premeth Test 27 — InheritanceModerate

Statement: Due to a substantial reduction in fares by airline services, a large number of passengers who were traveling by upper classes in trains have switched to airline services. Courses of action: I. The railways should immediately reduce the fare structure of the upper classes substantially to retain its passengers. II. The railways should reduce the capacity of upper classes in all trains to avoid loss.

Correct answer: A. If only I is most appropriate

  • A. If only I is most appropriate
  • B. If only II is most appropriate
  • C. If either I or II is most appropriate
  • D. If neither I nor II is most appropriate

Explanation

The problem is a loss of customers to a competitor due to price. The most direct way to address this is to become more price-competitive by reducing fares (Action I). Reducing capacity (Action II) accepts the loss of customers rather than trying to win them back.

About Inheritance

Mendel's laws explain segregation, independent assortment and the prediction of genetic ratios using alleles, genotypes and phenotypes. The chapter also covers linked genes, recombination and crossing over during meiosis, then applies pedigree reasoning to X-linked recessive traits, which show different inheritance patterns in males and females.
