Answer:
Jane: Aa
Matthew: aa
Explanation:
Jane is a heterozygous woman, which means that she is dominant for this genetic trait while Matthew is homozygous that did not inherit the achondroplastic dwarfism trait from his parents, that is why he is alive.
If we draw a Punnett square, we can see that some of their children will inherit the trait while others will not.

a ║ aa ║ aa
The correct answer would be D), over millions of years, Pangaea broke apart and drifted to form the seven continents.
In order to solve this problem we use these formula:
<span>p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1p + q = 1p = % dominant allele in the population
q = % recessive allele in the population
p2 = % homozygous dominant individuals
q2 = % homozygous recessive individuals
2pq = % heterozygous individualsFrom the given, we haveq2 = 21%Simply taking the square root,q = 4.58%</span>
