About 70% of Americans perceive a bitter taste from the chemical phenylthiocarbamide (PTC). The ability to taste this chemical r

esults from a dominantallele (T) and not being able to taste PTC is the result of having two recessive alleles (t). Albinism is also a single locus trait with normal pigment being dominant(A) and the lack of pigment being recessive (a). A normally pigmented woman who cannot taste PTC has a father who is an albino taster. She marries a homozygous, normally pigmented man who is a taster but who has a mother that does not taste PTC. What are the genotypes of the possible children (choose all that apply)

The genotype for the possible children is 'AATt, AAtt, Aatt, AaTt'.  Woman has normal pigment which means she must have at-least one' 'A. her father is albino and albino allele is recessive , so his genotype is 'aa'. Then 'Aa' genotype is present in skin.

Woman cannot taste PTC because the ability ti taste PTC is dominant .So 'tt' genotype is present for tasting trait. Putting both the trait the woman's genotype is 'Aatt'.

(PTC) Phenylthiocarbamide tasting is  a trait governed by pair of alleles ,  'T' is for tasting dominant and recessive 't' is for non- tasting.The genotype of parents perform a punnett square to determine the F1 offspring. And the genotype of possible children can be determine.

How does biodiversity support healthy ecosystems
pav-90 [236]

ANSWER: Biological biodiversity refers to all the different kinds of life that are obtainable in a particular ecosystem, this include all the plants and animal populations that are found in a particular geographical area.

Biodiversity supports healthy ecosystem because it enhances the productivity and the survival of the ecosystem. For instance, in a situation where there are large number of different plant population in an ecosystem, such population will present variability in genetic make up. If a negative event occur in the ecosystem, it will be possible for some plants to survive. But, in a situation where it is only one type of plant that is obtainable in the ecosystem, it will be quite easy to wipe all of them out at once. For instance, a disease outbreak can easily destroy all the plants.
