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.

Answer:

<em>As scientists learned more about genetics and biochemistry , some organisms were moved out of existing kingdoms and into new ones.</em>

Explanation:

As the researches in the scientific world continued, scientists realized that there were, in fact, many genetic diversities present in organisms which were placed in the same groups. Hence, they realized that due to these differences these organisms should not be kept in the same group. As a result, the groups in the classification system increased.

Carolus Linnaeus just grouped organisms based on their features. But today, scientists classify organisms based on various perspectives such as the evolutionary history, genetic similarities etc.
