TT= Homozygous dominant (there is nothing recessive about TT)
Tt= heterozygous (contains a recessive trait (t))
tt= homozygous recessive
Hopefully this helped and good luck
Hi!
The selection in this case would be natural selection.
Natural selection is a process that involves organisms with favorable characteristics having a higher chance of reproductive success, and passing on their traits onto the offspring. This process, as opposed to artificial selection, does not involve human intervention and is a natural phenomenon.
In our case, whales with maximum length (the favorable trait) are mating on accord of their own, without external factors governing the process; hence, the selection is natural.
Hope it helps!
Answer:
YES. This information is enough to assume that neither of the blood groups dominates over the other one.
Explanation:
<u>Available data:</u>
- A man with blood group B ----> Genotype IBIB or IBi
- A woman with blood group AB ---> Genotype IAIB
- Their daughter has blood group AB --> Genotype IAIB
The fact that the daughter´s genotype is IAIB tells us that she got the IA allele from the mother, who is IAIB, and the IB allele from his father, who is IB-.
- If blood type B was dominant over A or AB, then the daughter should have Blood type B.
- If blood type A was dominant over B or AB, then the daughter should have Blood type A.
- Blood type AB tells us that both types are being expressed, A and B.
The fact that the daughter inherited one type of allele from each parent, but she is expressing the blood type AB, suggests that neither of the alleles dominates the other one. This is an example of co-dominance, where the heterozygote phenotype is an additive expression of both of the parents' genes.
This is enough information to assume that neither of the blood groups dominates over the other one.
I believe the answer is A. True.
