led primarily by the MC1R gene. Freckles are a dominant trait: parents who have freckles tend to have children with freckles. Bill and Barb both have freckles. Yet of their four children, one child does not have freckles! What must be the genotypes of Bill and Barb?

Answer:

The correct answer would be C) Bb and Bb.

The phenotype of both parents is a dominant trait. Thus, both of them must contain at least one copy of the dominant allele.

Therefore, the genotype of both parents would be B_.

Case I: When both parents are homozygous dominant, that is, BB. All the offspring would be BB, that is, all have freckles.

Case II: When one parent is homozygous dominant and other is heterozygous, that is. BB and Bb. All the offspring would be either BB or Bb. Thus, all the offspring would have freckles.

Case III: When both the parents are heterozygous dominant, that is, both are Bb. The offspring can have BB, Bb, or bb. One out of four children would have no freckles.

Thus, the correct answer would be C) Bb and Bb.

Any alloy of iron mixed with a small amount of carbon to increase its strength or malleability is called _______________.group o
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Any alloy of iron mixed with a small amount of carbon to increase its strength or malleability is called Steel.

<h3>Why we use alloy ?</h3>

The most common reason for alloying is to increase the strength of a metal. This requires that barriers to slip be distributed uniformly throughout the crystalline grains. On the finest scale, this is done by dissolving alloying agents in the metal matrix (a procedure known as solid solution hardening).

It increases tensile strength also. Hardness, hardenability and resistance to wear. It decreases tendency toward scaling and distortion. It increases the rate of carbon-penetration in carburizing.

<h3>How to make Alloy? </h3>

Alloys are made by mixing two or more elements, at least one of which is a metal. This is usually called the primary metal or the base metal, and the name of this metal may also be the name of the alloy.
