Answer:

50% of the hatched chickens would be speckled, 25% would be black and 25% would be 25%

Explanation:

The black chickens are the dominant allele and the white chicken are the recessive allele. Since the black chicken is dominant, Let the genotype of the black chickens be (BB) and the genotype of the white chicken be (ww).

If the Black and white chicken are cross bred and the eggs hatched  are black with white speckles, i.e (Bw). The genotype of all the hatched chickens would be (Bw). Where Bw is speckled chicken.

If the hatched chicken with genotype (Bw) are interbred, the resulting hatched chickens genotype would be BB, Bw, Bw and ww for four offsprings. This shows that 50% of the hatched chickens would be speckled, 25% would be black and 25% would be 25%

In your own words, describe the primary difference between consequentialist and non-consequentialist approaches to ethics. Choos
tino4ka555 [31]

A consequentialist approach to ethics is an approach that claims that the morality of an action depends on its outcome. This means that an action is "good" is the consequence it brings is good as well. An example of such a theory is Utilitarianism. Utilitarianism states that an action is morally good if it leads to the most happiness for greatest number of people. However, an objection that can be made to this theory is that utility and happiness are subjective, as well as difficult to measure.

On the other hand, non-consequentialist ethics state that the morality of an action is based on the rightness and wrongness of the actions themselves and not the consequences of those actions. An example of this is the Natural Rights Theory, which states that humans have an inherent right to certain rights, regardless of human behaviour. However, it is unclear who has the right to state what these rights are, which has led to criticism of the theory.
