If both parents are carriers of an recessive inherited trait, what are the chances that their child will express that trait?

Biology
1 answer:
ZanzabumX [31]4 years ago
5 0
The chances that the child will express that trait is 1/4 or 25%. Let the dominant trait be R and the recessive r.
A cross between Rr and Rr would yield RR, Rr, Rr and rr. Only RR would express the trait since its recessive.
Therefore chances =1/4 or 25%

Severe reductions in the production of dopamine have been linked with:
Greeley [361]
Dopamine is a chemical that serves as a neurotransmitter that governs the transmission of signal between the neurons (brain cells) through binding to the receptors. This is also referred to "reward hormone" because this is excreted during activities that causes too much excitement or satisfaction. 

The severe reduction in this hormone is linked primarily to disease that results from the dissociation of the breakdown of this hormone. This causes muscular paralysis, tremor, slow movement. Further this causes difficulty in movement initiation. This disease described above is the Parkinson's Disease.

What is the difference between DNA, chromatin, and Chromosomes?
Serhud [2]
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is the hereditary material that lies within the nucleus of all cells in humans and other living organisms. Most of the DNA is placed within the nucleus and is called nuclear DNA.

A chromosome is made up of two chromatids which are joined by the centromere. The chromatids separate from each other during mitosis to form two new chromosomes. The DNA making up a chromosome is dispersed as chromatin.

Under a microscope, chromatids look like little dots and chromosomes are lines.
