Suppose that a dominant allele (P) codes for a polka-dot tail and a recessive allele (p) codes for a solid colored tail. In addi

tion, suppose that a dominant allele (L) codes for long eyelashes and a recessive allele (l) codes for short eyelashes. If two individuals heterozygous for both traits (tail color and eyelash length) mate, what's the probability of the phenotypic combinations of the offspring?
A. 1:1 ratio (half are polka-dot tails and short eyelashes; half are solid tails and long eyelashes)
B. 9:3:3:1 ratio (9 polka-dot tails and long eyelashes, 3 polka-dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 solid tails and short eyelashes, 1
solid tail and short eyelash)
C. 1:1 ratio (half are polka-dot tails and long eyelashes; half are solid tails and short eyelashes)
D. 9:3:3:1 ratio (9 polka-dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 polka-dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 solid tails and long eyelashes, 1
solid tail and long eyelash)

I believe the answer is <span> 9:3:3:1 ratio with 9 polka dot tails and long eyelashes, 3 polka dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 solid tails and long eyelashes and 1 short tail short eyelash! Good Luck in this biology thing your doing :)</span>

Answer:

B. 9:3:3:1 ratio (9 polka-dot tails and long eyelashes, 3 polka-dot tails and short eyelashes, 3 solid tails and short eyelashes, 1  solid tail and short eyelash)

Explanation:

The Punnett square diagram for a cross between individuals heterozygous for two traits, tail & eyelashes where dominant allele (P) codes for a polka-dot tail and a recessive allele (p) codes for a solid colored tail & dominant allele (L) codes for long eyelashes and a recessive allele (l) codes for short eyelashes is attached.

From the diagram attached, it is clear that there will be a 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio.

9 genotypes with dominant traits (polka-dot tails and long eyelashes) will be: PPLL, PPLl, PpLL, PpLl ,PPLl, PpLl, PpLL, PpLl & PpLl.

3 genotypes with dominant trait for one character and recessive trait for another character (polka-dot tails and short eyelashes) will be: Ppll, Ppll & PPll.

3 genotypes with dominant trait for one character and recessive trait for another character (solid tails and long eyelashes) will be: ppLL, ppLl & ppLl

1 genotype which will be recessive for both the characters (solid tail and short eyelash) will be : ppll

Which of the following is a disadvantage of sexual reproduction?
Liula [17]
Answer: <span>A) Slow to repopulate

------

Genetic variation is an advantage of sexual reproduction. It increases survival and the ability to adapt in a species. Species with genetic variation can respond better to environment changes, since the genetic variability allows some to be immune to disease or adapt better to a change, and live to reproduce.

Slow to repopulate is a disadvantage because the species cannot recover quickly after a large disaster. It also means they cannot adapt as quickly to an environmental change.</span>

State two reasons why the fetal blood must not mix with the maternal blood?
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:During pregnancy, red blood cells from the unborn baby can cross into the mother's blood through the placenta. If the mother is Rh-negative, her immune system treats Rh-positive fetal cells as if they were a foreign substance. The mother's body makes antibodies against the fetal blood cells
