What effect does genetic engineering have on the evolution of a species?

1 answer:

6 0

It has the potential to add new traits to future generations of a specific species (hopefully good ones) but it could also impact that species in a negative way and decimate the species, because mother nature is a significantly better genetic engineer then we will ever be and we don't always know exactly what the indirect impacts of the new genetic "advantages" we implement will be.

9. In guinea pigs, rough coat is dominant (R) to smooth coat (r) and black coat (B) is dominant to white coat (b). A rough black

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

the genotype of the parent guinea pigs are as follows:

RrBb (rough, black) and Rrbb (rough, white)

Explanation:

Since the phenotype of smooth coat is present in the offspring, the parent genotype cannot have RR alleles for their coat. Similarly, the rough, black parent cannot have BB alleles in its genotype because that will not yield a white coat color in its offspring.

After making the dihybdrid cross, the probability obtained for each phenotype is given below:

rough black: $\frac{3}{8}$

rough white: $\frac{3}{8}$

smooth black: $\frac{1}{8}$

smooth white: $\frac{1}{8}$

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
