Because the membrane is made of lipids, typically fat-soluble (non-polar) molecules are able to pass easily. In addition, smaller, uncharged polar molecules can also pass through. Use the attached diagram to help you understand.
Answer: All of the offspring are brown. The chances of getting a brown deer is 100%.
Explanation: The buck is homozygous dominant, meaning he has two of the brown (B) allele. The doe is white, and since the allele for a white coat is recessive, it has to have two white (b) alleles.
Set up a Punnett square with BB on one side and bb on the other. The results of this are 4 offspring all with the genotype Bb. Because brown (B) is dominant, all of them are brown.
To find the chance of getting a brown deer, take the number of brown deer (4) and divide it by the total number of outcomes (4). This gets you 4/4 or 1. As a percent, that would equal 100%.
What causes hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN)? HDN most frequently occurs when an Rh negative mother has a baby with an Rh positive father. When the baby's Rh factor is positive, like the father's, problems can develop if the baby's red blood cells cross to the Rh negative mother.
