Answer:

The correct answer is: 25 %

Explanation:

According to Mandel's law of inheritance, the dominant allele masks the expression of the recessive allele if present together. If a couple has 3 children with brown eyes. In a monohybrid cross, the ideal phenotypic ratio of the offsprings is 3: 1 or in other words, the dominant character chances to appear is 75% in phenotype.

So, by the law of dominance of monohybrid cross the chances of the fourth child to develop blue eyes is 25%.

Thus, the correct answer is : 25 %.

olganol [36]

Answer:

The world climate would drastically change.

Explanation:

  • First off, both poles would have rapid expansion, with the freezing of more water near the poles.
  • Many species of trees and plants would die out in certain areas, since they tend to be in their ideal locations, so the change in climate will make the northern parts of many habitats destroyed.
  • Deserts would expand and the average temperature would rise.
  • Also, many animals would also die out, because of the change in their environments.
  • Conifers would shift southward, causing many forests / parts of forests to turn into wastelands, causing the earth's oxygen production to decrease.
