The correct answer is that the population of foxes will also decrease in size.

The population of the fox is majorly dependent on the population of mice as the source of their food, and due to a fatal disease infecting the mice population, the population of the fox who majorly consumes mice would also get infected with the same deadly disease.

This condition will eventually result in declining of fox population due to their over-dependence on mice as the source of food.

kifflom [539]

Answer: 1/4

Explanation:

Firstly, in order for both parents to be type A and have children with type o blood, their blood types must both be Ao. Since o is a recessive blood type, a punnett square shows there is a 25% chance any child of theirs will have type o blood. If neither parent is color blind and they have a son who is, it implies that the mother is a carrier of colorblindness and has the genotype XᴮXᵇ. If you do a punnett square of the not colorblind father (XᴮY) and the mother, it shows that a daughter would have a 0% chance of being colorblind. Therefore colorblindess is irrelevent, since there is no possibility of the daughter not having normal color vision. In conclusion, there's a 25% chance she will have type o blood and not be colorblind, since the other 75% chance would be having type A blood and not being colorblind.
