Answer:
1. The parents genotypes could have been BO and AO
2. wire-hair
Explanation:
There are four possible blood types which are type A, B, AB, O. blood group is the classification of blood based on the presence or the absence of inherited antigenic substances on the surface of the red blood cells. They have hereditary basis and also rely on a series of alternative genes sometimes used in solving dispute of parental heritage. With the four possible blood groups, there are six possible genotypes and these are:
Blood type possible genotypes
Type A AA, AO
Type B BB, BO
Type AB AB
Type O OO
Thus, for parents with blood type B and A to give birth to a child with blood type O, it means their genotype could have been both BO and AO for them to be able to produce a child with OO. a cross between these two could give rise to OO.
Question 2
Wire hair is dominant (S) to smooth (s), thus wire hair could be in the homozygous (SS) and heterozygous form (Ss) and the smooth hair can only be expressed in the homozygous recessive form (ss).
thus, in a cross between homozygous wire haired and smooth haired, we will have:
homozygous wire haired homozygous smooth haired
P gen SS x ss
F1 gen. Ss
phenotype: wire haired
Carbon film fossil is the type of fossil that preserves delicate details of an organism after pressure squeezes out liquids and gases.
Carbon film fossil is a type of fossil that is mainly composed of carbon and can preserve delicate details of organism’s (animal and plants) parts. The formation of carbon film fossil starts when a dead organism is buried under sediments. After some time, the organism will begin to decay in a process known as carbonization. Pressure will squeeze out liquids and gases from the dead organism, leaving behind a layer of carbon. Carbon film fossils usually appear black or brown in colour.
Carbon dioxide from the yeast comes from a process called fermentation. Fermentation is a cellular respiration process in cells that happens when oxygen is not present. If oxygen is present, the process is called aerobic respiration.
