Liam's father has blue eyes, but Liam has brown eyes, like his mother. As an adult, Liam marries a woman with blue eyes, and now

they are expecting their first baby. Is it possible for the child to be born with blue eyes?
A) Yes. Liam may carry the recessive gene for blue eyes.
B) Yes. When one parent has blue eyes and the other has brown, the child always has a 50% chance of getting the blue eyes.
C) No. As long as one parent has brown eyes the child will always have brown eyes.
D) No. Since Liam has brown eyes, he only carries genes for brown eyes.

Okay, so:

If we write the blue (recessive) gene as b and the brown (dominant) gene as B, then we can deduce from Liam's ancestry that he must have Bb genes (since otherwise his father couldn't have had blue eyes).

Therefore, Liam's genes of Bb and the woman's genes of bb can combine in the following ways:

Bb, Bb, bb, bb (repeats shown)

This means that half the time (the half with the B) the child will have brown eyes. The other half, the child will have blue eyes.

However, the answers to this are a bit confusing, and I'm not sure which one you should pick. B is correct in that it says the part about 50%, but it is not true that a child will always have this chance, as one parent may not carry a recessive gene. A is correct where it says yes, but incorrect in that it says Liam may carry the blue-eyed gene- he actually must have it.

Either way, you now know how the genetics works, and perhaps writing an explanation will get you the mark instead. <span>¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Good luck!</span>

Answer:

Explanation: I think some ppl are Lactose intolerant and others are not in it says in the Bible if something is harmful to your body then you shouldn’t do it so you shouldn’t drink milk if you’re lactose intolerant but if you’re not need to drink milk. So I think that each individual can be different they know because we have different surroundings in our lives then have catered to hell we actually developed so we’re not the same and if we have a relationship with the father then I think you know also how he sees us will change to.He said it’s up to him when he chooses to rain on the righteous if he if it rains on and the sooner you know that’s him that’s his part to choose to do so you know we’re not to question it you know there’s a time for everything. What could be a person’s blessing as a B in another person’s curse you know depends on the individual in time where they’re at and who’s around them and everything. Then again here’s work time exist only and I guess it also matters what you were in your original form. I kind a like to think the ones thatThey came from heaven are the ones that will go to heaven. Because it would really really suck if everybody wanted to come to your house and stay there for eternity don’t you think?

Although letter B is not a WRONG answer, I think the more appropriate answer is letter A. learn what type of education to pursue for your chosen field</span>

 

For example, I have no idea what course to pursue but wanted something in the field of art. So I researched what courses are available in this field. If I had gone with letter B. Talk to parents, they would have told me to become a doctor or engineer, which is not bad in itself except I have zero interest in becoming any of those professions.
