Answer:
The answer is A.
Explanation:
Moth with dark wings under the tree with dark bark have a higher chance of surviving as its wings protect them from predator due to similar colour features.
Answer:
Explanation:
If the disorder is recessive, neither parent has to have the disorder because
they can be heterozygous. The characteristic features of autosomal recessive inheritance is as follows:-
•Appears in both sexes with equal frequency
• Trait tend to skip generations
• Affected offspring are usually born to unaffected parents
• When both parents are heterozygous approx. 1/4 of the progeny will be affected
• Appears more frequently among the children of consanguineous marriages.
The given pedigree follows these features. So the correct option is 'Autosomal recessive trait'.
Please correct me If I am wrong :)
Answer:
D. 1 BB : 2 Bb : 1 bb
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for fur color in guinea pig. Black fur (B) is dominant over white fur (b). This means that, as stated in the question, if a black fur parent (BB) is crossed with a white fur parent (bb), a 100% heterozygous offspring (Bb) with black fur will result.
If two heterozygous guinea pigs are crossed i.e. Bb × Bb, the following gametes will be produced by each heterozygous parent:
Bb = B and b
Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), offsprings with the following genotypic ratio will be produced:
1 BB : 2 Bb : 1 bb
BB and Bb = black fur guinea pigs
bb = white fur guinea pigs
Answer:
What was the first hominid ancestor?
The first early hominid from Africa, the Taung child, as it was known, was a juvenile member of Australopithecus africanus, a species that lived one million to two million years ago, though at the time skeptical scientists said the chimpanzee-size braincase was too small for a hominid.
