Answer:

B) 0.25

Explanation:

In the given individual, the genotype is aaBbCc. This indicates that the individual has two pairs of contrasting alleles. Thus it will produce four different types of gametes, abc, aBC, aBc and abC will be formed. Out of 4 types of gametes only one gamete namely, aBC is with two beneficial alleles. Thus, the proportion of two or more beneficial alleles is 0.25 (1 out of 4).

n cattle, an autosomal mutation called Dexter produces calves with short stature and short limbs. Embryos that are homozygous fo
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

1 DDRR - Red, non-dexter

2 DDRr - Roan, non-dexter

2 DdRR - Red, dexter

4 DdRr - Roan, dexter

1 DDrr - white, non-dexter

2 Ddrr - white, dexter

Explanation:

Dexter is deleterious in homozygous condition, hence, phenotypes are heterozygous.

Roan are also heterozygous.

If dexter allele is represented by D, non dexter individuals will be DD dexter individuals will have the genotype Dd.

If colour in cattle is represented by R, red individuals will be RR, white will be rr, then roan colour will be Rr.

Hence, roan dexter cow and roan dexter bull will both have DdRr genotypes.

Crossing the two:    DdRr   x   DdRr

Progeny:

1 DDRR - Red, non-dexter

2 DDRr - Roan, non-dexter

2 DdRR - Red, dexter

4 DdRr - Roan, dexter

1 DDrr - white, non-dexter

2 Ddrr - white, dexter

<em>Others that are either aborted or stillbirths include:</em>

<em>1 ddRR </em>

<em>2 ddRr </em>

<em>1 ddrr</em>
