<span>The question is asking us to continue the sentence in: Biology and geology are two very different sciences, but biologists and geologists use scientific knowledge in the same way. These scientists both use scientific knowledge to... First, Geologists don't work with humans specifically, so we can reject answer D) Similarly, we reject answer B because it's only geologists who investigate Earth's different layers. Option C is again only true for one of the groups: the biologists! So the correct answer is A. answer questions and solve problems affecting the natural world.</span><span />

In horses, black color(B) dominates chestnut color(b). The trotting gait(T) dominates the pacing gait (t). A cross is made betwe

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

<h2>a. BbTt;</h2><h2>b. BbTt X BbTt ;</h2><h2> Parent 1: BT bt Bt bT </h2><h2> Parent 2: BT bt Bt bT ;</h2><h2>c. BBTT , BbTt , BBTt , BbTT , BbTt , BbTt , BBTt , BbTT , BBTt , Bbtt , BBtt , BbTt , BbTT , bbTt , BbTt , bbTT.</h2><h2> d. 12:1:1:2</h2>

Explanation:

As given Block color is dominant over chesnut color, so B is dominant over b.

Chestnut color=bb ;

Trotting gait is dominant over pacing gait, so T is dominant over t .

Pacing gait=tt

Now; cross between

(a) homozygous black, pacing gait is= BBtt; and horse homozygous for chestnut color, trotting gait is= bbTT

BBtt x bbTT

gametes are ; Bt and bT,

Progeny are BbTt, BbTt,

All progeny will be BbTt heterozygous Black color and heterozygous trotting gait

b. a cross is made between two horses, both of who are heterozygous black trotter = BbTt X BbTt

Possible gametes of each parent are;

Parent 1: BT bt Bt bT

Parent 2: BT bt Bt bT

c. Punnett square and all the possible gene combinations that results are;

Cross between these gametes

BT bt Bt bT

possible gene combinations ; BBTT , BbTt , BBTt , BbTT , BbTt , BbTt , BBTt , BbTT , BBTt , Bbtt , BBtt , BbTt , BbTT , bbTt , BbTt , bbTT.

d. expected phenotype ration of the offspring.

Black color and trotting gait horse 12: chestnut and trotting gait horse 1: Black color pacing gait horse 1: chestnut and trotting gait horse 2.

so 12:1:1:2
