Phenotypes are the physical characteristics that result from the genotype, which is the genetic makeup of the organism. In this case, either straight hairline or Widow's peak will be the phenotype, as they are the physical characteristics being discussed.

The questions states that a Widow's peak is dominant over straight hairline. So we are going to assume that the Widow's peak allele is W (dominant), and the straight hairline allele is w (recessive).

A dominant allele will mask the presence of a recessive allele unless both of the alleles are both recessive (both ww).

So for the WW genotype, we are going to see the dominant phenotype: Widow's peak.

For the Ww genotype, we are also going to see the dominant phenotype since the dominant allele is going to mask the presence of the recessive allele, so we are going to see: Widow's peak.

Lastly, for the ww genotype, we are going to now see the recessive phenotype, since both alleles are recessive: straight hairline. Note that their are two of these type of offspring as stated in the question.

Answer:

a) WW - Widow peaked offspring

b) Ww - Widow peaked offspring

c) ww - straight  hairline offspring

Explanation:

Given -

Widow peak is dominant over straight  hairline

Let us suppose that

"W" represents the Widow peak

"w" represents the straight  hairline

Since W is dominant over w, hence when these two alleles are together then only the dominant  trait is expressed .

Recessive trait is expressed only when both the alleles are recessive.

Considering the above two facts the phenotype of the offsprings is as follows -

a) WW - Widow peaked offspring

b) Ww - Widow peaked offspring

c) ww - straight  hairline offspring

Lactic acid fermentation ocurrs in muscle cells when____is in low. supply
Contact [7]
<h2>Answer </h2>

Lactic acid fermentation ocurrs in muscle cells when oxygen is in low supply

<u>Explanation</u>

The lactic acid fermentation in the muscles cell occurs when muscles work faster and it occurs due to the lack of supply of oxygen in the cell. The lactic acid fermentation is a type of aerobic respiration. The lactic acid formation is due to excessive exercise by individuals and oxygen which is essential for living, is less in the muscle which causes the feeling of burning in the muscles.

n this project, you will analyze claims about the causes of inherited genetic variation. You will then make your own claim based
valina [46]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

There are several reasons that genetic variation occurs. Some of them are as follows: mutation, random fertilization, recombination event during meiosis etc. The way in which this variation in genetics is distributed is in a continuous way. In case of the human species, it is reported that 85% of all variation is within a certain population, while the remaining 15% of genetic variation is between populations.
