Somatotropin

Somatotropin is a polypeptide growth hormone that regulates the growth of bone, muscle, and other body tissues. Somatotropin is secreted by somatotropic cells within the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland. Somatotropin is important in human development as it stimulates growth, cell regenerations and reproduction in humans and other animals. The levels of somatotrophin rise increasingly during childhood and also occur at its peak in puberty.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene with two alleles W and w in puppies. According to the question, the genotype of the parent organisms are Ww. In a cross between the two parents i.e. Ww × Ww, the following gametes will be produced by each parent: W and w.

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following genotype of offsprings will be produced: WW, Ww, Ww, ww. Hence, based on this question, the percentage of puppies that would have the same genotype as the parents, Ww are 1/2 × 100% = 50%.
