Answer: The percentage of each phenotype to be expressed is *50%* each
Explanation: In codominance, two alleles for a particular trait are equally expressed in an individual carrying it, neither an allele is dominant or recessive over the other. In this case the individual shows the two traits of the allels.
Furthermore, when 2 Christmas parrot are crossed with red and green color in an homozygous codominant trait the heterozygous F1 generation will either be red with traces of green or green showing traces of red.
If parrot 1 (Red) is represented as PR PR and parrot 2 (Green) is PG PG the cross between them will give PR PG therefore, the individual shows both traits.

Explanation:
<em><u>Musca</u></em> <u><em>domestica</em></u> is the scientific name of an animal popularly known as Housefly. From the question, it is known that this organism has a haploid chromosome number of 6.
In a diploid chromosomes, the number of chromatids that will be present will be twice of that in haploid.
Since haploid (n) = 6, diploid (2n) will be; 2 × 6 = 12
Somatic cells on the other hand also exhibit diploid number of chromosomes, again it means we will have (2n) = 2 × 6 = 12
In metaphase cell, cells do make sure they complete the S'phase of the cell cycle before cellular division.Therefore, the DNA present in the chromatids in the S'phase actively engage in chromatids doubling, as a result, 24 chromatids (i.e 12 × 2= 24) exists in the metaphase cell.
Answer:
Explanation:
Oxygen is the chemical element with the symbol O and atomic number 8. It is a member of the chalcogen group in the periodic table, a highly reactive nonmetal, and an oxidizing agent that readily forms oxides with most elements as well as with other compounds
