The correct answer is “a dominant-recessive pattern".
A dominant-recessive pattern pertains to the characteristics of the allele to portray a certain phenotype. A dominant allele (represented by capital letters) will show the phenotype even if the other allele is recessive (represented by small letters). A recessive allele will only manifest a phenotype of both alleles are recessive.
For example:
A is the dominant trait that will make the peas green; a is the recessive allele that will make the peas yellow
The pair AA are both dominant alleles and will make the peas green. The pair Aa has both the dominant allele and the recessive allele but since the dominant allele is present, the peas will still be green. The pair aa has both the recessive allele and will make the peas yellow.
Nucleoside analogs are the mutagenic chemicals that have a structure that is similar to the normal bases of the nucleotide and thus can be incorporated in the DNA during the process of replication, however as it has different base-pairing rules than the normal nucleotide base it can lead to mutations.
An example of a nucleoside analog is acyclovir which an analog of guanosine.
.B) You would place newborn curly-whiskered mud rats with bald mud rat parents and place newborn bald mud rats with curly-whiskered mud rat parents. Finally, let some mud rats of both species be raised by their own species. Then you would compare the outcomes.
