Answer:
A) Madison’s parents’ blood types may be either A & 0, or A & A.
B) Depending on her parents’ genotypes, Madison’s genotype may be either AA or A0
Explanation:
Since the A allele is dominant with respect to the 0, a person with blood type A may have either one (A0 genotype) or two A alleles (AA genotype). In contrast, a person with blood type 0 may only have two 0 alleles (00 genotype).
Because one of the sisters has type 0 blood, we have to assume that both of her parents have at least one 0 allele. There are two situations which may give rise to the described scenario (see Punnett squares):
Alternative 1: One of the parents has A blood type (A0 genotype), and the other has 0 blood type (00 genotype). Madison’s genotype may only be A0.
| 0 | 0
——————————
A | A0 | A0
——————————
0 | 00 | 00
Alternative 2: Both parents have A blood type and A0 genotypes. Madison’s genotype may be either A0 (probability of 2/3) or AA (probability of 1/3).
| A | 0
——————————
A | AA | A0
——————————
0 | 0A | 00

Answer: Chloroplasts
Explanation: Chloroplasts turn light energy from the sun to sugar.
Answer:
a. There are different possible ways that homologous pairs might line up
c. Different alignments of homologous pairs will cause different combinations of alleles in gametes.
Explanation:
The law of independent assortment, proposed by Mendel, states that the alleles of one gene segregate into gametes independently of the alleles of another gene. This means that the segregation of one gene does not affect another. This law of independent assortment is evident during gamete formation in sexually-reproducing organisms know as meiosis. Specifically, in the Metaphase 1 stage of meiosis 1, homologous chromosomes (similar but non-identical chromosomes received from each parent) lines up at the metaphase plate (cell equator).
The lining up of chromosomes in this stage occurs randomly making it possible for chromosomes to align in different possible ways. The way/manner the chromosomes align at the equator determines which chromosome combination gets separated into which gamete. The homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed at the cell's equator before segregates into gametes. This random orientation enables the alleles of each gene on a chromosome to combine in different random ways, hence, allowing genetic diversity in the resulting gametes (sperm and egg) they get segregated into.
