In order for a recessive gene to be in a persons phenotype, they would have to be homozygous recessive so it would be impossible for the man to have polydactyl if he’s heterozygous.

However, assuming that he is homo recessive with polydactyl and he marries a homozygous dominant woman, the offsprings would have a 100% chance of not having polydactyl

If he marries a heterozygous woman, they offsprings would have a 50/50 change of having/not having polydactyl

Hope this helps :)

Q: Those are called homolgous structures because the skeletons are very similar and imply a common ancestor!!!! HOW DO I ANSWER
katrin2010 [14]

The skeletons may be similar but it usually focuses on one part. Meaning that the homologous structure would be a monkey paw, or the flipper of a whale.

They would be in the same classification. Such as humans are called homo sapien sapien. The family would be homo if I'm correct, meaning that if scientists are able to use the DNA of that structure to relate it to a common ancestor.

It would be true. Or if it's a multiple choice question, we need to know the choices.

How many chromosomes, and which chromosomes, does each of the dughter cells contain
labwork [276]

The question is incomplete. However, if we consider this cell as human cell - the cell contain 23 pairs of chromosomes.

Answer:

Chromosomes consists of the constricted DNA associated with the proteins. Different species has different chromosome number. Two main types of chromosomes are heterochromatin and euchromatin.

The human cells contain the 23 pairs of chromosomes or 46 chromosome. If the cell divides by the process of mitosis than the chromosome number will be same in parent as well as the daughter cell. The daughter cell 23 pairs of chromosomes. If the cell divides by the process of mitosis the cell has 23 chromosome number as the meiosis reduces the chromosome number upto half.
