In DNA, thymine binds to adenine, and cytosine binds to guanine. This means that there is an equal amount of thymine and adenine, and there is an equal amount of cytosine and guanine. 

If there is 15% thymine, there should be 15% adenine.

Note that in real life, the percentage of bases won't be 100% equal.

Brown eyes is dominant to light eyes. Mr. O'Ryan has blue (light) eyes. Mrs. O'Ryan is heterozygous for brown eyes. What are the
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Brown eyes = 0.5

Blue eyes = 0.5

Explanation:

Given, B ( brown eyes ) is dominant over b ( blue/light eyes ). So,

BB = Brown

Bb = Brown

bb = blue/light

Mr. O'Ryan = blue eyes = bb

Mrs. O'Ryan = heterozygous brown eyes = Bb

Their children: Bb X bb :

      B        b

b    Bb     bb

b    Bb     bb

Half of the children will have Bb genotype and brown eyes, other half will have bb genotype and blue eyes. Hence, Kellan O'Ryan has 0.5 probability of blue eyes and 0.5 probability of brown eyes.
