Its 18 electron
1st orbital : maximum = 2 electrons
2nd orbital : maximum = 8 electrons
3rd orbital : maximum = 8 electrons
2+8+8 = 18 electrons
Organisms that reproduce asexually have less chances for genetic mutation and genetic drift, meaning that if something is introduced into the environment that causes the organism to be unable to survive, it wont have a variation that might make it possible to live.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
offspring inherits are most likely inherits from parents.
The given question is incomplete as the genotype of the parents is not given, so the answer is providing in the followings case:
1. dominant parent and recessive parent
2. heterozygous parents
Answer:
1. dominant parent and recessive parent:
dominant parents can be represented by LL and recessive parent is represented by ll, so the gametes would be L, L and l, l.
so,
L L
l Ll Ll
l Ll Ll
so there are all offspring in heterozygous condition as we known one or two dominant allele masks the recessive allele for the trait so 100% offspring can fold their tongue.
2. heterozygous parents
In this case, parents have Ll genotype and gametes would be L and l for each parent so,
L l
L LL Ll
l Ll ll
In this case, one is pure dominant and two heterozygous whereas only one is recessive so, the phenotype of offspring that cant fol the tongue would be:
3/4 = 75%
