Fur color is an inherited trait controlled by one pair of alleles where one form is dominant over the other. The fur color is ei

ther brown or gray. Two brown animals mate and produce 12 offspring. Three (25 percent) of the offspring produced are gray and nine (75 percent) are brown.
Based on the above data answer the follow questions

Determine which fur color is dominant and which is recessive.

Assign letter symbols for the alleles in your answer.

Answer the questions using at least two or three complete sentences.

1) Brown fur colour is dominant, gray colour is recessive.

2) Alleles for brown colour is Bb and alleles for gray colour is bb.

3) The parents are heterozygous dominant that is each one of them has one allele for recessive trait gray colour.

Explanation:

Alleles for fur colour brown is dominant

Alleles for fur colour gray is recessive.

Genotype for brown is BB, Bb

genotype for gray colour is bb

Two brown mated producing gray offspring must be heterozygous. the punnet square shows:

    B  b

B BB Bb

b Bb  bb

75% of offspring are brown

25% of offspring are gray      3:1 phenotypic ratio, genotypic ratio 1:2:1

From the punnet square

The brown colour is dominant.

The gray colour is recessive.

Alleles gray colour is bb

alleles for brown is BB, Bb

The parents are heterozygous that is why when two recessive alleles combine of either parents in a progeny gray colour is expressed.

qaws [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

Based on the scenario being described within the question it can be said that the most likely reason for this misconception would be that the spiral galaxies looked like clouds of gas and dust through telescopes because of their distance from Earth. During that time telescopes were still not as advanced and could only see so much, nowadays they are much more advanced and these galaxies are being analyzed and understood more clearly.

The secretions of the adrenal medulla act to supplement the effects of ________.
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

sympathetic stimulation

Explanation:

Under stress or emergency conditions, the preganglionic neurons of the sympathetic division release acetylcholine. Acetylcholine stimulates secretion and release of epinephrine and norepinephrine from the adrenal medulla. These hormones enhance the effects of the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) during stress. Epinephrine and norepinephrine augment the fight-or-flight response as they increase the heart rate and force of contraction, the output of the heart, and blood pressure. They also increase blood supply to the heart, liver, and adipose tissue. The airways to lungs become dilated and there are increase blood levels of glucose and fatty acids.

From the big bang theory, after cooling the debris, allowed the formation of the following
galben [10]

Debris (Hydrogen and helium) from the big bang gravitationally clumped together, and frequently these clumps got big enough to start fusion in their centers and form stars.

What is big bang theory?

The Big Bang theory explains how the cosmos expanded from a highly dense and hot starting condition. The evolution of the observable cosmos from the earliest known times up to its later large-scale shape is explained by this prevalent cosmological model. A wide range of observable phenomena, such as the quantity of light elements, the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation, and large-scale structure, are all thoroughly explained by the model.

Eventually, the large gaseous balls fuse hydrogen into heavier elements, which causes them to become stars. The periodic table's iron is created when stars combine light elements to create heavier ones.

The remaining elements of the periodic table are created as a result of the stars exploding, producing white dwarfs that explode, or forming neutron stars that collide and explode. The remaining hydrogen gas is now "contaminated" by this other material, and some of it forms an accretion disk in which planets form when it compresses under gravity.

What part of a plant cell responds to turgor pressure? *
IgorC [24]

Answer:

Cell wall. The plant cell wall accounts for the turgidity and the rigidity in plants. The cell wall protects the plant cell from bursting due to the influx of water. Rather than bursting, the cell is able to withstand the osmotic pressure exerted by the water molecules.
