1.What is the probability that a sperm from the father will contain the PKU allele?
Probability = ½
2.What is the probability that an egg from the mother will contain the PKU allele?
Probability = ½
3.What is the probability that their next child will have PKU?
Probability = ¼ (because each parent has ½ chance ½ X ½ = ¼)
4.What is the probability that their next child will be heterozygous for the PKU gene?
Probability = ½ (because each parent has ½ chance of donating the ‘P’ allele and ½ chance of donating the ‘p’ allele (½ x ½) + (½ x ½) = ½

Answer: C.) Cladistics is based purely on the shared characters between organisms and their ranking in evolutionary history.
Explanation:
Phylogeny is the evolutionary science which derives a relationship among the ancient species with their descendants based upon common genetic, physiological and morphological characteristics. Cladistics represent the study of a group of organisms which exhibit a common ancestor. A clade includes organisms having a common ancestors and exhibit similar traits in them. A clade is sufficient to include the organisms in a phylogenic tree based upon their evolutionary history.
Answer:
ADVANTAGES:
Bacteria are involved in production of many food products such as yogurt, cheese, pickles, etc.
Bacteria break down waste material so that our environment is not permanently cluttered with garbage, dead bodies, etc.
Bacteria are responsible for the production of important essential compounds that are necessary for life such as vitamin K production by E. coli in the gut
DISADVANTAGES:
Some bacteria cause infections or produce toxic substances that are a threat to life and/or health.
Bacteria cause spoiling of food so that it does not keep as long as we may desire.
Some bacteria may cause infections of plants, threatening our food supply or ornamental plant.
