Answer: 101 neutrons

An element's atomic number is the number of protons in its nucleus. X has 52 protons. The mass number is simply the number of protons AND neutrons in the nucleus. Since 52 is given, it's correct to assume that the remainder consists of neutrons. 153-52 will give you the number of neutrons.

Hope this helps! :)

In cats, curled ears result from an allele, Cu, that is dominant over an allele cu, for normal ears. Black color results from an
just olya [345]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cross : ggCuCu X GGcucu --------Parents

F1 progeny : GgCucu

Two of the F1 cats mate :

Cross : GgCucu X GgCucu

Gametes :

Gg X Gg = GG, Gg, Gg, gg

Cucu X Cucu = CuCu, Cucu, Cucu, cucu

1/4 GG X 1/4 CuCu = 1/16 GGCuCu (black - curled ears)

1/4 GG X 2/4 Cucu = 2/16 GGCucu (black - curled ears)

1/4 GG X 1/4 cucu = 1/16 GGcucu (black - normal ears)

2/4 Gg X 1/4 CuCu = 2/16 GgCuCu (black - curled ears)

2/4 Gg X 2/4 Cucu = 4/16 GgCucu (black - curled ears)

2/4 Gg X 1/4 cucu = 2/16 Ggcucu (black - normal ears)

1/4 gg X 1/4 CuCu = 1/16 ggCuCu (gray - curled ears)

1/4 gg X 2/4 Cucu = 2/16 ggCucu (gray - curled ears)

1/4 gg X 1/4 cucu = 1/16 ggcucu (gray - normal ears)

Answer : (i). 9/16 black cats, curled ears; 3/16 black cats, normal ears; 3/16 gray cats, curled ears; and 1/16 gray cats, normal ears.

An F1 cat mates with a stray cat that is gray and possesses normal ears :

Cross : GgCucu X ggcucu

Gametes :

Gg X gg = Gg, Gg, gg, gg

Cucu X cucu = Cucu, Cucu, cucu, cucu

2/4 Gg X 2/4 Cucu = 4/16 GgCucu (black - curled ears)

2/4 Gg X 2/4 cucu = 4/16 Ggcucu (black - normal ears)

2/4 gg X 2/4 Cucu = 4/16 ggCucu (gray - curled ears)

2/4 gg X 2/4 cucu = 4/16 ggcucu (gray - normal ears)

Answer : (i). 1/4 black cats, curled ears; 1/4 black cats, normal ears; 1/4 gray cats, curled ears; 1/4 gray cats, normal ears.
