Answer:

a) aaBb

b) Dimples and short eyelashes

c) 50%

d) 25%

Explanation:

Let the gene for dimples be A

Let the gene for eyelashes be B

a) Woman has no dimples (aa) and is heterozygous for long eyelashes (Bb) so her genotype : aaBb

b) Man is heterozygous for dimples (Aa) so he will have dimples and it is already given that he has short eyelashes (bb)

When aaBb X Aabb :

        aB         ab

Ab  AaBb    Aabb

ab   aaBb    aabb

c) Out of the four possible combinations, aaBb and aabb will be born without dimples so this couple has 50% chance to produce a child without dimples.

d) Only aabb will be born without dimples and without long eyelashes so the couple has 25% chance to produce a child without dimples and without long eyelashes.

2. Due to the enzymes released by such microbes, all the materials such as food refuse, tree leaves, grasses etc. are considered to be <em>biodegradable </em>as they are capable of being broken down by them.

3. The materials that cannot be broken down by such living organisms are considered to be <em>non biodegradable</em>.

4. The non biodegradable substance produce a problem in the environment as they persist for a long period of time and also form a major source of pollution for soil and water. Further, they may also cause harm to other living organisms present in the environment.
