Explain why the sum of the coefficients on the reactant side of a balanced equation does not have to equal the sum of the coeffi

The requirement for a balanced equation is that the numbers of each kind of atoms in the reactants must match the number of each kind of atoms in the products.

The number of atoms in each molecule in the equation is the product of the coefficient and the subscript affixed after each element symbol in the formula to which the coefficient applies.

For example, 2 Na + Cl2 = 2 NaCl.

The coefficients on the left side total 3 but those on the right side total only 2. However, the number of atoms of each of sodium and chlorine total 2 on each side

For two autosomal dominant genes, what is the probability that a cross between two heterozygotes (i.e. AaBb x AaBb) will produce
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

1 in 16

Explanation:

When two heterozygotes (AaBb x AaBb) for two autosomal genes are crossed the expected probability for the offspring is 9 A-B-, 3 A-bb, 3 aaB- and 1 aabb. In other words, out of sixteen offspring, 9 are expected to be dominant on both genes (either homozygous AA or BB or heterozygous Aa or Bb), 3 are expected to be dominant on the A gene but recessive on the b gene, 3 are expected to be recessive on the a gene but dominant on the A gene, and only 1 is expected to be recessive on both genes aabb.
