Answer:
The correct answer is option (e)-"All of the answer choices are correct".
Explanation:
Fossils are defined as the remains of ancient organisms. Fossils are obtained from impressions left after an organism decays. There are different kinds of fossils depending on the material they are made of and how they were formed. Some fossils are made from minerals that are the replacement of the organic matter of the ancient organism, or are the replacement of mud that came from footprints. Alternatively, fossils could be plant resins or tar that preserved a specimen within.
Answer:
C. 1/4
Explanation:
Let's assume that the allele for the spotted coat is "S" and the one for the even coat is "s". The allele "L" gives short horns while the recessive allele "l" imparts long horns. The genotype of the cattle heterozygous for both traits would be SsLl. A cross between two heterozygous cattle would produce progeny in following phenotype ratio=
9 spotted coat and short horns: 3 even coat and short horns: 3 spotted coat and long horns: 1 even coat and long horns.
Therefore, the proportion of the progeny with long horns = 4/16= 1/4
