I think causing a physical change
Answer:
1 out of 16 or 1/16
Explanation:
Let:
R = Round seed r = wrinkled seed
Y = Yellow seed y = green seed
Starting from the parent generation or the P generation, the genotype of the parents would be:
RRYY x rryy
This is because the cross is between a parents that are "purebred" for specific traits. This means that the parents are homozygous for the traits which in genotype form is represented by either two capital letters or two lower case letters.
Attached is the F1 generation results between a cross between the P generation.
As you can see the genotype of all the offsprings is RrYy.
Now also below is the cross between the F1 generation offsprings.
For recessive traits, it is only expressed when the dominant gene is not in the genotype, or in other words, the genotype is all in small letters. Since we are looking at two traits, you need to look for how many squares out of the total have all lowercase letters.
There is only 1 rryy out of the 16 predictions. So the answer would be 1/16.
The nurse would most likely disagree with the patient. Pap smear is a diagnostic test that screens pre-cancerous or cancerous cells on the cervix, which is the opening of the uterus. It is recommended for women starting from the age 21 to regularly undergo this test, especially when sexually active. For the 49 year-old patient, she needs to undergo Pap smear test every 3 to 5 years. The patient should note that this test is used to track any abnormal cells in the cervix. When they do, early treatment would still be done in the hospital before it becomes even more serious. Hence, whether the patient took Pap smear tests regularly, she would still need the help of the hospital to treat it. It would only differ in the time of admittance.
