Answer: hopefully this helps? :)
Explanation:The base pairs are stabilized by hydrogen bonds; adenine and thymine form two hydrogen bonds between them, whereas cytosine and guanine form three hydrogen bonds between them. Figure 7. Hydrogen bonds form between complementary nitrogenous bases on the interior of DNA
Answer: 1/16, or approximately 6.25% (see explanation below)
Explanation:
Answering this question requires two steps.
First, we need to figure out the probability that this couple will have a child with albinism in the first place. We know the following:
- Both parents are unaffected.
- The couple has already had one affected child.
- Albinism follows an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern.
Let ( M = normal gene ) and ( m = mutated gene ). Since the condition is recessive, the affected child can be assumed to have a “mm” genotype. Barring the possibility of a de novo mutation (which are assumed to be rare), the affected child must have inherited one ”m” allele from each parent. Since both of them are unaffected, however, we can assume that they are both carriers (genotype “Mm”). In conclusion, 1/4 of their offspring (25%) <em>for any given pregnancy</em> may be expected to have albinism. See the resulting Punnett square:
<u> | M | m </u>
<u>M | MM | Mm </u>
<u>m | Mm | mm </u>
Note that the question asks about the probability that not one but two consecutive births result in affected children. Since it can be assumed that both events are independent (meaning: the outcome of a pregnancy does not influence the outcome of following ones), we may apply the rule of multiplication for probabilities. The final answer is therefore 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16.
D genes are present on chromosomes and control traits in an individual
A population is essentially just a collection of all living things in one category. People are one population, insects are another, etc. Communities are "more organized" populations. Soccer players hang out with soccer players, spiders hang out with spiders. We split into "our people" within our population.
I know that may be a little confusing, but if you have anymore questions feel free to ask. I hope I was able to help. Best of luck!
