Answer:

The fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele is 1024/4096 = 0.25 A-BbccDdE-Ff = 25%

Explanation:

You can calculate the fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele by making the punnet square for each gene and then multipling the phenotypic proportions, like this:

Cross) AAbbCcDDEeff     x      AaBBCcddEEFF

Cross For each gene by separately:

  • Parental )        AA    x    Aa

       Gametes)  A    A         A    a

        F1)             2/4 AA  

                          2/4 Aa

  • Parental )        bb    x    BB

         Gametes)  b    b         B   b

          F1)                   4/4 Bb

  • Parental )        Cc    x    Cc

        Gametes)  C    c         C    c

         F1)             1/4 CC

                           2/4 Cc

                            1/4 cc

  • Parental )        DD    x    dd

       Gametes)  D    D          d    d

        F1)             4/4 Dd

  • Parental )        Ee    x    EE

        Gametes)     E     e      E     E

         F1)             2/4 Ee

                           2/4 EE

  • Parental )        ff    x    FF

         Gametes)     f     f      F     F

          F1)             4/4 Ff

So, fraction of the offspring that will show the phenotype produced by the recessive c allele is:

4/4 A-  x  4/4 Bb   x   1/4 cc   x   4/4 Dd   x  4/4 E-   x   4/4 Ff =  

1024/4096 = 0.25 A-BbccDdE-Ff =25%

Answer:

The fraction of its offspring will show the phenotype produced by the c allele is 1/4

Explanation:

Although there are six genes shown in the question, only one of them, the "C" gene is our concern.

Because different genes assort independently, we can ignore all the others and just think about this one gene. Then, our cross is really just Cc × Cc. From there, it should be easy to figure out that ¾ of the offspring will be either CC or Cc and show the dominant "C" phenotype, while ¼ will be cc and show the recessive "c" phenotype.

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Zero (0).

Explanation:

As per the question, the male snake will have genotype RRSS while the female snake will have genotype rrss. The male snake will produce 4 identical gametes which will have "RS" genetic combination while female snake will produce 4 identical gametes with "rs" genetic combination.

The cross depicting the genotypes of their off-springs is attached.

It is clear from the "Punnett square diagram" that all their progeny will have "RrSs genotype" which simply means that all the progeny will be heterozygous dominant and therefore phenotypically they all will be rude and sneaky. It also implies that no progeny will have rrss genotype which could make it respectful and sincere so the probability is zero.

Lana71 [14]

Answer

Since the whole ecosystem depends on the primary producers for survival, definitely all the sizes of the population in the ecosystem will be affected. The producers(green plants ) makes use of sunlight to supply  the needed energy as food substances for the consumers ( rabbit) to feed on, and the  Consumers is eaten by the top level consumers e.g Leopard.

Therefore, if the population of  top level consumers is decreasing, this indicated that the secondary consumers population is reducing,  due to reduction in energy obtained from primary producers which has dropped due to  the decline in productivity.Hence nothing fort the top consumers to feed on.

Answer;

5. the flipper of a dolphin and the arm of a koala

Explanation;

Homologous structures are body structures that share a common origin, the degree at which these structures resemble each other can be used to infer the closeness of evolutionary relatedness.

-A homologous structure is an example of an organ or bone that appears in different animals, underlining anatomical commonalities demonstrating descent from a common ancestor. It's when very different animals have bones that appear very similar in form or function and seem to be related. For  example; the flipper of a dolphin and the arm of a koala.
