<h2>Allelic frequency </h2>
Explanation:
The B allele will become more common only if the individuals reach reproductive ages
Since the individuals with allele B have much greater reproductive success therefore once they reach the reproductive age, success to reproduce new individuals will be higher
The offsprings will carry on the allele(B allele) and pass on to the next generation
Even if the parental individuals die because of shorter life span the offsprings produced in each generation will pass on the allele to their subsequent generation
the answer is a.
i say this is the answer because whenever you’re doing a scientific hypothesis you’re mostly observing and making assumptions.
Answer:
When replication mistakes are not corrected, they may result in mutations, which sometimes can have serious consequences.
Explanation:
Answer:
Considering the <u>whole progeny</u> (100%), there will be
- 25% Black male kittens, XBY
- 0% Calico Male kittens
- 25% Calico female kittens, XBXR
Explanation:
<u>Available data:</u>
- The gene for Calico (multicolored) cats is an x-linked trait and codominant
- Calico Females receive a "B" and an "R" gene, and have black and orange splotches on white coats. Their genotype is XBXR.
- Males can only be black or orange, but never calico. Their genotype is XBY and XRY
Cross: a female calico cat with a black male
Parentals) XBXR x XBY
Gametes) XB XR XB Y
Punnett square) XB XR
XB XBXB XBXR
Y XBY XRY
F1) Among the whole progeny:
- 2/4 = 50% will be black (female XBXB and male XBY)
- 1/4 = 25% will be Calico (female XBXR)
- 1/4 = 25% will be Orange (male XRY)
Among females:
- 1/2 = 50% of females will be black, XBXB
- 1/2 = 50% of females will be Calico, XBXR
Among males:
- 1/2 = 50% of males will be black, XBY
- 1/2 = 50% of males will be orange, XRY
