The following two genotypes are crossed: AaBbCc X+Xr AaBBcc X+Y, where a, b, and c represent alleles of autosomal genes and X+an

d Xr represent X-linked alleles in an organism with XX-XY sex determination.
a. What is the probability of obtaining genotype aaBbCc X+X+ in the progeny?Can you please explain.

Answer:

1/64

Explanation:

The following genotypes were crossed: AaBbCc X+Xr and AaBBcc X+Y

If we asume that the autosomal genes are in different chromosomes, then they will assort independently during meiosis and gametogenesis. In that case, we can use the Multiplication Rule of Probability to obtain the probability of having a specific genotype in the progeny.<u> This rule states that when two or more events are independent, the probability of all them happening at the same time will be the result of the multiplication of the individual probabilities of each event.</u>

<u />

We can separate each gene in the cross to determine the genotypic ratios in the offspring, and then multiply the probabilities of the aaBbCc X+X+ genotypes to obtain the overall probability of having progeny with that genotype.

<h3><u>Aa x Aa </u></h3>

1/4 AA

2/4 Aa

1/4 aa

<h3><u>Bb x BB </u></h3>

1/2 BB

1/2 Bb

<h3><u>Cc x cc </u></h3>

1/2 Cc

1/2 cc

<h3><u> X+Xr x X+Y</u></h3>

1/4  X+X+

1/4  X+Y

1/4  X+Xr

1/4  XrY

The probability of having offspring with the aaBbCc X+X+ genotype will be: 1/4 × 1/2  × 1/2  × 1/4 = 1/64

Can someone explain to me what chromosomes are, and also explain briefly and understandably grade 10/ 10th grade biology term 1
Vanyuwa [196]
Chromosomes are what the mother and father donate to the fetus in order to compose your basic genetics

The father gives half which is 25 and the mother gives 23


The reason for this is when a baby is being created it is given a gender. That gender is either boy or girl the boy has an added chromosome at the near middle of gestation and the girl lacks that last chromosome so thats why the father gives more chromosomes than the mother

Nerve cell bodies found outside the central nervous system are called ____.​ ​tracts ​nerves ​neurons ​ganglia
jeyben [28]

A group of nerve cell bodies outside the central nervous system of the body is called as ganglion. The nerve is an enclosed cable like bundles of axons. A neuron is a nerve cell (electrically excitable) that receive, process and transmit signalling information through electrical and chemical signals. The tracts are the bundle of fibers that connects nuclei of the central nervous system. The nerves, neuron and tracts are present outside the central nervous system. Hence, only ganglia persists in the central nervous system.
