In chickens the dominant allele Cr produces the creeper phenotype (having short legs). However, the creeper allele is lethal in

the homozygous condition. If two creepers are mated, what proportion of the living progeny will be creepers?

Answer:

66.6% of the living progeny would be creepers

Explanation:

The creeper allele is Cr for both parents this means that there is a 50% chance that they will pass the C or r trait to their progeny. In this scenario the deleterious inheritance of rr will be 25% so this will not be factored in this answer. The other progeny is CC 25% and Cr 50% for genotype only

The new calculation for living progeny is this: Of the chances of three living progeny there could be one normal CC and two creepers Cr. This means that 33.3% of the living progeny is normal CC and 66.6% of the living progeny are creepers Cr.

Which of the following sequences describes the general life cycle of a eukaryotic organism? a. 1N meiosis 2N fertilization 1N b.
ehidna [41]

Answer:

b. 2N meiosis 1N fertilization 2N

Explanation:

In eukaryotic organisms, gamete mother cells are diploid (2N) and have two complete sets of chromosomes. Meiosis in male and female gamete mother cells form haploid male and female gametes (N) respectively. This occurs since meiosis reduces the number of the chromosome to half in the daughter cells. The fusion of haploid male and female gametes during fertilization restores the diploid chromosome number of the species and forms diploid zygote (2N). Repeated mitotic divisions in the diploid zygote form the diploid organism.
