This is an interesting problem involving astronomy, in fact, simple physics.
Let r=distance of sun to mars, in metres

<span>Mars had an orbital period of 1.88 years.
=>
tangential velocity, v, of the planet, in m/s is
v=\frac{2\pi{r}}{T}
</span>=\frac{2\pi{r}}{1.88*365.25*86400} m/s, accounting for leap years
=3.371*10^{-8}\pi{r}   m/s

The centripetal force, Fc, generated is
Fc=\frac{mv^2}{r}   
        where m=mass of mars = 6.39*10^(24) kg
=\frac{mv^2}{r}
=\frac{6.39*10^{24}v^2}{r}
=7.26168*10^9\pi^2r

The gravitation pull from the sun, Fg, is given by
Fg=\frac{GMm}{r^2}
    where G=grav. const., =6.67408*10^(-11) m^3<span> kg^(</span>-1)<span> s^(</span>-2)
              M=mass of sun=1.989*10^(30) kg
=\frac{6.67408*10^{-11}1.989*10^{30}6.39*10^{24}}{r^2}
=\frac{8.4826*10^44}{r^2}

Since the radial distance is in equilibrium, the average distance, r can be found by equation Fc=Fg and solving for r:
Fc=Fg
=>
7.26168*10^9\pi^2r=\frac{8.4826*10^44}{r^2}
Solving for the real root:
r^3=\frac{8.48256*10^44}{7.26168*10^9*%pi^2}
=\frac{1.1681263*10^{35}}{\pi^2}
=2.279*10^11 m

Inga [223]

Answer:

<h2>1. DdBb</h2><h2>2. ddBb</h2><h2>3. DB, Db, dB and db.</h2><h2>4.  dB and db.</h2><h2>5 50% or 1/2</h2><h2>6. 1/8 </h2>

Explanation:

As given, Allele for dimples(D) is dominant over alleles for no dimples (d), so D  is dominant over d.

Allele for broad eyebrows (B) is dominant over allele for slender eyebrows (b), so B is dominant over b.

A man heterozygous for both traits ( DdBb) marries a women who has no dimple and heterozygous fro eyebrow (ddBb)

So cross is =  DdBb × ddBb

1). Genotype of the man is DdBb.

2). Genotype of the woman is ddBb.

3). Genotype of the gametes produced by the man are DB, Db, dB and db.

4). Genotype of the gametes produced by the woman are dB and db.

5). Probability that their first child will have dimples 50% or 1/2

6). Probability that there first child will have both dimples as well as slender eyebrows 1/8
