1.What is the probability that a sperm from the father will contain the PKU allele?
Probability = ½
2.What is the probability that an egg from the mother will contain the PKU allele?
Probability = ½
3.What is the probability that their next child will have PKU?
Probability = ¼ (because each parent has ½ chance ½ X ½ = ¼)
4.What is the probability that their next child will be heterozygous for the PKU gene?
Probability = ½ (because each parent has ½ chance of donating the ‘P’ allele and ½ chance of donating the ‘p’ allele (½ x ½) + (½ x ½) = ½
The energy needed by a system to initiate a process is called as the activation energy. It describes the minimum energy which must be available to a chemical system with potential reactants to result in a chemical reaction. Hope this answers the question.

Adaptations help the survival of a species as "It increases the biodiversity of the species".
<u>Answer:</u> Option C
<u>Explanation:</u>
The phenomenon that support the organisms to find similar and favourable environment to acquire food, build home, satisfy with weather, feel safe and attract mates to produce more offspring in order to improve evolutionary fitness is called as an "Adaptation".
The three main forms of adaptations are behavioural, structural, and physiological adaptations that are based on the way how genetic variation get communicated. Many species have all those types of combinations. For an instance, behavioural adaptations are bird's calling and migration.
