Answer:

<em> a) There is a 25% chance that their next child will be Rh-.</em>

<em>b) There is a 3/8  chance for a Rh+ girl</em>

Explanation:

As we know from the question that Rh is a dominant gene. A person having only one allele for the gene will show its effect as it is the dominant character.

This means that for a person to lack the Rh factor, it shall not have any allele with the Rh factor.

To illustrate the result, lets draw a punnet square:

            Rh+         Rh-

Rh+    Rh+/Rh+   Rh+/Rh-

Rh-     Rh+/Rh-    Rh-/Rh-

For the probability for it to be a girl, we know that there are 50-50 chances for the next baby to be a boy or a girl. The chance of being Rh+ are 75% for the next baby.

Hence,

3/4 multiplied by 1/2 is 3/8 ,which is the chance for the next baby to be a girl with Rh+ factor.

Why did Mendel prevent his plants from self-pollinating?
iVinArrow [24]
<span>The answer is to control the crossing of the traits.

The idea of preventing plants from self-pollinating is to control the crossing of the traits. If plants were self-pollinating, he could not know if the traits are inherited from the same plant or from the other. By preventing this, he could cross parents with known phenotype and that way learn about crossing process and inheriting process.</span>

The _____ is commonly called bark. <br> epidermis<br> periderm<br> cuticle<br> vascular cambium
Gelneren [198K]
The correct answer should be the Periderm.

It is not as simple as this, of course and you would be wise to know that periderm is just a part of the overall concept that is bark, because bark is not a biological term.
