To solve this problem on genetic dominance, we will need a punnet square.

Let's let P represent purple-flowered and p represent white-flowered.

We have one purple flowered plant with the alleles PP, and we have one white flowered plant with the alleles pp. Using a punnet square, we can determine the alleles of the offspring.

       <u>P</u>     <u>P</u>
p|    Pp   Pp

p |   Pp   Pp

As we can tell from our punnet square, all of our offspring will have purple flowers. This is because the purple-flower allele is dominant and the white-flowered allele is recessive.

Since each flower has a dominant and recessive allele, they are heterozygous.

Therefore, the solution to this problem is D.

Congenital analgesia is a rare autosomal recessive trait. What is the likelihood that the first two offspring of a cross between
telo118 [61]

The likelihood that the first two offspring of the cross will have congenital analgesia would be 1/16

<h2>Autosomal Recessive Traits</h2>

For autosomal recessive traits, two recessive alleles are needed for the trait to manifest while one recessive allele means heterozygosity.

In this case, let us assume that congenital analgesia is represented by the allele b; heterozygous individuals will, thus, be Bb.

            Bb    x    Bb

          BB   Bb   Bb   bb

Probability of producing unaffected offspring = 3/4

Probability of producing affected offspring = 1/4

Likelihood of the first two offspring having congenital analgesia = probability of first having congenital analgesia and the second having congenital analgesia

    = 1/4 x 1/4

        = 1/16

What accounts for the fact that there are far more substances than are listed on the periodic table?
vivado [14]
This is because elements are pure substances with only one atom. When two or more elements are combined, you get compound elements; which allows for more substances to be created.
