The trait of “freckles” is dominant and represented by A. No freckles is recessive and represented by a. A researcher crossed tw
o individuals, one homozygous dominant and the other heterozygous for freckles. Based on the data in the Punnett square, the researcher concluded that all offspring would have dominant as well as the recessive alleles. What comment would you make about his conclusion?
In the Punnett square, we will use F to represent the dominant freckles gene and f to represent the recessive lack-of-freckles gene. The first individual would have FF, because homozygous means that both alleles are the same. The second individual would have Ff, because heterozygous means that it has 2 different alleles. If the first individual passes down one of its "F" alleles and the second individual passes down its "F" allele, the offspring would have 2 dominant alleles, and the researcher's conclusion is disproven.
New Frontier policies focused on domestic programs to expand education, widen the social safety net, and encourage Americans to serve those in need. The Peace Corps, a program which sent young volunteers overseas to help those in need, was probably one of the best-known New Frontier programs
