It would be "rr". This is due to the fact that recessive genes, like white-eyed, have to have a genotype with both recessive to show up.

The following choices are given;

A. XrXr. B. XrY. C. XRY D. XRXr

The answer is B. This is because the presence of the Y chromosome determines gender- which is male. In addition, it carries few genes than the X sex chromosome. Therefore, in this case, the X chromosome brings in the receive allele for eye color while the Y chromosome has no corresponding allele.

In most diploid organisms, they are two types of alleles for most genes which each on each set of chromosomes and at the same loci. In most cases, one allele is dominant over the other meaning that its presence masks the effect of the recessive allele.  In the absence of the dominant allele, the recessive allele is expressed . Usually, the recessive gene is disadvantageous to the individual.

In humans, syndactyly (webbed digits) is inherited by possession of a dominant allele (S). If a man who is homozygous and normal
____ [38]

Answer:

The % of children with webbed digits is 50%

Explanation:

Given -

Syndactyly or webbed digits are due to the presence of  a dominant allele (S). Then the allele for normal digits would be represented by allele "s"

A normal man with normal digits and genotype "ss" marries a woman with webbed digits and has a hetrozygous genotype i.e "Ss"

If we cross Ss and ss , then the following offspring are produced -

Ss * ss

Ss, Ss, ss, ss

Out of four 2 offspring with genotype ss have normal digits and remaining two offspring with genotype "Ss" have webbed digits. Thus, the % of children with webbed digits is 50%
