Answer:

50% chance for each type.

Explanation:

The Law of dominance states that a trait is represented by 2 contrasting factors of a gene in a heterozygous individual while the homozygous individual carries 2 copies of the same factors. Thus, the genotype of the heterozygous rabbit will be Bb and the homozygous recessive rabbit will be BB. The Law of segregation states that the 2 factors for a trait, present together in a heterozygous individual (Bb), do not get mixed and are delivered and separated by singly during the process of gametogenesis.

Thus, the heterozygous individual will produce 2 types of gametes: 50% gametes with “B” and 50% with “b”. The homozygous recessive individual will make all gametes with the B allele only. Fertilization of gamete with B allele from a recessive parent with that carrying B allele from the heterozygous parent will produce homozygous recessive progeny (BB) not “Bb”.

In the cloning process, identify the role of the organism to be cloned, the egg donor, and the surrogate mother.
tankabanditka [31]

Answer: Cloned organism, egg donor, and surrogate mother all contribute to the recombinant technology, and for cases of infertility.

Explanation:

The organism to be cloned is utilized by using its genetic composition extracted from its cells. The egg donor provides the eggs produced after the ovulation cycles which can be used to fertilize with the male gamete and produce embryo in invitro condition and then transferred to the mother's womb where the development is required to be done. A surrogate mother provides her womb for the implantation of the embryo developed outside her body to allow intra-uterine development of the embryo. The surrogate mother can be an animal mammal like female goat, sheep, or even a human female.
