Answer:
In some mice, fur color is inherited through incomplete dominance. The colors that are possible are black fur, white fur and grey fur. Grey is the trait that is inherited through incomplete dominance. Scenario: a grey fur male mouse and a grey fur female mouse have 8 babies. The offspring that result are: 2 black fur, 5 grey fur and 1 white fur. But this is not what is statistically expected from that cross. Explain why this is still a probable outcome. This is as a result of mutation
Explanation:
Mutation is the sudden change of a gene, from the above explanation mating of an incomplete grey fur dominance with an incomplete grey fur dominance should not have had offspring with 2 black fur, 5 grey fur and white fur. Normal mating should have produced also an incomplete grey fur dominant offspring
The answer is fertilization.
Fertilization is the process in which two haploid gametes fuse to create one diploid cell. <span>In this process, male sperm fuses with female egg which creates a zygote. Since they are haploid (n), after fertilization, they will create the zygote which contains chromosomes from the sperm and chromosomes from the egg. The zygote, thus, has two sets of chromosomes, so it is diploid (2n).</span>
Classification is subject to change because science is an evolving subject. New things are discovered every year and thus changing the way we understand the world around us.
The control group outs the one that you don't change. The reason you don't change it is because you use it as a comparison with the other groups.
