Answer:

The genotype of a woman who is heterozygous for cystic fibrosis Cc.

The genotype of a man who has cystic fibrosis is cc.

The probability that their children will have the disease is 1/2 while the probability that their children will not have the disease is 1/2.

Explanation: If C represents the normal trait and c represents the trait for cystic fibrosis; and if the normal trait is dominant over the trait for cystic fibrosis which is recessive, therefore a woman who is heterozygous for cystic fibrosis will have the genotype Cc while a man who has cystic fibrosis will have the genotype of cc.

In a cross between the man (cc)and the woman (Cc), fifty percent of the children have a genotype (cc), an indication that they have cystic fibrosis while fifty percent of the children have the genotype (Cc) which is heterozygous for cystic fibrosis, an indication that they do not have cystic fibrosis because the trait for cystic fibrosis is recessive.

If the percent of guanine in a DNA strand is 14%. What is the percent of thymine in<br> that DNA?
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

20% plus 20% is 40% of adennine and thymine. From 100% DNA bases subtract 40% and you will get 60%. Then divide this by 2 and you will get 30%. 30% of guanine and 30% of cytosine, because their amounts are equal in the DNA stand.
