Answer:

0 : 1 ( black eyed : orange eyed )

Explanation:

When black eyed-Mendelian is crossed with orange-eyed Mendelian, the entire progeny has black eyes. This means that the allele for Black color is dominant to the color for orange color and it masks its effect completely in the next progeny.

BB X bb = Bb ( All black )

So orange Mendelian is a recessive trait and will have genotype bb. When two orange eyed Mendelians are crossed:

bb X bb = bb ( All orange since there is no B allele )

Hence, the phenotypic ratio will be = 0 : 1 ( black eyed : orange eyed )

Why is it important to know the average mutation rate when using DNA comparisons to determine
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

mutation rates can be used to design molecular clocks in order to estimate divergence times among species  

Explanation:

In evolutionary biology, the substitution rates (also known as mutation rates) are used for the development of 'molecular clocks' which allow estimating the divergence times among species or among taxonomic groups. Molecular clocks can be designed by estimating the divergence rate of nucleotide sequences (either DNA or RNA) and amino acid (protein) sequences. These substitution rates can also be used to track how quickly viruses evolve (for example, in a pandemic situation).
