For two autosomal dominant genes, what is the probability that a cross between two heterozygotes (i.e. AaBb x AaBb) will produce

an offspring with the recessive trait for both genes?

Answer:

1 in 16

Explanation:

When two heterozygotes (AaBb x AaBb) for two autosomal genes are crossed the expected probability for the offspring is 9 A-B-, 3 A-bb, 3 aaB- and 1 aabb. In other words, out of sixteen offspring, 9 are expected to be dominant on both genes (either homozygous AA or BB or heterozygous Aa or Bb), 3 are expected to be dominant on the A gene but recessive on the b gene, 3 are expected to be recessive on the a gene but dominant on the A gene, and only 1 is expected to be recessive on both genes aabb.

Time on earth is divided into 6 eras. Three are considered "Precambrian" Which eras are NOT Precambrian?
bulgar [2K]

Explanation:

<u>the  Paleozoic Era </u>

The Precambrian era describes a period of time that pre-dates Cambrian. This time typically references the entire period of the history of earth before the formation of rocks containing identifiable fossils occurred. It covers the majority of Earth’s history and is divided into the Hadean, Archean and the Proterozoic era.

Just before the Cambrian eruption, in the  Paleozoic Era the environment was oxygenated, culminating in an explosion of new life in the Proteozoic Eon (2500-541 million years ago) in the form of primitive blue-green algae named cyanobacteria and oxygen based species. Multicellular species followed later, along with structure at higher levels, and complex life. Oxygen levels grew gradually over this period of time, from low levels.
