the ability to reproduce.
Vestigial because they don't use it but it's still there
C = dominant
c = recessive (cystic fibrosis)
CC, cc = homozygous (homo = same)
Cc = heterozygous (hetero = different)
Recessive traits are expressed only when two recessive alleles are present
If you get CC, you will not have cystic fibrosis. (<span>c </span>is the cystic fibrosis allele)
This person would be homozygous dominant and would not pass on the disease because they do not have any cystic fibrosis alleles.
If you get<span> Cc</span> you will not have cystic fibrosis b/c the<span> C</span> is dominant and overrides the cystic fibrosis allele c.
This person would be heterozygous and, though they do not have the disease, they would still have a chance of passing on the disease because they carry the cystic fibrosis allele.
If you get cc you will have cystic fibrosis b/c c is the cystic fibrosis allele and it is not being overridden by a dominant allele.
This person would be homozygous recessive.
“It is a type of homogeneous mixture.” is false.
