Answer:
1. The parents genotypes could have been BO and AO
2. wire-hair
Explanation:
There are four possible blood types which are type A, B, AB, O. blood group is the classification of blood based on the presence or the absence of inherited antigenic substances on the surface of the red blood cells. They have hereditary basis and also rely on a series of alternative genes sometimes used in solving dispute of parental heritage. With the four possible blood groups, there are six possible genotypes and these are:
Blood type possible genotypes
Type A AA, AO
Type B BB, BO
Type AB AB
Type O OO
Thus, for parents with blood type B and A to give birth to a child with blood type O, it means their genotype could have been both BO and AO for them to be able to produce a child with OO. a cross between these two could give rise to OO.
Question 2
Wire hair is dominant (S) to smooth (s), thus wire hair could be in the homozygous (SS) and heterozygous form (Ss) and the smooth hair can only be expressed in the homozygous recessive form (ss).
thus, in a cross between homozygous wire haired and smooth haired, we will have:
homozygous wire haired homozygous smooth haired
P gen SS x ss
F1 gen. Ss
phenotype: wire haired

When the temperature of the air becomes almost equal to the dew point the air becomes saturated and the relative humidity during this condition becomes 100%. If the temperature of the air decrease below the dew point the relative humidity will be 100% or exceeds 100%. This condition, when the temperature of the air decreases below the dew point is called supersaturation but most of the time the temperature of the air will be lower than the dew point.
Answer:
a. A hypothesis that does not generate a testable prediction is not useful.
Explanation:
In the scientific method, we generate a hypothesis to explain a phenomenon. After this, it is necessary to create a method to test the hypothesis and make predictions. Moving forward, we test this methodology, generating results and reject or not reject the hypothesis. If the hypothesis can't be tested, the scientific method can't be applied.
