Fur thickness in dogs is inherited due to a single gene with two possible alleles. When two copies of the dominant gene is prese

nt, the fur is very thick. When two copies of the recessive gene is present, the fur is very thin. Heterozygous individuals have a median fur thickness phenotype. What inheritance pattern best describes the above scenario?
A. Mendelian
B. Homologous chromosomes
C. Meiosis

Answer:

Incomplete dominance

Explanation:

<em>According to Mendelian inheritance, when a gene is heterozygous, one of the alleles must be dominant while the other must be recessive.</em> This is not the case with fur inheritance because heterozygous individuals showed a trait that is halfway between dominant and recessive (median fur thickness).

<em>The allele for thick fur is not completely expressed over the allele for thin fur, a clear-cut case of incomplete dominance.</em>

A cousin who has been traveling overseas sneaks a plant through customs (who help along with the USDA, help to prevent invasive
Reil [10]

Answer and Explanation:

Invasive species are not native to an ecosystem/environment to which they've been introduced, which can cause disastrous disruptions to various food chains/webs and other native species' populations.

In this case, your cousin is bringing in a plant from overseas, so it clearly will be an invasive plant. You can tell them the following:

- this plant may take over the feeding source of native plants, causing those populations to decrease drastically or possibly even be wiped out

- secondary consumers that had once relied on those native plants for food energy will now have limited resources, competition will increase, and these consumers may begin to die off

- tertiary consumers that consumed these secondary consumers will begin to die off, as well

- this chain reaction will ripple through the entire food chain and food web, and totally disrupt the existing ecosystem

Thus, your cousin shouldn't plant this organism in their backyard and should instead destroy it.

9. In guinea pigs, rough coat is dominant (R) to smooth coat (r) and black coat (B) is dominant to white coat (b). A rough black
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

the genotype of the parent guinea pigs are as follows:

RrBb (rough, black) and Rrbb (rough, white)

Explanation:

Since the phenotype of smooth coat is present in the offspring, the parent genotype cannot have RR alleles for their coat. Similarly, the rough, black parent cannot have BB alleles in its genotype because that will not yield a white coat color in its offspring.

After making the dihybdrid cross, the probability obtained for each phenotype is given below:

rough black: \frac{3}{8}

rough white: \frac{3}{8}

smooth black: \frac{1}{8}

smooth white: \frac{1}{8}

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
