In cattle, codominance of the allele for a red coat (R) and the allele for a white coat (W) results in offspring with a roan coa

t (RW); that is, a coat with both red and white hairs.
Cross a roan cow and a roan bull. What are the genotype and phenotype ratios of their offspring?

Answer:

Genotype ratio: 1 (RR) : 2 (RW) : 1 (WW)

Phenotype ratio: 1 Red : 2 Roan : 1 White

Explanation:

Codominance is a kind of inheritance pattern in which both alleles are equally dominant in a gene. This means that both alleles when in a heterozygous state will be simultaneously expressed. According to this question, allele for a red coat (R) and the allele for a white coat (W) results in offspring with a roan coat (RW) in cattle.

Hence, in a cross between a a roan cow (RW) and a roan bull (RW), the following gametes will be produced: R and W.

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the offsprings with the following genotypes will be produced: RR, RW, RW, WW.

Therefore, based on the results of the cross;

Genotype ratio: 1 (RR) : 2 (RW) : 1 (WW)

Phenotype ratio: 1 Red : 2 Roan : 1 White

Please help with just part one and punnet square
Inessa05 [86]

The earlobe trait is denoted by E and e alleles, whereas the eye trait is denoted by B and b alleles. The Punnet square allows identifying the expected proportions in the progeny.

<h3>The Punnett square and inheritance </h3>

The Punnett square is a diagram used to represent the gamete combinations in order to estimate genotypes and phenotypes in the progeny.

The earlobe trait is denoted by E and e alleles, thereby there are two types of gametes in heterozygous individuals.

In this case:

           E            e

E        EE          Ee

e       Ee          ee

Moreover, the eye trait is denoted by B and b alleles, thereby there are two types of gametes in heterozygous individuals.

In this case:

           B            b

B        BB          Bb

b       Bb          bb

garik1379 [7]
The answer would be a panic attack.

The panic attack causes the person activates the sympathetic system that them sweating and breathing fast. 
Rapid breathing will cause many CO2 removed than normal, lead to lower level of CO2 in the blood. Carbon dioxide makes the blood more acid, so lower level of CO2 will make the blood become basic, cause respiratory alkalosis which causes the numbness in feet and hands.
