Answer:

Ben - Y Xc

Jen - XCXC

Violet - XCXc

Seraphina - XCXc

Samuel- Y Xc

Explanation:

Given -

Ben has a cleft chin

Let the allele for cleft chin be "c"

and the allele for normal chin be "C"

When Ben with cleft chin mates with wife Jennifer Garner having normal chin, then the two girl child do not have cleft chin but the boy has cleft chin.

This means that the allele C could be X -linked and the mother is not the carrier but the father is

The genotype of father Ben would be Y Xc

Genotype of mother would be XCXC

Genotype of two daughters XCXc  , XCXc which means they are carrier for the next generation

Genotype of Boy - Y Xc

Explain why the ratio of motor neurons to muscle fibers is greater in muscles that control eye movement than in postural muscles
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

The muscles of the eye cover a greater number and in turn carry out greater fine motor skills.

Explanation:

Alpha motor neurons are neurons that invent the skeletal muscle, that is, striated, so that through the motor plate that is the unit that unites them, an action potential is transmitted that contracts the sarcomeros of the elastic fibers and the z lines. come closer, each eye movement is much more precise than the locomotion of the lower limb, which carries greater innervation in each muscle bundle due to the specificity of the movement, this is how more alpha motor neurons are required to mobilize the eye than a leg.
