Answer:

probability of the child having attached earlobes since it is recessive i.e (yy)

=1/4

=0.25 × 100%

=25%

Explanation:

If two heterozygous individuals have a child

i.e let the heterozygous individuals be  = Xy

if both traits crosses together; their F₁ offspring will be;  (XX, Xy, Xy, yy)

Xy  ×   Xy

          X             y

X        XX          Xy

y       Xy            yy

probability of the child having attached earlobes since it is recessive i.e (yy)

=1/4

=0.25 × 100%

=25%

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The correct answer is "strengths: inexpensive, easy to culture, short life cycle, large number of offspring; weaknesses: invertebrate model, some diseases such as immunological cannot be modelled, anatomical features are very different from humans"

Explanation:

The fruit fly <em>Drosophila melanogaster</em> is one of the most used animal model for genetic and biomedical studies. There are many advantages of using Drosophila as model, including that it is very inexpensive to handle, it is easy to culture, it has a short life cycle allowing to observe the changes in phenotype very quickly and its large number of offspring allows to include several repetitions per trait in a study. However, there are some weaknesses of using Drosophila to study human biology. First, obviously the fruit fly is very different from humans, it is an invertebrate and its anatomical features are very different, which makes impossible to model some disorders such as immunological diseases.

DNA CODE Multiple options ​
Kruka [31]

Answer:

TAGGCAATCGCCATATTG

Explanation:

T matches with A

C matches with G

Think about it like this, T is a nerdy boy, C is a jock boy, A is a nerdy girl, and G is a jock girl.

If you were a matchmaker in your high school, you'd pair the nerds (A&T) together and the jocks (C&G) together so they'd have common interests and get along well, right?

It's the same with DNA, T&A get along well, and so do C&G.

Hope this helps <3
