It is called PANGEA THE SUPERCONTINENT
<span>F- allele for freckles
f- </span><span>allele without freckles
1) The man is heterozygote and has freckles, its indicating that the allele for freckles is dominant.
A cross between him and a woman who is also </span><span>heterozygote: Ff x Ff
it would result in the following probabilities:
- 1/4 - homozygote with freckles: FF
- 2/4 - </span><span>heterozygote with freckles: Ff
- 1/4- </span><span>homozygote without freckles:ff
Their son would have a probability of 75% of being born with freckles.
2) The cross resulted in this probabilities:
</span><span><span>- 1/4 - homozygote with freckles: FF
- 2/4 - </span><span>heterozygote with freckles: Ff
- 1/4- </span><span>homozygote without freckles:ff
So, the chance of being born heterozygote for this gene is 2/4, which is the same as half (50%).

<u>Answer:</u>
<em>The purpose of genetically modified crops is increasing the food supply. </em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
<em>When crops are attacked by pests the yield of the crops reduces.</em> The natural pest tackling adaptations of the plant is not just enough to check the invasion of crops by pests. Introducing feature of pest resistance into the <em>genes of plant species will make them pest resistant.</em>
Genetic modification is the method used to achieve this objective. In genetic modification a previously absent feature is introduced into a plant species by various scientific techniques.<em> This feature can be pest resistance, chemical resistance, improved nutrient profile etc. </em>
