Answer:

Both of her parents have a cleft chin but she doesn't

Explanation:

<u>Alleles </u>

C -  NOT a cleft chin (dominant gene)

c - a cleft Chin (recessive gene)

<u>Possibilities of Genotype</u>

CC  - NOT a Cleft chin

Cc - NOT a Cleft chin (since C is dominant )

cc - a Cleft chin

Now, we both know that her parents have Cleft chin, which means that both of them could only have cc as their genotype.

This mean, if they have children ,both the father and the mother could only give c alleles. This make the possibilities of their child having a cleft chin become 100%.

If the girl does not have a cleft chin, we can say that she is 100% not the biological child of the parents.

How does the President check the actions of Congress?
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:  Congress can override a veto by passing the act by a two-thirds vote in both the House and the Senate. (Usually, an act is passed with a simple majority.) This check prevents the President from blocking an act when significant support for it exists. Two-thirds is a high standard to meet—broad support for an act is needed to reach this threshold. The President’s veto power is significant because Congress rarely overrides vetoes—out of 1,484 regular vetoes since 1789, only 7.1%, or 106, have been overridden.1
