Answer:

B. 25%

Explanation:

Assuming the trait for teeth size is represented by the allele A. large teeth size is dominant and will be represented by A while small teeth size will be represented by a.

Assuming that the population of 1,000 [piranhas are all heterozygotes and they crossbreed with one another:

Aa   x   Aa = AA, Aa, Aa and aa

The ration of piranhas with large teeth to that of the small teeth is 3:1 or 75:25.

Hence, about 25% of the next generation of the population is ecpected to have small teeth.

The correct option is B.

The right option is transitive inference

Transitive inference is a form of deductive reasoning in which the relationship between items that have not been clearly assessed is derived. Transitive inference gives the ability to conclude that if item A is related to Item B and Item B is related to Item D, then Item A must be related to Item D. From the question given above, the understanding demonstrates transitive inference.
