The correct answer is A.
Water runoffs usually carry nutrients especially fertilizers from off the landscape and washed them into the wetlands and other water bodies. Phosphorus is a common ingredient that is present in all fertilizers. Phosphorus acts as a pollutant in these water bodies and put the organisms living in the water bodies at risk. High concentration of phosphorus causes rapid growth of plants in the wetlands and lead to depletion of oxygen leading to the death of organisms living in the wetlands.
Due to this occurrence, the Florida government has taken steps and enact several laws to ensure that the phosphorus pollution is arrested in order to preserve the wetlands.

rodikova [14]

The probability of the offspring of a heterozygous father and homzygous mother having five fingers is 50%.

<h3>How to calculate genotype of a cross?</h3>

According to this question, a gene coding for the number of fingers in humans is involved. The allele for six fingers (F) is the dominant trait while the allele for five fingers (f) is the recessive trait.

If a cross between a heterozygous father that posseses a genotype of Ff and a homzygous mother that posseses a genotype of ff, the following offsprings will be produced:

  • Ff
  • Ff
  • ff
  • ff

This shows that the probability of the offspring of a heterozygous father and homzygous mother having five fingers is ½ (50%).
