Zolol [24]
Albinism is a recessive trait characterized by an absence of pigment melanin responsible for skin and hair color. Actually, albinism is caused by a defect in gene for enzyme which synthesizes melanin. The central dogma of molecular biology explains that the sequence of DNA specifies the sequence of mRNA, which, further, specifies codes for the sequence of proteins. Since a gene is a segment of DNA, altered gene will cause altered mRNA which will cause altered protein. Thus, <span>defect in gene for enzyme which synthesizes melanin will cause the absence of melanin and consequently, albinism.</span>

lozanna [386]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The offspring population will contains the desirable characteristics of both fantail pigeon and the fantail pigeon.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The selective breeding is the planned breeding between two organism of the population with desirable properties to result in the new traits from both parents in the single next generation offspring.
  • In this case, the offspring of the pouter pigeon and the fantail pigeon will contain the traits of pouter and it also has fantail.
  • The new generation will be selective breed an it is from the breeding of intra specie organism. If breeding is inter specie than the offspring is most probably infertile.
