2. Dominant trait: cleft chin (C) Mother’s gametes: Cc

andre [41]

.2. Offspring Genotypes will be Cc or cc.

Offspring phenotypes : Cleft chin or no cleft chin.

% chance child will have cleft chin: 50%

3. % chance child will have arched feet: 25%

4. % chance child will have blonde hair: 50%

5. % chance child will have normal vision: 25%

Explanation:

CASE 1 :

Dominant trait: cleft chin (C)

Recessive trait: lacks cleft chin (c)

Father’s gametes: cc

Mother’s gametes: Cc

There are two possible combination of Gametes ,

C fom mother and c from father= Cc

c from mother and c from father = cc

Gametes of Cc Parents= $\frac{1}{2}C + \frac{1}{2} c$ ........(i)

Gametes of cc parents = $\frac{1}{2}c + \frac{1}{2}c$ .........(ii)

Combining (i) and (ii) we get,

$\frac{1}{2} Cc + \frac{1}{2} cc$

There fore offspring Genotypes will be Cc or cc

Offspring phenotypes :

Genotype Cc then phenotype= Cleft chin

Genotype cc then phenotype = Lacks cleft chin.

percentage chance child will have cleft chin = $\frac{0.5}{1}$ ×100

Therefore the chance is 50%.

CASE 2 :

Dominant trait: flat feet (A)

Recessive trait: arched feet (a)

Mother’s gametes: Heterozygous (Aa)

Father’s gametes: Heterozygous (Aa)

There are four possible combination of genotypes are =AA , Aa, Aa and aa

i.e. A from mother, A from father= AA

A from mother, a from father =Aa

a from mother, A from Father = Aa

a from mother, a from father = aa

Gametes of Aa parent = $\frac{1}{2} A + \frac{1}{2} a$

Gametes of other Aa parent = $\frac{1}{2} A + \frac{1}{2} a$

..................................................................................

$\frac{1}{4} AA + \frac{1}{4} Aa$

+ $\frac{1}{4} Aa$ + $\frac{1}{4} aa$

..........................................................................................

$\frac{1}{4}AA + \frac{1}{2}Aa +\frac{1}{4} aa$

Offspring Genotypes will be: AA or Aa or aa

Offsprings phenotype will be:

Genotype AA then phenotype will be Flat feet

Genotype Aa then phenotype will be flat feet

Genotype aa then Phenotype will be arched feet.

Percentage chance child will have arched feet = $\frac{0.25}{1}$ × 100 = 25%

CASE 3:

Dominant trait: Brown hair (B)

Recessive trait: Blonde hair (b)

Mother’s gametes: Homozygous recessive (bb)

Father’s gametes: Heterozygous (Bb)

This case is very similar to the case 1 as one parent is homozygous recessive and other parent is heterozygous.

Resulting in half Bb and halve bb combination.

Genotypes will be Bb or bb

Phenotypes will be :

Genotype Bb then phenotype Brown hair

Phenotype bb then Phenotype bb.

% chance child will have blonde hair: 50%

CASE 4:

Dominant trait: farsightedness (F)

Recessive trait: normal vision (f)

Mother’s gametes: Heterozygous (Ff)

Father’s gametes: Heterozygous (Ff)

This Case is similar to case 2

it will result in one-fourth FF , half Ff and one-fouth ff combination.

Therefore Genotypes will be: FF, Ff and ff

Phenotypes:

Genotype FF then phenotype farsightedness

Genotype Ff then phenotype farsightedness

Genotype ff then phenotype normal vision.

% chance child will have normal vision: 25%

In all living system we can always find basic elements carbon, oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen, carbon is the basic building unit contained in living matter. The percentage of carbon in the mass of living matter is 19.0% oxygen and hydrogen are present in almost all organic compound which creates living organisms.

A salt solution has a concentration of 200 g/L. How many grams of salt are contained in 500 mL of this solution?

noname [10]

Answer:

100g/500mL

Explanation:

1ml is .001 of 1 L

this means that per one ml, there is 200g*.001, or .2g/mL, or simply .2g.

now we multiply this by 500, for the 500ml we are calculating. 500*.2=100.

We can also skip these steps and take 200g*.5L, as 500mL is 1/2 liter. We get the same outcome, so the answer is 100g

Answer:

The five spheres of Earth are the geosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere, cryosphere, biospheres.

The ocean is one environment that is comprised of both the hydrosphere and biosphere. The ocean, being nothing but water, serves as the whole known world to all marine life within, which serves as the biosphere component.

Mountainous environments are also made up of multiple spheres; including, but not limited to, cryosphere, geosphere, with a little bit of biosphere as well. Mountains--which are giant rock formations created by years of seismic activity--are mostly covered in snow near the peaks due to low temperature, which will melt at different points during the year. A small assortment of wildlife call these areas home, such as jackrabbits, white-tailed deer, mountain goat, bear, gray wolf, coyote, lynx, and wolverine.
