Most organisms are Diploid, and as a result, they will have received 2 copies of the chromosomes, or sets of chromosomes, from both their parents. This they will have 2 sets of Genes that will perform almost exact same process, except with different phenotypes.
These chromosomes need to be homologous, in order for new alleles and other genetic combinations to be made.
Answer:
The genotype for each of the parents must be
parent 1 : Gg
parent 2 : Gg
Explanation:
Please note that a dominant trait is a trait that is expressed phenotypically in a heterozygous state, while a recessive trait is a trait that can only be expressed in a homozygous state.
Now, since gray face (G) for Oompa Loompas is dominant, and orange face (g) is recessive, for an offspring to be orange faced, it means that the genotype of the offspring must be 'gg'. Also, since both parent contribute an allele in the pair of alleles in the offspring, both parents must have the recessive (g) in their genotype. Moreover, we are told that both parents are gray-faced, meaning that their genotypes were 'Gg' and 'Gg'. To confirm, let me do the cross
G g
G GG Gg
g Gg gg
from the cross above, we find out that out of 4 offspring, 3 were gray face (GG, Gg ) while one was orange face (gg).
2. The endosymbiotic theory suggests that a eukaryotic cell is the result of one prokaryotic cell eating another.
Plant cells have chloroplasts. They also have cell walls. They are also rectangular. Animal cells are more round and they do not have chloroplasts or cell walls.Animal cells also have small vacuoles.While plant cells have a one large vacuole.

Mutations in the HBB (beta-globin) protein causes symptoms of sickle cell disease.
