Admitting that the "a" is a capital A for normal pigmentation and "d" is a capital D for dimpled chin, meaning that these are the dominant traits, the fraction expected to be albino with a non-dimpled chin is of 1/16.
When two heterozygous are crossed and two characteristics are being analysed, the offspring quantity that will possess the two recessive traits can be represented by 1/16. This is easily confirmed when a Punnett square is made. Considering that both parents were heterozygous, on both sides of the crossing in the Punnett square, you would have the following alleles' combination: AD, Ad, aD, and ad. The offspring that would be homozygous recessive (aadd) would correspond to only 1/16.

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

TT

All tall

Explanation:

If an organism is purebred, that means it is homozygous. That means, it contains two copies of the same allele (trait) at this particular gene. Lets denote the tall allele as T. That means the plant is TT, and purebred tall.

No matter what genotype (i.e. what 2 alleles) another plant has, the offspring will always be tall. That is because it will always inherit one T from the TT parent. Even if we cross it to a tt plant, all the offspring would be Tt. They would be heterozygous, but they would be tall.

What is true of saturated fatty acids?
Misha Larkins [42]
Saturated fatty acids are 'saturated' with hydrogen meaning they contain the maximum number of hydrogen. This causes them to be straight on the molecular level, allowing them to be packed close together other saturated fatty acids. Thus, they tend to be solids at room temperature. Examples of saturated fats are butter and the solid white fat you see on raw meat.
