The answer is D) 1/2.

Let's imagine that two genes of the genotype can be analysed separately.

Black fur is determined by dominant allele B. In this case, parents Bb and BB will give offspring with only brown fur:
Parents:          Bb     x     BB 
Offspring:     BB   BB   Bb   Bb
Both homozygous (BB) and heterozygous (Bb) offspring will have black fur.

On the other hand, long tails are determined by recessive allele t. Parents Tt and tt will have 50% offspring with short tail and 50% offspring with long tail:
Parents:         Tt         x       tt
Offspring:    Tt      Tt        tt      tt
Heterozygous offspring (Tt) will have short tail, and homozygous offspring (tt) will have a long tail.

So, the offspring will definitely have black fur and will not affect the fraction of the offspring with black fur and long tails from the cross of <span>BbTt × BBtt. But, </span>there will be 2 out of 4 offspring with short tails which is 50% or 1/2.

Explain the role of valence electrons and how they relate to the periodic table of elements?
myrzilka [38]

Explanation:

The valence electrons determine the group the elements belong in the periodic table. For example, the element sodium, Na, has a valence electron of one and so it belongs to Group 1 in the periodic table. Another example is Aluminium, Al, which has a valence electron of three and therefore it belongs to Group 3 in the periodic table.
