As mentioned in the question, wavy hair is a result of phenomenon of incomplete dominance where no allele is dominant over the other.

So if we say a man with curly hair (hh) marries a woman with straight hair (HH), we need to find out will their kids have straight hair or not.

Let us cross them:

Parents:                                      hh X HH

Gametes:                                    h : h and H :H

Offspring:                                hh: Hh: hH: HH

Probability of children with straight hair (HH) = 25 %

Probability of children with curly hair (hh)  =      25%

Probability of children with wavy hair =              50 %

So there is a chance of 25 % that their kids can have straight hair.


Hope it helps!

Which vector would be the best choice for cystic fibrosis gene therapy and why?
Shkiper50 [21]

The vector that would be the best choice for cystic fibrosis gene therapy is adeno-associated virus for it has valuable reasons. First, it is huge enough to carry the gene, second, it will infect the right type of tissue, third, it will not cause an immune response and lastly, it infects the particular cells that divide irregularly. Therefore, this vector will definitely treat cystic fibrosis for it can target affected cells, which is a great help in the normal functioning of an organ.

Harman [31]

I'm pretty sure the answer is B. Invest in alternative energy sources that do not burn fossil fuels. The reason I would pick B is because in Antarctica the ice is melting more and more over time because, cars and factors etc are burning fuels which result in more damage to the ozone layer.
