recessive condition. As their genetic counselor, you can calculate the probability that they are carriers and that their child will be affected with the condition.
1.) The probability that III- 3 is a carrier (Rr) =

2.) The probability that III - 4 is a carrier (Rr) =

3.) The probability that IV - 1 will be affected (rr) =


Options are 1/4, 1/2, 1/16, 1/3, 3/4, 2/3, 1/12, 1/6

The genealogy tree which is missing from the question is in the attachment.

Answer: 1) P1 = \frac{1}{2}; 2) P2 = \frac{1}{2}; 3)P3 = \frac{1}{16}

Explanation: 1) According to the genealogy tree, the individual III-3 has a P1 = 1/2, because each of the parents are heterozygous for the condition, since one of the ofspring is affected.

2) For individual III-4, one of the parents is heterozygous for the condition, so the probability of being a carrier is P2 = 1/2.

3) Now, for individual IV-1 be affected, the parents has to be carrier. So, this probability, depends on the probability of each parent being heterozygous and that the individual will be carrying the condition, which means:

P3 = 1/2 · 1/2 · 1/4 = 1/16.

The probability of having the condition is 1/16 or 6.25%.

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

The correct option is 3

Explanation:

An experimental investigation would require an hypothesis, aim, methodology, results, discussion and conclusion.

The third option can be easily answered using the "requirements" above.

The hypothesis (null hypothesis) would be different types of grass do not affect how far a ball rolls

The aim would be to determine the effect of different types of grass on the movement of a ball

The methodology would involve identifying several playing grounds with different grasses and then rolling the ball with a constant force on the different grasses and then determining the eventual speed and distance traveled by the ball on those grasses which would serve as the results. Inferences can then be made from this results and then conclusions drawn subsequently.

<span>Sublimation. It's the same effect as evaporation but sublimation means it goes from a solid state (snow) to a gas state. This phenomenon can be seen in your freezer, when ice cubes evaporate the moving particles on the surface fly off to the environment just like in liquids.</span>
