The answer is C) 3/4

Let's analyze separately each of the traits:

Parental generation: AA x Aa
F1 generation:       AA AA Aa Aa
So, all progeny will <span>phenotypically resemble the first parent.

</span>Parental generation: BB x bb
F1 generation:       Bb Bb Bb Bb
So, all progeny will <span>phenotypically resemble the first parent.
</span>
Parental generation: Cc x Cc
<span>F1 generation:       CC Cc Cc cc
</span>Only 3 (CC, Cc, Cc) out of 4 progeny will <span>phenotypically resemble the first parent.

The genotypes for first two traits will not affect </span>phenotypical resemblance to the first parent. So, it only counts the third trait, for which the chance to have progeny that <span>phenotypically resemble the first parent is 3/4.</span>

What is a cell membrane​
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The cell membrane (also called the phospholipid bilayer or the plasma membrane) is one of the most important structures a cell has. If you think of the cell as a really popular nightclub, the membrane is the bouncer. It decides what enters and exits the cell.

What would happen to the dandelion siphonophore population if the tube anemone population increased?​
irina1246 [14]
This dandelion siphonophore is the first we observed on this expedition. Found at approximately 2,530 meters (8,300 feet) depth, we were able to see the feeding tentacles extended around the animal like a spider web as well as the pulsating nectophores, found just below and around the “float,” which helped to keep the central body suspended.

On the rare occasions we encounter these invertebrates, they appear from a distance as a pulsating, faintly glowing, orange-yellow ball that seems to hover just above the bottom
