In pigs, curly tails (T) are dominant over straight tails (t). If a pig is heterozygous for a curly tail, what is the pig's geno

Answer:

The pig's genotype is Tt

Explanation:

As mentioned in the question that curly hair allele T is dominant over straight tail allele t.

A heterozygous organism is that in which both alleles for a trait are different. Since Curly hair allele T is dominant over straight tail t, it means that the pig with curly tail and heterozygous genotype will definitely have a genotype of Tt.

Hope it helps! :)

The Punnett square shown presents a cross between two piranhas. Both parents have large teeth.
Llana [10]

Answer:

The correct answer would be C)  75% large-toothed and 25% small-toothed.

It can be explained with the help of the law of dominance which states that the dominant allele expresses itself completely over the recessive allele in the heterozygous condition.

So, the genotype TT, as well as Tt, will result in the production of dominant trait or character in the offspring.

Thus, three (1 TT and 2 Tt) out of four offspring would have large teeth and only one offspring (tt) would have small teeth.

Hence, we can conclude that 75% of the offspring will have large teeth and only 25% will have small teeth.
