As food passes through the GI tract, it mixes with digestive juices, causing large molecules of food to break down into smaller molecules. The body then absorbs these smaller molecules through the walls of the small intestine into the bloodstream, which delivers them to the rest of the body.

F1 generation:
genotype = BW
Phenotype = Erminette offsprings
F2 generation:
genotype = BB (1): BW(2): WW(1)
Phenotype = 1 Black, 2 Erminette, 1White
Explanation:
This question involves a gene coding for feather color in chickens. The allele for black feathers (B) is codominant with the allele for white feathers (W) to form an erminette chicken (black and white speckles).
According to this question, a cross between a chick with black (BB) feathers and chicken with white (WW) feathers will result in an all erminette chicken (BW) in the F1 generation (see attached image)
Also, in the F2 generation got by self-crossing the Erminette genotype in the F1 generation (BW), the following genotypic and phenotypic ratios are observed:
Genotypic ratio = BB (1): BW(2): WW(1)
Phenotypic ratio = 1 Black, 2 Erminette, 1White
Codominance or incomplete dominance is the answer in this question. This pattern of color expression is most likely to be an example of incomplete dominance or codominance. Codominance is defined as a form of dominance wherein the alleles of a gene pair in a heterozygote are fully expressed. Incomplete dominance on the other hand is a form of intermediate inheritance in which one of the allele for a specific trait is incompletely expressed over its paired allele.
Answer:
If a female child has hemophilia it is possible that the mother is a carrier of the hemophilia gene and the father has hemophilia.
Explanation:
- A daughter gets X chromosome from both her parents.
- It is generally seen in males.
- Hemophilia is generally recessive in females.They act as carriers of hemophilia. This occurs because they have a X chromosome that dominates the hemophilia affected gene that they inherit from any parent.
- But, if both the parents have faulty genes ,i.e the mother is the carrier of the gene and the father is hemophiliac, then the chances are the daughter has hemophilia too.
Answer:
City A
Explanation:
The temperatures are very high, but the amount of precipitation is very low. In city B, the amount of precipitation is high, meaning that it is not a desert.
