Answer:

D. contact metamorphism

Explanation:

When there's a volcanic activity in certain area, very often it happens that there's magma that intrudes into the cold rock in the surrounding area. The intrusion of the hot magma into the cold rock layers causes big changes into the structure of the rocks. The high temperature and high pressure manage to influence the structure of the preexisting rocks, mostly on the places where the magma touches the cold rocks, leading to the formation of metamorphic rocks. This type of metamorphism is known as contact metamorphism.

The information in the table shows the possible genotypes resulting from the mating of two heterozygotes aadd. the allele a code
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
Admitting that the "a" is a capital A for normal pigmentation and "d" is a capital D for dimpled chin, meaning that these are the dominant traits, the fraction expected to be albino with a non-dimpled chin is of 1/16.
When two heterozygous are crossed and two characteristics are being analysed, the offspring quantity that will possess the two recessive traits can be represented by 1/16. This is easily confirmed when a Punnett square is made. Considering that both parents were heterozygous, on both sides of the crossing in the Punnett square, you would have the following alleles' combination: AD, Ad, aD, and ad. The offspring that would be homozygous recessive (aadd) would correspond to only 1/16.
