Answer:

- If individual III-1 marries an unaffected, non-carrier female, none of their children will have DMD

Explanation:

From the options, the only correct statements is that  <em>If individual III-1 marries an unaffected, non-carrier female, none of their children will have DMD</em>

<u>DMD is an X-linked recessive trait, meaning that a male individual is either affected or unaffected (can never be a carrier). III-1 is unaffected and if he marries an unaffected, non-carrier female, it means that none of their children will have DMD.</u>

All the children of II-4 and II-5 will always come out with DMD because both parents are affected.

Individuals I-1 and II-1 are males. A male can never be a carrier in for X-linked traits. He is either affected or unaffected and as shown by the pedigree, both males are unaffected (unshaded).

Why do different individuals of the same species have different traits?
deff fn [24]

Individuals of the same species have different traits because they have different genes which code for different proteins. B would be the correct option.

<h3>Variations</h3>

Organisms of the same species can have different traits due to a difference in their proteins.

Genes are responsible for proteins and proteins are an expression of traits. Thus, with different proteins come different traits.

Hence, once there is a difference in the DNA sequence of organisms, different proteins will be produced, and different traits will be expressed.
