The two genes f and g, code for body size and aggressiveness, respectively. The F allele is dominant over f, and codes for a lar

ger body size. The G allele is dominant over g, and codes for more aggressive ants. You perform a Mendelian dihybrid cross (NOT a test cross) on these traits. If there is no recombination between these genes (recombination frequency = 0.00), what ratio should you see phenotypes in in the offspring? (note that the parent generation was made up of large aggressive ants and small docile ants.)
A. 9 large aggressive:3 large docile:3 small aggressive: 1 small docile
B. 1 large aggressive:1large docile:1small aggressive:1small docile
C. 12 large aggressive:4 small docile (i.e. 3 large aggressive:1small docile)
D. None of the above

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

As it is given that, a Mendelian cross is performed between two parents resulted by cross the parents. This suggests that the parents or P generation has zero recombination hence the genotype of Parents would be AA and aa in nature. Therefore, all the F1 generation offspring were Aa in nature. The selfing of the F1 offspring will be:

         A  a

A AA Aa

a Aa aa

Genotype: AA: Aa: aa :: 1:2:1

Phenotype: Dominant: recessive :: 3:1

Describe 3 ways seasonal variations can change an ecosystem
Serggg [28]
<span>The most obvious change due to seasonal variation is the change from summer to winter. Some animals migrate to other parts of the world, such as migratory birds. Many animals in colder climates hibernate. In both cases, the absence of these animals leads to a gap in the ecosystem. In regions with highly seasonal rainfall, the low rainfall season can lead to low flows in rivers, and a reduction of certain habitats for some aquatic organisms, such as beaver or aquatic insects.</span>

Hemophilia is a hereditary bleeding disorder that primarily affects males. Why does this condition typically affect males more t
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>Hemophilia typically affects more males than females because the disorder is </em><em>X-linked </em><em>and </em><em>recessive</em><em>. </em>

<u>Females have two X chromosomes (XX) while males only have one X and one Y chromosome (XY). The two X chromosomes in females are capable of carrying alleles while the Y chromosome in males is hypothesized not able to carry alleles. </u>

Consequently, the two X chromosomes in females will both need to carry the recessive allele of hemophilia in order for any female to be affected for hemophilia while the males only need their single X chromosome to carry the recessive allele in order to be affected.

In order words, the presence of a single recessive allele is not enough for a female to be affected while it is more than enough for a male to be affected. Hence, more males are affected b hemophilia disorder than females.
