Answer:

Please find how this is possible in the explanation below

Explanation:

This question is regarding a gene in rabbit coding for fur color. Brown fur (B) in rabbits is dominant over white fur (b). However, according to the question, a white female gives birth to all white rabbits, even though the father had brown fur. This is possible because the father is heterozygous for the brown fur i.e Bb.

Hence, in a cross between a heterozygous father (Bb) and a white mother (bb), the following gametes will be produced by the following parent:

Bb - B and b

bb - b and b

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the probability of 1/2 of the offsprings will possess white fur (bb). Based on this result, the white female is able to give birth to all white rabbits because the male rabbit contributed the white allele (b).

nignag [31]

Answer:

Hip joint

Explanation:

Coxofemoral joint or hip joint. This joint joins the femoral head with the cotyloid cavity of the iliac or coxal bone. Together with the sacrum and the coccyx, both iliacs form a bony waist called the pelvis.

Joint capsule: It is a fibrous cuff that is inserted into the bone perimeter of the cotyloid cavity and the neck of the femur. The capsule is upholstered by a synovial.

Iliofemoral or Bertín: It is inserted in the anterior inferior iliac spine. It is directed downwards through two upper or iliopretrochanteric F.s: it is inserted in front of the facsimiles: F. lower trochanter major or iliopretrochanteric: it is inserted in front of the smaller trochanter.

Pubofemoral: It is inserted into iliopectine eminence, it ends in retrocantineal depression.

Ischio-femoral: It is located on the back of the joint. It originates in the subcotiloid canal and in the periarticular impeller. It ends on the inner side of the greater trochanter (in front of the digital pit).

- Round ligament

- Capsuar ligament.

Round ligament: Measures 3 cm long. It is intraarticular. It extends from the femoral head to the ischiopubial recess of the iliac. It has three fascicles Anterior ends at the anterior end of the recess. Medium ends in the transverse ligament of the Posterior acetabulum passes under the transverse ligament and joins the bone outside the notch.

The round ligament has an artery inside it that supplies the head of the femur. This artery is the branch of the obturator artery. The bottom of the acetabulum, head of the thorn femurllion of the ischium, iliac spine is removed.
