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).

Alla [95]

Answer:

The eukaryotes, bacteria, and archaea that live in and on the human body are called normal microbiota. When they were originally discovered, scientists thought that the relationship between these organisms was parasitic because they thought that the organisms benefit from living on the host but did not help the host. In recent years, researchers have determined that most of our resident microbes derive and give benefit to the host. This makes the relationship between host and microbe one of mutualism. Pathogenic, on the other hand, are microbes that cause diseases.

For linked genes A, B, and C, the map distance A–B is 5 map units and the map distance B–C is 25 map units. If there are 10 doub
vitfil [10]

Answer:

<h2>0.2 </h2>

Explanation:

Given:

Distance between A-B = 5 map unit,

Distance between B-C= 25,

The value of coefficient of coincidence is=  0.01/0.0125 = 0.8,  

so the interference is 1 - 0.8 = 0.2.

The positive value of  interference  confirms that the genes are linked, if it value is negative , then shows that the genes are unlinked
