Complete question:
Suppose "A" is a dominant gene for the ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide and "a" is a recessive gene for the inability to taste it. Which couples could possibly have both a child who tastes it and a child who does not?
a. father AA, mother aa
b. father Aa, mother AA
c. father Aa, mother Aa
d. father AA, mother AA
Answer:
c. father Aa, mother Aa
Explanation:
According to the given information, the ability to taste phenylthiocarbamide is a dominant trait and is imparted by the allele "A". This phenotype would be expressed in both homozygous and heterozygous conditions. The non-taster phenotype would be expressed in the homozygous recessive genotypes only.
To have both taster and non-taster children, both the parents should have at least one copy of the recessive allele. Among the given options, the father with genotype Aa and the mother with genotype Aa have the possibility to have both taster and non-taster children.
Aa x Aa= 3/4 taster (1/4 AA and 1/2 Aa): 1/4 non-taster (1/4 aa)
Answer:
75%
Explanation:
Dominant means more. 100% is all so like all black. 50 is half-half which is wrong because its supposed to be more. 25% is wrong because its "more" so it has to be 75%
Hope this helps :D Please mark brainliest if correct D:
Traits that are sex-linked are carried on either the X or Y chromosome. If they are carried by a female, they are X-linked traits, and if they are carried by a male, they are Y-linked traits.
Answer: Enviroment
Explanation: Environmental factors or conditions influences growth, health
Answer:
Explanation:
This question appear wrong. Cells do not divide other cells as cells have the ability to undergo individual cell division as seen in cell cycle. However, there are some factors that could lead to increased cell division; factors such as cancer and viral infection can lead to increased division of certain cell types.
There is also a cell organelle present in mammalian cells that facilitates the division of a cell - this organelle is known as centriole. Centrioles do this by assisting in the separation of chromosomes during the mitotic phase of the cell cycle.
