Answer:
Use the key below to report the phenotypes from the provided genotypes.
T= tall B= black eyes L= long hair
t= short b= red eyes l= short hair
1. If the genotype is LlBb
B. Long hair and black eyes
2. If the genotype is TtLL
A. Tall and long hair
3. If the genotype is bbLl
C. Red eyes and long hair
4. If the genotype is ttbb
C. Short and red eyes
5. If the genotype is TTLL
B. Tall and long hair
Answer:
The chemical senses include taste and smell. The perception of a smell occurs when substances in the air pass through the nose and stimulate the olfactory (smell) nerve. The experience of taste, or gustation, occurs when the taste buds in your mouth respond to substances dissolved in saliva.
Explanation:
Answer:
A) 50%
B) 25%
C) Same 25%
Explanation:
a) Smith parents should be heterozygous to the eye color gene, this means, they each should carry a copy of the “brown eye” gene (that we will call B), and one of the “blue eyed” one (that we will call b). Since the blue eye is a recessive trait, you can assume that they both inherited b genes to the daughter. If we draw a Punnet square (Bb vs Bb), we will see the possibilities of Smith having a copy of the blue eye gene (Bb), and it is 50%.
b) Again, with a Punnet square (Bb vs bb) we see that the possibility of having a blue eyed baby is 50% IF Smith carries the copy of the b gene. But since that possibility is established to be 50%, therefore the possibility of the baby to have blue eyes is reduced by half to 25%
c) The probability is the same, it does not have an additive effect, so there is no effect on the number of children
Answer:
Due to change in genetic combination.
Explanation:
The results change as the number of trials increased because variation occur in the genetic combinations of chickens. It is important to breed the chickens repeatedly in this experiment in order to gain accuracy and attain best results. If the chicken is breed repeatedly, at the beginning changes occur in their offspring due to change in their genetic makeup so for accurate results repetition is necessary.
