Answer:
Leukemia may be defined as the cancer of the blood cells especially white blood cells. The leukemia may occur due to mutation or may also occur due to the biological agents.
Leukemia causes the abnormal and uncontrolled growth of the blood cells. These white blood cells are unable to fight with infections and causes the bone marrow to produce impair formation of blood cells. The patient shows abnormal growth and large count of leukocytes.
When a BB male and a Bb female are crossed, 50% BB and 50% Bb genotypes are produced and a 100% black phenotype.
The entire number of genes that an organism receives from its parents makes up its genotype. Alleles, which are pairs of these genes, are found. One gene is dominant and one gene is recessive in each allele.
The dominant gene is always expressed in a cross if it is present. Only when a pair of alleles is made up of two recessive genes does the recessive gene express itself. In this instance, the white fur is subordinate to the black fur. White fur is represented as b, while black fur is represented as B.
We can see that when we cross the BB male and Bb female, we will get a genotype that is 50% BB and 50% Bb, as well as a phenotype that is 100% black fur.
Parents: BB x Bb
Gametes: B, B, and B, b
Offspring: BB, BB, Bb, Bb
The genotypic ratio = 1:1
The phenotypic ratio = 1:0
Genotype probabilities:
P(BB) = 2/4 = 0.5 or 50%
P(Bb) = 2/4 = 0.5 or 50%

the radiations that are used to treat cancers are of the gamma type. primarily emitted from cobalt-60 (a radioactive isotope). and it is more controlled than other radiation exposures. i.e. solar radiation which is not controlled.
hope that this helps.
