Question 1

In a classic experiment using pea shape, Mendel conducted two separate genetic crosses. In the first cross the parent plants wer

Kruka [31]

Answer:

The law of segregation is the Mendel’s laws or principles explain that traits are passed from parents to offspring individually instead of as pairs, groups or sets.This is a law or principle which states that during the formation of gametes, two copies of each heredity factors separate out so that the new offspring can get one factor of both the parents. This law was the first law in this direction.

Describe how ocean temperatures affect the weather.

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Ocean temperatures can cause large storms such as hurricanes or tropical storms. Warmer ocean waters create larger and stronger storms as well as keep said storms going longer. Warmer ocean waters can also cause the temperature in the immediate air around it to be slightly warmer.

2. Dominant trait: cleft chin (C) Mother’s gametes: Cc

andre [41]

.2. Offspring Genotypes will be Cc or cc.

Offspring phenotypes : Cleft chin or no cleft chin.

% chance child will have cleft chin: 50%

3. % chance child will have arched feet: 25%

4. % chance child will have blonde hair: 50%

5. % chance child will have normal vision: 25%

Explanation:

CASE 1 :

Dominant trait: cleft chin (C)

Recessive trait: lacks cleft chin (c)

Father’s gametes: cc

Mother’s gametes: Cc

There are two possible combination of Gametes ,

C fom mother and c from father= Cc

c from mother and c from father = cc

Gametes of Cc Parents= $\frac{1}{2}C + \frac{1}{2} c$ ........(i)

Gametes of cc parents = $\frac{1}{2}c + \frac{1}{2}c$ .........(ii)

Combining (i) and (ii) we get,

$\frac{1}{2} Cc + \frac{1}{2} cc$

There fore offspring Genotypes will be Cc or cc

Offspring phenotypes :

Genotype Cc then phenotype= Cleft chin

Genotype cc then phenotype = Lacks cleft chin.

percentage chance child will have cleft chin = $\frac{0.5}{1}$ ×100

Therefore the chance is 50%.

CASE 2 :

Dominant trait: flat feet (A)

Recessive trait: arched feet (a)

Mother’s gametes: Heterozygous (Aa)

Father’s gametes: Heterozygous (Aa)

There are four possible combination of genotypes are =AA , Aa, Aa and aa

i.e. A from mother, A from father= AA

A from mother, a from father =Aa

a from mother, A from Father = Aa

a from mother, a from father = aa

Gametes of Aa parent = $\frac{1}{2} A + \frac{1}{2} a$

Gametes of other Aa parent = $\frac{1}{2} A + \frac{1}{2} a$

..................................................................................

$\frac{1}{4} AA + \frac{1}{4} Aa$

+ $\frac{1}{4} Aa$ + $\frac{1}{4} aa$

..........................................................................................

$\frac{1}{4}AA + \frac{1}{2}Aa +\frac{1}{4} aa$

Offspring Genotypes will be: AA or Aa or aa

Offsprings phenotype will be:

Genotype AA then phenotype will be Flat feet

Genotype Aa then phenotype will be flat feet

Genotype aa then Phenotype will be arched feet.

Percentage chance child will have arched feet = $\frac{0.25}{1}$ × 100 = 25%

CASE 3:

Dominant trait: Brown hair (B)

Recessive trait: Blonde hair (b)

Mother’s gametes: Homozygous recessive (bb)

Father’s gametes: Heterozygous (Bb)

This case is very similar to the case 1 as one parent is homozygous recessive and other parent is heterozygous.

Resulting in half Bb and halve bb combination.

Genotypes will be Bb or bb

Phenotypes will be :

Genotype Bb then phenotype Brown hair

Phenotype bb then Phenotype bb.

% chance child will have blonde hair: 50%

CASE 4:

Dominant trait: farsightedness (F)

Recessive trait: normal vision (f)

Mother’s gametes: Heterozygous (Ff)

Father’s gametes: Heterozygous (Ff)

This Case is similar to case 2

it will result in one-fourth FF , half Ff and one-fouth ff combination.

Therefore Genotypes will be: FF, Ff and ff

Phenotypes:

Genotype FF then phenotype farsightedness

Genotype Ff then phenotype farsightedness

Genotype ff then phenotype normal vision.

% chance child will have normal vision: 25%

What is the probability that the offspring will be homozygous dominant? Use the Punett square below.

Alja [10]

Answer:

the correct answer is 25%

Explanation:

the whole amount of squares is 100%. to get a homozygous dominant you must have two capital letters. only one box has two capital letters so that makes 25%
