In cats, curled ears result from an allele, Cu, that is dominant over an allele cu, for normal ears. Black color results from an

just olya [345]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cross : ggCuCu X GGcucu --------Parents

F1 progeny : GgCucu

Two of the F1 cats mate :

Cross : GgCucu X GgCucu

Gametes :

Gg X Gg = GG, Gg, Gg, gg

Cucu X Cucu = CuCu, Cucu, Cucu, cucu

1/4 GG X 1/4 CuCu = 1/16 GGCuCu (black - curled ears)

1/4 GG X 2/4 Cucu = 2/16 GGCucu (black - curled ears)

1/4 GG X 1/4 cucu = 1/16 GGcucu (black - normal ears)

2/4 Gg X 1/4 CuCu = 2/16 GgCuCu (black - curled ears)

2/4 Gg X 2/4 Cucu = 4/16 GgCucu (black - curled ears)

2/4 Gg X 1/4 cucu = 2/16 Ggcucu (black - normal ears)

1/4 gg X 1/4 CuCu = 1/16 ggCuCu (gray - curled ears)

1/4 gg X 2/4 Cucu = 2/16 ggCucu (gray - curled ears)

1/4 gg X 1/4 cucu = 1/16 ggcucu (gray - normal ears)

Answer : (i). 9/16 black cats, curled ears; 3/16 black cats, normal ears; 3/16 gray cats, curled ears; and 1/16 gray cats, normal ears.

An F1 cat mates with a stray cat that is gray and possesses normal ears :

Cross : GgCucu X ggcucu

Gametes :

Gg X gg = Gg, Gg, gg, gg

Cucu X cucu = Cucu, Cucu, cucu, cucu

2/4 Gg X 2/4 Cucu = 4/16 GgCucu (black - curled ears)

2/4 Gg X 2/4 cucu = 4/16 Ggcucu (black - normal ears)

2/4 gg X 2/4 Cucu = 4/16 ggCucu (gray - curled ears)

2/4 gg X 2/4 cucu = 4/16 ggcucu (gray - normal ears)

Answer : (i). 1/4 black cats, curled ears; 1/4 black cats, normal ears; 1/4 gray cats, curled ears; 1/4 gray cats, normal ears.

The current maternal blood-screening test is called the triple screen because:

Tasya [4]

The current maternal blood-screening test is also known as the triple screen test because of the testing of the three substances in the blood of a pregnant woman. These three tested components are the hCG (Human Chorionic Gonadotropin), AFP (Alpha-feto protein), and the estriol.

For the purpose of this triple screen test, the blood is drawn for the expectant mother and then this drawn blood is tested for the listed three components.

Hence, the correct answer is 'it tests for three substances in the maternal blood'.

A scientist finds two similar flies that have the same size, coloration, and overall morphology. However, further studies show t

hram777 [196]

The answer is <span>B.) Both flies belong to the same genus but different species.

Species is a group of similar organisms able to reproduce (to exchange genes and interbreed) only within the group. That means that organisms from different species could not exchange genes. So, if two similar flies are no able to mate, it can be concluded that they are not the same species. Still, they are similar enough to belong to the same genus, but different species.</span>
