Answer:

Probability = 100\%

Explanation:

Given

Crossing of a black chicken and a white chicken

Required

The probability of having erminette chicks

The genotype of a black chicken is represented as: BB

The genotype of a white chicken is represented as: WW

The genotype of an erminette chicken is represented as: BW

Using a Punnett square, we have:

\begin{array}{ccc}{} & {B} & {B} & {W} & {BW} & {BW} & {W} & {BW} & {BW}\ \end{array}

The result of crossing the two chicken gives 4 BW out of a total of 4

i.e 4 erminette chickens out of 4 possible chickens

So, the probability is:

Probability = \frac{4}{4}

Probability = 1

Represent as percentage:

Probability = 100\%

What is the best source of nuclear DNA when working with hair samples?
tino4ka555 [31]
The answer is a hair root.

Nuclear DNA is commonly extracted from the hair root. The hair root consists of keratinocytes. Keratinocytes are cells found in the epidermis. As all other cells, they contain DNA material. When keratynocites die, they get converted into keratoid material in the process of cornification. As a consequence, d<span>ead cells do not contain DNA material. Therefore, the hair root is the best source of nuclear DNA than shed or cut hair when working with hair sample.</span>
