Answer:

The correct answer is A. heterozygous

Explanation:

When a white cat has a mother who is homozygous dominant that means her mother is having two same dominant alleles of white color (WW) and as the father is homozygous recessive that means he is having two recessive alleles (ww). So when cross between these two individual will occur than offsprings with heterozygous alleles will be produced which will show the dominant phenotype.

                         W   W

                  w  Ww  Ww

                  w  Ww Ww

So all the offsprings will be heterozygous for the trait therefore the correct answer is A.

A homozygous dominant and a homozygous recessive parent will only produce heterozygous offsprings.

How does the uterus prepare itself to receive a fertilized egg?
frez [133]
The fertilized egg begins a rapid descent to the uterus. The period of rest in the tube appears to be necessary for full development of the fertilized egg and for the uterus to prepare to receive theegg. ... At the end of this transition period, the embryo becomes a mass of very organized cells, called a blastocyst.

The most common form of color blindness, known as red–green blindness, is an X-linked recessive trait affecting about 8% of the
dangina [55]

Answer:

A) Proportion of females with the trait is less than 8%

B) Proportion of females that would be carriers is greater than 8%

Explanation:

Only the 8% male sufferers can give their diseased X-chromosome for the female XX to be formed. hence, the proportion of the female carriers is most likely greater than 8%

On the other hand, the proportion of female sufferers will be definitely less than 8%, for 92% of the remaining male population are neither carriers nor sufferers; and the 8% male sufferers are strictly needed to give the disease X-chromosome for a female to have the trait XX.

Select the most correct statement. The endocrine system is not a true structural organ system. Organ systems operate independent
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The immune system is closely associated with the lymphatic system

Explanation:

The endocrine system is a organ system that produce and secrete hormones all over the body. All the organ systems are interconnected and depend on each other and can be composed of different types of cells and tissues. But is it true that the immune system is closely associated with the lymphatic system because the lymphatic system rid the body out of toxins.

For a gene that determines wing color in butterflies, there are three possible genotypes: BB (blue wings), bb (white wings), and
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer: The frequency of the b allele is calculated as follows: since there are 2 alleles in each organism, total number of genes is 200. The number of white alleles is 10*2+30 (since there are 2 copies of the alleles in white organisms and 1 copy of the b allele in the white wings with blue blotches). So the total number of white alleles is 20+30=50 white alleles. The frequency of the white allele is then 0.25. So the frequency of the blue allele is 1-0.25=0.75. Since heterozygous term is 2*p*q, the frequency of the Bb genotype is 2*0.25*0.75=0.375. Hope that helped!
