Answer:

When two people heterozygous for the trait of a bent pinky finger have a child, the possible genotypes CC, Cc and cc -in a ratio of 1:2:1- being the phenotypes bent pinkies: straight pinkies in a ratio of 3:1.

Explanation:

Bent pinky finger is due to a condition called <u>Camptodactyly</u>, characterized by sustained bending of a finger due to a deformity in an interphalangeal joint. Pinky finger camptodactyly is a trait that is inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern.

  • With camptodactyly (bent pinky finger) C
  • Without camptodacilia (straight pinky finger) c

The parental generation is made up of two heterozygous individuals with bent pinky fingers:

♂ Cc

♀ Cc

The offspring of this hybrid cross, according to Mendelian heritage, can be seen in this Punnett Square:

<em>Alleles       C     c </em>

<em>C             CC   Cc </em>

<em>c             Cc    cc </em>

According to this the offspring will have:

<u>Genotypes</u>:

CC: 25%

Cc: 50%.

cc: 25%

<u>Phenotypes</u>:

Bent pinky finger: 75%

Straight pinky finger: 25%

An animal cell with a 30% salt solution is placed in a beaker with a 20% salt
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

the animal cell will burst

Explanation:

If the salt solution in the animal cell is 30%, it means the water is at a 70% concentration. Outside is 20%, so the water is 80%.

Water will enter the cell. Water is at a higher concentration outside the cell (80%) or a lower concentration inside the cell (70%) by the process of osmosis.

Eventually, the animal cell will burst, because it does not have any cell wall to control the swelling of the cell that occurs as water flows in.
