In buffalo, being boring (B) is dominant to being busy (b). A true-breeding, busy male is crossed with a true-breeding, boring f
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

All offspring will have the Bb genotype and therefore, all will have the boring phenotype.

Explanation:

As both the female and the male are true-breeding individuals, we can say that both are hom0zygous beings, that is, they have the same type of allele for this characteristic. Thus, if the femia is borin, it has the "BB" alleles; if the male is busy, he has the "bb" alleles.

That way we can project the offspring alleles between these two individuals through the punnet square shown in the figure attached below. As you can see the entire offspring have the "Bb" alleles and therefore have the phenotype of the dominant allele, the "B".

How can you use this Document E to argue that Alexander was great? *
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Alexander was “great” because he easily conquered a lot of land and established prominent societies, like Alexandria.

Alexander wasn’t “great” because he was egotistical in naming a city after him and conquering land just for greed.

Alexander was “great” because he was smart enough to cross the river and use Porus’ own elephants against him.

Alexander was not “great” because he tricked a ruler and killed many men in war only because he was greedy and wanted more land.

Alexander was most likely very religious, and it seems that in Ancient Greek anyone seeking refuge in a temple should be shown mercy. Also, if Alexander had killed everyone in the city than there would have been no point in conquering the city except for land.
