Answer:

The correct answer is -

a) 1/16

b) 1/64

c) 1/32

Explanation:

According to the law of independent assortment, each allele of a particular gene has equal chances of getting inherited into the gametes.

In a Mendelian cross of Aa x Aa would give;

AA = 1/4,

Aa = 2/4 and

aa = 1/4

The result of the cross between AaBb x AaBb would be 1/16 due to the fact that probability is still the same AA = 1/4, BB = 1/4 therefore, AABB = 1/16 = 1/4× 1/4.

Now based on this crossing the following:

AaBbCCDd x AabbCcDd.

Take each allele as individual

Aa x Aa would give; AA = 1/4, Aa = 2/4 and aa = 1/4

Bb x bb would give; BB = 1/2, bb = 1/2

CC x Cc would give; CC = 1/2, Cc = 1/2

Dd x Dd would give; DD = 1/4, Dd = 2/4 and dd = 1/4

Then the probability of progeny of the following would be:

a) the probability of AaBbCcDd = 2/4 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 2/4 = 1/16

b) the probability of aabbCCdd = 1/4 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/64

c) the probability of AabbCcDD = 2/4 x 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/32

What are other factors that may lead to clumped distribution patterns in populations?
motikmotik

Answer:

An area with an uneven distribution of food, water, moisture, temperature, or other resources can cause clumped dispersion. This pattern can also be caused by the formation of social groups based on protection or hunting. In plants, clumped dispersion is common when offspring fail to disperse from parent plants.
