4. What genotypes of parents will have only white-fur offspring? Parent 1 genotype = Parent 2 genotype = What genotypes of paren

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

All white offspring: Parent 1 genotype = homozygous dominant

Parent 2 genotype = homozygous/heterozygous dominant

For all black offspring: Parent 1 genotype = homozygous recessive

Parent 2 genotype = homozygous recessive

Explanation:

The cross was between a white mouse and a black mouse and the phenotypic ratio of the resulting offspring is 50% white and 50% black.

Assuming that fur color in the mouse is represented by the allele A (a), In order to give 1:1 phenotypic ratio of the offspring, it means the white mouse is heterozygous with Aa genotype and the black mouse is homozygous with aa genotype. Also, it means that the allele A is dominant over the allele a.

Aa x aa

Aa Aa aa aa

Aa = white

aa = black

Ratio of white to black = 50/50 or 1:1

Hence, in order for a cross to yield only white offspring, the parents can either be homozygous AA and AA or one will be homozygous AA and the other will be heterozygous Aa.

1. AA x AA

AA AA AA AA (all white offspring)

2. AA x Aa

AA Aa AA Aa (all white offspring).

In order to produce only black offspring, both parents must be homozygous aa.

aa x aa

aa aa aa aa (all black offspring)

damaskus [11]

Answer:

c) Both are functions of blood, that is, to carry oxygen to the cells and also remove wastes from the body.

Explanation:

Blood is a form of connective tissue and is made up of red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets and blood plasma. The red blood cells contains a metallo-protein structure known as hemoglobin. This hemoglobin binds to the oxygen and carry them to the cells and the tissues for proper functioning of them. The waste products like carbon dioxide is carried by the blood from the body tissues to expel it out from the body.

Why do different individuals of the same species have different traits?

deff fn [24]

Individuals of the same species have different traits because they have different genes which code for different proteins. B would be the correct option.

<h3>Variations</h3>

Organisms of the same species can have different traits due to a difference in their proteins.

Genes are responsible for proteins and proteins are an expression of traits. Thus, with different proteins come different traits.

Hence, once there is a difference in the DNA sequence of organisms, different proteins will be produced, and different traits will be expressed.
