A shift to the right in the hemoglobin dissociation curve means that: the affinity of hemoglobin for O2 has decreased. the CO2 l

evels in the blood have decreased. the pH of the blood has increased. the hemoglobin protein has denatured. less O2 is released by hemoglobin to the body cells.

Answer:

The correct answer is - the affinity of hemoglobin for O2 has decreased.

Explanation:

The oxyhemoglobin dissociation curve or hemoglobin dissociation curve is the graphical representation of the proportion of hemoglobin in its saturated form on the y-axis against the prevailing oxygen tension P0 on the x-axis.

A shift of the curve to the right side indicates the hemoglobin has a reduced or less oxygen affinity. It occurs in cases where oxygen needs to be released such as the placenta for breathing of the fetus and muscles.

Suppose that allele D produces tiny ears and allele d produces normal ears. A heterozygous male with the Dd genotype mates with
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is 35 percent.

Explanation:

Allele D produced tiny ears, and allele d produces normal ones. If a heterozygous male with Dd mates with the homozygous female with dd, then generally, the expected offspring produced will be 50 percent with tiny ears, and 50 percent with normal ears.  

However, in the given case, the penetrance is 70 percent. Thus, the probability of the offspring with tiny ears will be:  

Penetrance = 70 %

Probability = 70 % of 50 % of 100

= 70/100 * 50/100 * 100

= 35 %

Hence, the probability of the offspring with tiny ears is 35%.
