The ability of the human body to break down the red color in beets is controlled by an autosomal dominant allele. The inability
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

<em>Let the ability to break down the red color in beets be represented by the allele </em><em>B</em><em>. The inability would be represented by the allele </em><em>b</em><em>.</em>

A nonsecretor's genotype would be BB or Bb while a secretor's genotype would be bb.

A nonsecretor woman with a secretor father would be a carrier with genotype Bb. A nonsecretor man who in a previous marriage had a secretor daughter would also be a carrier with genotype Bb. If the two marries:

            <em>Bb     x     Bb</em>

<em>            BB    2Bb    bb</em>

1.

(a) probability of their first child will be a secretor girl = probability of having a girl and being a secretor.

Probability of having a girl = 1/2

Probability of being a secretor = 1/4

<em>probability of their first child will be a secretor girl</em> = 1/2 x 1/4 = 1/8

(b) Probability of their first child being a nonsecretor girl = probability of having a girl and being a nonsecretor.

Probability of having a girl = 1/2

Probability of being a nonsecretor = 3/4

<em>Probability of their first child being a nonsecretor girl = probability of having a girl and being a nonsecretor</em> = 1/2 x 3/4 = 3/8

2. <em>Probability that their first two children will be nonsecretors of either sex = probability of their first being a nonsecretor and of either sex and probability of their second being a nonsecretor and of either sex.</em>

  = 3/4 x 3/4 = 9/16

Which chromosomal defect is caused when part of a chromosome breaks off and reattaches backward on the same chromosome?
LiRa [457]

The right answer is inversion.

Inversion is a genetic mutation characterized by the end-to-end reversal of a portion of chromatid on a chromosome.

In other words, it is a double break then it is replaced after rotation of 180 ° of a chromosome segment (backward insertion).

We distinguish :

Paracentric inversions:  The centromere in the chromosome is not included in the inversion.

Pericentric inversions:  The centromere is included in the inversion which transforms a metacentric chromosome into an acrocentric chromosome.
