What is the probability that the first offspring from the cross listed below will be heterozygous for all loci?
Tanya [424]

Answer and Explanation:

<u>Cross:</u> aa Bb dd Ee x AA bb Dd Ee

We can calculate the probability of getting heterozygous individuals in the progeny by using the <u>product rule</u>. Assuming that these four genes <u>assort independently</u> (<em>events that occur independently from each other</em>), we can infer that the F1 will have the next genotypic proportions for each gene:

1) aa     x     AA

F1) 4/4=1 Aa

2) Bb    x    bb

F1) ½ bb

     ½ Bb

3) dd    x    Dd

F1) ½ dd

     ½ Dd

4) Ee    x    Ee

F1) ¼ EE

    2/4 = ½ Ee

     ¼ ee

So, to know what the probability is that the F1 of being heterozygous for all loci, we must multiply the respective individual probabilities of getting a heterozygous genotype, like this:  

1 Aa   x   ½ Bb   x    ½ Dd    x    ½ Ee = 1/8 AaBbDdEe

Shamona, a pregnant mother in Flint, Michigan, is concerned about the drinking water, which shows high levels of lead. Shamona s
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Option (3).

Explanation:

Teratogens may be defined as the chemicals that can cause birth defects in the fetus. Substances like alcohol, lead and nicotine acts as the main agents of tertaogens.

Shamona is drinking water that contains high level of lead. The element lead is harmful for the fetus. Even the small concentration of lead is enough to cause birth defects. The lead exposure can cause the abnormal development of brain and damages the brain of fetus. The fetus has low birth weight also.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).
