<span>Waist-to-hip ratio is calculated by dividing the waist circumference by the hip circumference. 38/36 = a waist-to-hip ratio of 1.05. According to the standard set by the World Health Organization, a waist-to-hip ratio of more than 0.85 puts women at significant risk of obesity-related diseases. As a result Emily is, at present, at greater risk of chronic health conditions such as cancer, heart disease, and diabetes, as well as increased risk of mortality with age.</span>

(B) 25% GG, 50% Gg, and 25% gg

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Green is dominant and is coded by G

Albino is recessive and is coded by g

Two corn plants that are heterozygous for color are crossed.

The heterozygous condition of the plant would be Gg.

The cross is shown in the table attached.

According to the punnett square drawn,

The genotypic ratio is 1 : 2 : 1 (GG : Gg : gg)

                                 = 25% GG , 50% Gg , 25% gg

Phenotypic ratio = 3 : 1 ( green : albino)

                           = 75% green, 25% albino
