Answer:

b. aaBb x AAbb

Explanation:

According to the information in this question, the trait for magic ability is controlled by two genes, each comprising of two alleles i.e. A,a and B,b. However, to be able to perform magic, a person would need to carry at least one copy of the dominant allele (A and B) on each of the two loci.

Hermione Granger has magical ability but neither one of her parents does. This means that although Hermione can perform magic, none of her parents can. Genetically, it means that Hermione posseses at least one copy of the dominant allele on each of the two loci i.e. her genotype is A_B_.

This is only possible in Hermione if her parents transferred a dominant allele at each loci to her. This means that the possible genotypes for Hermione Granger’s parents are aaBb (no magical ability) x AAbb (no magical ability). See the punnet square attached where the probability of producing offsprings with magical ability is 1/2 or 50%.

Answer:

In Lincoln Elementary School.

Explanation:

I advise them to send Jackson to Lincoln Elementary School which has 95% vaccination rate for MMR because there is less chances of having measles to Jackson as compared to Oak Crest Elementary School having 80% vaccination rate for MMR. Yes, Jackson is at risk of contracting measles because of no immunity acquire against measles disease by its body. The vaccine can provides immunity to Jackson from the disease but he can't take it due to allergy.

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C/ One reason that a product does not always form is due to unfavorable geometry of the reactants involved. When the geometry is not good for substances to react then no reaction can occur although there is enough energy present.
