Red-green colorblindness is an X-linked recessive trait. Neither John nor Ann is colorblind, but Ann’s father is colorblind. Wha
LiRa [457]

Answer:

To determine the fraction for the inheritance of Red green colorblindness the genotype of their parents must be considered although neither John nor Ann is color blind there is a very high probability that Ann will be a carrier if that is the case the fractions of the daughters of John and Ann that are expected to be carriers of that trait is 50% chance.

Explanation:

A punnet square can be used to determine any possible genotypic combinations in the parents. color  blindness is a recessive X-linked trait in which the patient is not able to distinguish, red or green or blue color. The normal gene and its recessive allele are carried by X chromosome in men, this color blindness appears in the presence of a single recessive gene Whereas in women color blindness occur only when both chromosome carry the gene this shows criss cross inheritance

These penguins are all members of the species Aptenodytes patagonicus. What is the difference between a species and a population
Vikki [24]

Answer:

A species refers to the group of similar organisms that can interbreed to produce a viable offspring. For example, <em>Homo sapiens </em>is a species of humans, <em>Panthera leo </em>refers to the species of lions et cetera.

In contrast, a population in ecology refers to the group of organisms of the same species living in a particular area. For example, the deer population in a forest, human population in a town et cetera.

For example, <em>Aptenodytes patagonicus </em>refers to a species of penguins but number of penguins of the same species living in a particular area would make up a penguin population of that area.
