Explanation:
The use of CRISPR/Cas9 avoids the need for protein engineering to develop a site-specific nuclease against a specific DNA target sequence, requiring only the synthesis of a new piece of RNA. This dramatically simplifies and greatly reduces the time needed for gene editing design and implementation.
The gene pool of the population will remain relatively constant.
Passive transport is the movement of substances across the membrane without the expenditure of cellular energy.
Answer:
Option E, Floppy ears are dominant over straight ears; coat color is determined by incomplete dominance
Explanation:
Let the allele for floppy ears be "F" and the allele for straight ears be "f"
And Let the allele for black coat color be "B" and the color for white coat color be "b"
Now, the cross is carried out between the first group having floppy ears and white coat color (FFbb) and the second group having straight ears and black coat color (ff BB)
The 16 offspring have genotype FfBb
Phenotype of 16 offspring is Floppy ears and grey coat
Ff represents the floppy ear , thus "F" is dominant over "f"
Bb represents the grey color which is a case of incomplete dominance in which none of the real trait i.e black or white is expressed.
Hence, option E is correct
