In cats, coat color is an X-linked trait with incomplete dominance. Yellow coat is caused by the allele XT and black coat by the

allele Xt. A tortoise cost is caused by the heterozygous condition. What is the correct way to represent the genotype of a male cat with a black coat

Answer:

The genotype of a black male is XtY

Explanation:

<u>Available data:</u>

  • coat color is an X-linked trait with incomplete dominance.
  • Yellow coat is caused by the allele XT
  • Black coat by the allele Xt.
  • Tortoise coat is caused by the heterozygous condition

So,

<u>females genotypes           females phenotype </u>

  •   XTXT                →        Yellow coat
  •   XtXt                  →         Black coat
  •   XTXt                 →         Tortoise coat

<u>males genotype                    males phenotype</u>

  •   XTY                   →         Yellow coat
  •   XtY                    →         Black coat

Males only carry one X chromosome, so they can only be either black - XtY- or yellow -XTY-.

Females are the only ones that can express the tortoise coat.

Why is special creation not considered a scientific explanation for the diversity of life on earth?
Rufina [12.5K]
Special Creation is a term that can be interpreted a number of ways, just as evolution can. One interpretation called Young Earth Creationism, YEC, erroneously discounts much of the physics, chemistry, biology and wealth of data that science has observed. Most pronounced is the proposition that the universe is only ~<10 k years old. Because of this, it is not considered scientific. When applied to the diversity of life, YEC's believe all life is the result of special creation events made in less than one week of time, countering the long times for organism development and progression that science has observed. YECs account for the origin of all life through special creation, while science presently has no explanation naturalistically for the origin of life. YECs do not recognize evolution, science presently considers evolution through natural selection, as the source of all living entities. While evolution is fatally flawed in explaining how life has progressed, YECs compress all life development, despite the long period of time indicated scientifically.

An alternate special creation model accepts the long era of Earth formation and life's creation and progression, attributes the origin of life to God's intelligent designed cellular functionality, considers all of the fossil evidence showing stages of radiation events, stasis and extinction as God bioformed the Earth using common design for the eventual consciously intelligent humans.

I need some help please!<br> Compare and contrast covalent bonds and ionic bonds.
Tanya [424]

Covalent bonds are formed when two atoms are able to <em>share</em> electrons.

Iroinic bonds are form when two atoms are <em> </em> electrons from each other to complete the bond. This results in a pair of ions.


<u>Covalent bonds:</u>

  • Have a definite shape.
  • Have a low melting point.
  • At room temperature they are in a liquid or gas.
  • They occur between two non-metals.

<u>Ionic bonds:</u>

  • Have no definite shape.
  • Have a high melting point.
  • At room temperature they are solid.
  • They occur between a metal and a nonmetal.

The number of organisms in a food pyramid decrease as the tropical level
Aleonysh [2.5K]

You need to recognize that the higher on the food chain, the fewer the number of organisms that occupy that level. This is because of the energy that is available from one level to the next has to decrease since it is used for life's processes.

please give thanks! and brainliest
