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.

As they start colliding with each other, their final velocity is the average of the two initial velocities before collision.

How can a scientist test a hypothesis if it is not possible to do a controlled experiment.
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

In an experiment, the researcher needs to have a control group with an experimental group where both groups are identical in every way except that the controlled group does not gets the experimental treatment.

Sometimes, it is not possible to do a test or the experiment utilizing a controlled trial (due to ethical reasons or no practical method available). All things considered, a researcher may test a theory by making predictions about outcomes or patterns that ought to be found in nature if the hypothesis is right.
