Answer:
The parents must be Tt, Tt
Explanation:
Based on these results, we can conclude that each of the parents will have one dominant (T) and one recessive allele (t). We can prove this by drawing the Punnett square:
T t
T TT Tt
t Tt tt
We can see that the offspring will have the Tt genotype in two cases, the TT genotype in one case, and the tt genotype in one case, as well. Now we need to do some basic math. Two out of four is 50% (Tt - 50%), and one out of four is 25% (TT - 25%, tt - 25%).
This means that the parents must be Tt, Tt.
D — this is the nature vs. nurture debate
Answer:
A. Parasitism, because the flee is benefitting and the mammal is harmed.
Explanation:
Parasitism is when one organism which is a parasite lives on another which is the host, and gaining benefits from it and at the same time maiming havoc to it. Parasitism is common among living organisms. Animals are most times the host to a range of parasitic organisms which include viruses, bacteria, fungi,protozoa, also flea, tick, mites etc.
Parasites like fleas, tick and leeches live on the body surface of their host, which is make them ectoparasites while those that live inside their hosts are endoparasites.
