nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Zero (0)

Explanation:

According to the given information the genotype of the woman with blood type "AB" would by I^AI^B. The genotype of the man with blood type O would be "ii". Here, the alleles I^A and I^B are dominant over the allele "i".

A cross between parents with genotype I^AI^B and ii would give 50% of children with I^Ai genotype and 50% of children with I^Bi genotype. The children with "I^Ai genotype" would have blood type "A" and the children with I^Bi genotype would have blood type "B". This couple is never likely to have any child with blood type "O" since the mother does not carry allele "i".

Cross: I^AI^B x ii = 1/2 I^Ai : 1/2 I^Bi

At what levels do biologists study life?
andriy [413]
Biologist study life to the extent to which they can uncover, unearth and investigate unseen, latent and concealed life forms that are still many in number, these crawling and under the water creatures. And in experimental sense, many biologists are guided by the ethics in researching life forms. This is to protect and inhibit other biologist in killing thousands of these living organisms and prevent them from becoming extinct. Remember that biologists or any other scientists study because of knowledge and to contribute to the scientific world of making the ecosystem including us into a much better and cultured place and not the opposite.

Hence, there are non-experimental and experimental approaches which are all subject to ethics. In exploring life forms, it is quite unlimited but studying life forms in experimental sense, it is somehow depends on the number of species that the biologists’ study.
