Of the babies that survive, however, few will have birth defects related to the exposure, regardless of how much radiation they were exposed to. Large radiation doses to the fetus during the more sensitive stages of development (between weeks 2 and 18 of pregnancy) can cause birth defects, especially to the brain.

HOPE THAT HELPED :)

Polydactyly is a dominant trait. what symbol on a pedigree chart would represent a male who has polydactyly
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

The right answer is a colored square (or shaded).

Polydactyly is defined as the presence of one or more extra fingers in the hand or one or more toes in the foot.

It is a dominant trait, it means that the heterozygotes will express the trait.

In general, healthy men are represented by white squares, while sick men are represented by colored squares (most often in black).
