If you look at a Punnet square of this, you can determine the possible phenotypes. Lets assign B for brown eyes, b for blue eyes, H for right hand and h for left hand. 

The mother is blue eyed and left handed which are both recessive traits. This means that her genotype would be bbhh. Now the father is heterozygous for both, which means he has a dominant and recessive allele for each trait. His genotype would then be BbHh

The Punnet square should look like the table below:

Mother:bbhh
Father:BbHh

         bh          bh        bh        bh
BH  BbHh    BbHh    BbHh   BbHh   
Bh   Bbhh     Bbhh    Bbhh    Bbhh
bH   bbHh     bbHh    bbHh    bbHh
bh   bbhh      bbhh     bbhh     bbhh

Based on the Punnet square, you have 4 possible genotypic combinations and 4 possible phenotypic combinations.

BbHh: Brown-eyed, right-handed
Bbhh:  Brown-eyed, left-handed
bbHh   Blue-eyed, right handed
bbhh    Blue-eyed, left-handed

The birth rate was greater than the death rate and the immigration rate was greater than the emigration rate. Options B and D are correct.

<h3>Population growth</h3>

From the illustrated image, the world experienced an upward growth in population between 1950 and 2010.

In order for population growth to occur:

  • the birth rate must exceed the death rate
  • immigration must exceed emigration

Either or both of the above conditions will lead to a growth in the population.

Thus, options B and D are correct.

Should the FDA should give Aquabounty permission to grow and sell transgenic salmon? Why or why not?
True [87]

Answer:

Yes it should be approved

Explanation:

The FDA should give Aquabounty permission to grow and sell transgenic salmon because studies have shown that transgenic salmons which are genetically modified are harmless. This finding has allayed the fears of the people. Permission to grow and sell this type of salmons will make it easier for transportation to other parts of the country because it doesn’t necessarily have to come from the sea. It also ensures there is increased availability of the products all over the country.
