Answer:
The question lacks options, the options are:
parents?
A.100% red/white-feather chickens.
B.50% white-feather chickens and 50% red/white-feather chickens.
C.33% white-feather chickens, 33% red-feather chickens, and 33% red/white-feather chickens.
D.25% white-feather chickens, 25% red-feather chickens, and 50% red/white-feather chickens
The Correct answer is D
Explanation:
According to the question, the hybrid chicken has a mixture of red and white feather phenotypes expressed at the same time. This tells us that the red and white alleles are CODOMINANT in the chicken i.e. none is dominant or recessive over the other.
Let's assume that (R) allele is the red feather colour while (r) allele is for white feather colour. Therefore, the red/white feathered chicken will have a Rr genotype. In a cross between two red/white feathered chicken (Rr), the following offsprings will be produced RR, Rr, Rr and rr
RR- Homozygous red feather d chicken (1/4 × 100=25%)
Rr- Hybrid Red/White feathered chicken (2/4 × 100=50%)
rr- Homozygous white feathered chicken (1/4 × 100=25%)
The layers above would be not as old and the layers below would be the older layers.
Answer:
Increase the temperature
Explanation:
Warm ocean currents are directed movements of the sea water. Elements such as the wind can facilitate and carry their movement increasing the temperature of the environment.
For growth, repair and differentiation
Answer:
c. Would have deviated from the 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio
Explanation:
<em>If two genes are linked together on the same chromosome, the phenotype of the F2 generation would have deviated from 9:3:3:1.</em>
Two genes whose loci are close on the same chromosome are said to be linked. Linked genes have higher frequency of recombination than genes that are not linked.
<u>Hence, while genes that are not linked assort independently to produce 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio at F2, linked genes do not assort independently and the higher frequency of recombination ensures that they standard phenotypic ratio is deviated from.</u>
The correct option is c.
