In goats, the gene for coat color is on an autosome and light brown color is dominant to black. A light brown male is mated to a

black female, producing a black kid (baby goat). If they produce another kid, could it be light brown? If so, what are the chances of it being light brown? Group

Autosomal dominant condition occurs when alleles of genes present on chromosomes in the autosomes (somatic) mask the effect of the other allele.

They can produce a light brown kid and the chances of producing this is 50%.

  • Light brown color is dominant to black. A light brown male is mated to a black female, producing a black kid.
  • For the two to produce a black kid which is in the recessive condition, the male has to be heterozygous for the condition (Bb).

Let light brown be (BB or Bb)   and black be (bb)

Parents :                   B b     x      b b

Offspring genotype:      Bb      bb

Ratio:                               1    :     1  (50%)

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The correct answer is "option a. it is likely it will pass to the offspring; option b. it is not very likely that it will pass to the offspring".

Explanation:

In order that a mutation could be passed to the offspring it is necessary that the affected DNA can be transmitted to the following generation. A single bacteria that contains a positive mutation in its DNA is likely to pass its mutation to the offspring since it multiples by binary fission. On the other hand, a skin cell most likely will not pass its mutation to the offspring since a skin cell is not involved in the organism reproduction, such as a sexual cell.

Start with the P generation with the following genotypes (AA x aa). Based on classical Mendelian inheritance, how will a cross b
vampirchik [111]

Answer: The genotype of the generation resulting from the given P ( parental generation) is Aa that is all offsprings in the first generation will be heterozygous dominant.  

The genotype of the parents is AA and aa and the gametes produced by these parents are A and a respectively.

When these gametes fuse, they result in the offsprings with genotype Aa. This represents a dominant phenotype due to the presence of dominant gene  (  a gene that masks the expression of recessive gene and expresses itself), which is A in this case.

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Taproot systems feature a single, thick primary root, called the taproot, with smaller secondary roots growing out from the sides. The taproot may penetrate as many as 60 meters (almost 200 feet) below the ground surface. It can plumb very deep water sources and store a lot of food to help the plant survive drought and other environmental extremes. The taproot also anchors the plant very securely in the ground.

Fibrous root systems have many small branching roots, called fibrous roots, but no large primary root. The huge number of threadlike roots increases the surface area for absorption of water and minerals, but fibrous roots anchor the plant less securely
