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%)

user100 [1]

Answer:

Chromatin helps regulate DNA replication.

Explanation:

Chromatin helps condense DNA strands to smaller units that can be easily managed during DNA replication and gene expression. This also prevents the breakage of the strands and facilitates equal distribution of chromosomes during cell division (during mitosis and meiosis).

Two true-breeding stocks of pea plants are crossed. One parent has red ____________.
love history [14]

Answer:

Two true-breeding stocks of pea plants are crossed. One parent has red axial flowers and the other has white, terminal flowers; all F1 individuals have red, axial flowers. The genes for flower color and location assort independently.

Explanation:

If 1,000 F2 offspring resulted from the cross, approximately how many of them would you expect to have red, terminal flowers=190

Among the F2 offspring, what is the probability of plants with white axial flowers=3/16
