The result of this would greatly depend on the genotype of the parents. If either the father is homozygous Type A and the mother is homozygous Type B, then yes, a mix up has occurred because the probability of having an offspring with the blood type O would be zero. But if both of them are heterozygous, then having a child with type O will be possible with a 25% probability.

Upon entering your house, you noticed the smell of cake baking in the oven. what division of the pns is responsible?
GenaCL600 [577]

Somatic sensory division of the pns is responsible.

<h3>Somatic sensory division</h3>

A component of the peripheral nervous system known as the somatic nervous system (SNS) or somatic sensory division, sometimes known as the voluntary nervous system, is responsible for the voluntary control of skeletal muscle-based motions of the body.

The somatic sensory division is made up of motor nerves with efferent nerve fibers that relay motor commands from the central nervous system (CNS) to cause muscle contraction and sensory nerves carrying afferent nerve fibers that relay feeling from the body to the CNS.

Each voluntary muscle system in the body as well as the process of voluntary reflex arcs are under the direction of the somatic sensory division.

The top cell bodies of motor neurons are the starting point of the basic sequence by which nerve signals travel within the efferent somatic sensory division.

How many different processes can be involved in changing the allele frequency?
Masja [62]

Answer:

5

Explanation:

The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium principle says that allele frequencies in a population will remain constant in the absence of the four factors that could change them. Those factors are natural selection, mutation, genetic drift, and migration (gene flow). In fact, we know they are probably always affecting populations.
