A calico cat shows both the traits for orange fur and black fur. What kind of allele expression is this?.

Answer:

<u>Codominance</u>

Explanation:

  • In some cases there are Dominant alleles. If this were the case the cat would only show one trait, in this case, black or orange fur. So it can't be that.

  • Another option would have been Incomplete Dominance. In that situation the cat would have been a mixed between the orange and black color.

(For example; say you have a red flower and a flower. If the offspring were pink, that would be <em>incomplete dominance.</em>  

So it also can't be this option.

  • In the case of a Recessive allele there would have only been one color.

In order for a recessive allele to become manifested that trait from both of the alleles(one from each parent) would have to be recessive. If not the dominant allele would always be the one to show through.

  • This leaves us with the option of  Codominance. Codominance is when one allele doesn't show over the other one(<em>Dominant alleles)</em> or when the two don't mix to make a new allele(<em>Incomplete Dominance) </em>and both traits from each parents show up on the offspring.

(For example; a white cow and a brown cow produce offspring brown and white fur.)

So because the cat has both traits for black <em>and</em> orange fur this would be a form of codominant allele expression.

Find the mean, median, and mode of the following list of values. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
grin007 [14]

Answer:

<u>D. </u>

<u>Mean: 24.8</u>

<u>Median: 26</u>

<u>Mode: 26</u>

Explanation:

The mean is the average. To find the average, add up all the numbers and divide by the amount of numbers there are.

30 + 26 + 25 + 11 + 34 + 20 + 26 + 26 = 198

Now, we divide by how many numbers we started out with (8).

198 divided by 8 = 24.75, rounded would be 24.8

To find the median, you arrange the numbers from smallest to largest, and find the middle number like this:

11, 20, 25, 26, 26, 26, 30, 34

As you can see, the middle number is 26.

To find the mode, you arrange the number from smallest to largest, and find the number that appears more often.

11, 20, 25, 26, 26, 26, 30, 34

As you can see, the number 26 appears the most often.

So, we end up with:

<u>Mean: 24.8</u>

<u>Median: 26</u>

<u>Mode: 26</u>

<u></u>

Answer: Gene Pool

Explanation:

Gene pool is the collection of all the gene and various allelic form of those gene within a population.

Variation naturally occurs among the gene of members of the same species that interbreed.

Gene pool It is therefore the total number of gene of all the members among the population of a particular species. Gene pool is used to determine the level of mutation, variation, genetic diversity among members of a population.
