Answer:
1/8 Red, polled
1/8 Red, horned
1/4 roan, polled
1/4 roan, horned
1/8 white, horned.
1/8 white, horned.
Explanation:
Roan cow with heterozygous horned genotype = RWPp
Roan, horned bull genotype = RWpp
Crossing the two:
RWPp x RWpp
Offspring:
2 RRPp = Red, polled
2 RRpp = Red, horned
4 RWPp = roan, polled
4 RWpp = roan, horned
2 WWPp = white, polled
2 WWpp = white, horned.
Hence, the phenotypic ratio is:
1/8 Red, polled
1/8 Red, horned
1/4 roan, polled
1/4 roan, horned
1/8 white, horned.
1/8 white, horned.
Answer:
The phenotypic ratio of the cattle offsprings is as follows:
Red polled = 1/8
Red horned = 1/8
White polled = 1/8
White horned = 1/8
Roan polled = 2/8
Roan horned = 2/8
Explanation:
This is a cross involving two genes; one coding for coat color and the other for horn in cattle. The alleles of the first gene (Red, R and White, W) are codominant i.e. will both be expressed in a heterozygous state (Roan, RW). The polled allele (P) is dominant over the horned allele (p) in the second gene.
According to the question, a roan cow that is heterozygous for the horned gene will have genotype, RWPp while a roan bull that is horned will have genotype, RWpp. Hence, in a cross between these two cattles, each parent will undergo meiosis to produce the following possible gamete combinations;
RWPp- RP, Rp, WP, Wp
RWpp- Rp, Rp, Wp, Wp
These gametes used in a punnet square (see attachment) will produce 16 possible offsprings with 6 distinct phenotypes. The phenotypes are:
Red polled (RRPp or RRPP) = 2/16 or 1/8
Red horned (RRpp) = 2/16 or 1/8
White polled (WWPP or WWPp) = 2/16 or 1/8
White horned (WWpp) = 2/16 or 1/8
Roan polled (RWPP or RWPp) = 4/16 or 2/8
Roan horned (RWpp) = 4/16 or 2/8

the answer is the elephant
Answer:
Natural selection is still influencing the evolution of a wide variety of human traits, from when people start having children to their body mass index, reports a study published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
an example is the ability to endure the sugar, lactose, in milk. In many places of the world, people can't drink milk in light of the fact that their body turns off the intestinal creation of lactase, a chemical that processes the sugar in the milk.
B) coal
C) natural gas
D) uranium ore
Cannabinoid receptors, located throughout the body, are part of the Endocannabinoid system which is involved in a variety of physiological processes including appetite, pain-sensation, mood, and memory.[1]
Cannabinoid receptors are of a class of cell membrane receptors under the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily. As is typical of G protein-coupled receptors, the cannabinoid receptors contain seven transmembrane spanning domains.[5] Cannabinoid receptors are activated by three major groups of ligands: endocannabinoids, produced by the mammillary body; plant cannabinoids (such as Cannabidiol, produced by the cannabis plant); and synthetic cannabinoids (such as HU-210). All of the endocannabinoids and plant cannabinoids are lipophilic, such as fat soluble compounds.
Answer:
The answer to the question is
The expected frequency of homozygotes for the allele in a population at Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium is 0.998
Explanation:
From the question, we have the frequency of an allele = 0.999
By Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium
p² + 2pq + q² = 1 and p + q = 1
p = dominant allele frequency in the population
q = recessive allele frequency in the population
p² = homozygous dominant individuals percentage
q² = homozygous recessive individuals percentage
2pq = heterozygous individuals percentage
Therefore the frequency of the homozygotes for the allele = 0.999² = 0.998001 ≅ 0.998 to three decimal places
The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium states that the genetic disparity in a population will remain unchanged from generation to generation in the absence of evolutionary disturbing influences
