Clouded leopards live in tropical rainforests of South-East Asia. The normal spots (brown with a black outline) are dominant and

black spots are recessive. The trait is sex-linked. A male with black spots was crossed with a female with normal spots. She had four cubs, two males and two females. For each sex, one cub had normal spots and the other cub had black spots. Deduce the genotype of the mother. Show your work in a Punnett grid.

Answer:

<em>The genotype of the mother will be Bb.</em>

Explanation:

A punnet square can be described as a diagram which is made to depict the outcome of a cross.

In the scenario discussed in the question, the genotype of the male parent will be bY. This is because he has the recessive black spots. As he is a male, he'll only have one allele for this gene.

In order to have one of spot design for each gender, the mother will have the genotype  Bb.

The punnet square will be as follows:

        b          Y

B   Bb         BY

b   bb         bY

Please help me i don’t understand
Eddi Din [679]
1. Biogeography, the study of the geographic distribution of plants, animals, and other forms of life. It is concerned not only with habitation patterns but also with the factors responsible for variations in distribution.

2. weathering and other natural forces break down the substrate, rock, enough for the establishment of certain hearty plants and lichens with few soil requirements, known as pioneer species. These species help to further break down the mineral-rich lava into soil where other, less hardy species can grow and eventually replace the pioneer species. In addition, as these early species grow and die, they add to an ever-growing layer of decomposing organic material and contribute to soil formation. This process repeats multiple times during succession. At each stage, new species move into an area, often due to changes to the environment made by the preceding species, and may replace their predecessors. At some point, the community may reach a relatively stable state and stop changing in composition. However, it's unclear if there is always—or even usually—a stable endpoint to succession.

3. I don’t have the video so I’m going to take. Wild guess. Just look up types of finches

4. Broadly speaking, different species are unable to interbreed and produce healthy, fertile offspring due to barriers called mechanisms of reproductive isolation.
These barriers can be split into two categories based on when they act: prezygotic and postzygotic.

I tried my best hope this helps :)

Hypothesize why DNA replication has such accuracy
andrew-mc [135]
DNA replication has such accuracy varies. There are many DNA polymerases/repair enzymes that synthesize/repair DNA. Some are more frequent than others. The error frequency ranges between 1 to per 10,000 base pairs to 1 to per 10,000,000 base pairs, depends on the enzyme
