In cats, being awesome (A) is dominant to being average (a), and being bashful (B) is dominant to being boring (b). A male cat t

hat is homozygous dominant for the A trait and heterozygous for the B trait is mated with a female cat that is homozygous recessive for both. Both the A and B traits assort independently from one another. What is the probability that they will have an offspring who is heterozygous for both traits? Choose 1 answer:

The probability that both cats described will have an offspring who is heterozygous for both traits is 50%.

Explanation:

When a cat awesome and bashful is crossed with a cat average and boring, it is a crossing where two traits are taken into account that will be segregated independently by the parents, and the result will be produced by the analysing the genotypes and making crossing in a punnett square.

The genotypes are given as for male cats AA Bb and for female cats aa bb. The crossing is done based on punnett square and it is denoted as

 Alleles       AB    Ab

  ab             AaBb  Aabb

  ab             AaBb  Aabb

The offspring is AaBb awesome and bashful(it is heterozygous for two traits 50%) whereas in Aabb awesome and blashful( it is heterozygous for trait A and homozygous for trait B).

Thus The probability that both cats described will have an offspring who is heterozygous for both traits is 50%.

How were aristotle's and linnaeus classification systems different?
DanielleElmas [232]
Both Aristotle and Linnaeus classified animals and plants, considering where the species lived. However, Linnaeus delved further into classifying organisms looking at their morphology, with an ordered subset of the organism's class divided into five kingdoms: class, order, species, genus, and variety. The process of this classification is called Taxonomy, however, modern scholars also consider the evolutionary history of a species, in the classification process.

Anestetic [448]

Diet and weight-loss companies create the illusion of isolation, as if everyone else has met the ideal beauty standard and that “you aren’t right now, but you can too!” Instead of focusing on the health of the customer, these companies promote their methods of weight-loss before any other. Use skepticism if an advertisement makes claims that seem “too good to be true”, are scientifically unsubstantiated, only provide one perspective/way of thinking, or appear to prioritize sales over health.
