<span>Using a genetic cross, we can look at the following A = brown a = White, B = Tall, b = small With the capital letters being the dominant allele A a B AB aB b Ab ab The allele we are looking for is Ab which as 1/4 chance To work out how many are in 2/6 also (1/3) we do 1/4 x 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/64</span>

When the goats have one gene that codes for color, where A is brown and a is white. The goats also have another gene that codes for height, where B is tall and b is short. If these two genes are unlinked, then the probability that a cross between AABB x aabb parents will produce brown and short is 1/16.

Further explanation

Cross

When we cross two goats of AABB and aabb gene pair then in first filial generation all the individual has AaBb genes and will be brown and tall. But when the members of first filial generation are crossed with one another (cross between AaBb x AaBb) then the progeny of second filial generation will have the both parental combinations along with new combinations with a phenotypic ratio 9:3:3:1 brown and tall 9, brown and short 3, white and tall 3, white and short 1. The probability of white and short will be ¼ x ¼ = 1/16 because the probability of white goats is 1/4 and that of short goats is also ¼.  

Probability

It is the chance of an event to occur. While the joint probability is the product of the individual probabilities of each event.

The factor that CITES fail to consider when determining which species to cover is the Ecosystem sustainability.
A sustainable ecosystem is a biological environment with a series of habitats that is able to thrive and also support itself without outside influence. it is the capacity of the biosphere to meet the needs of the present generation, without hindering future generations from being able to meet their needs.

If you increase the number of water molecules in the extracellular fluid, will the membrane move to the right or the left in the
Igoryamba

Answer:

The membrane will move to the left in view of the applied pressure.

Explanation:

The scenario described can be perfectly illustrated through understanding the concept of osmosis.

Osmosis can be defined as the movement of particules or molecules in a solvent from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration, through a semi permeable membrane.

To put differently, the movement of water molecules is from a region of lower osmotic pressure to a higher one. And for osmosis to be achieved and water molecules evenly distributed, pressure built must be slow and steady to a state of high or equilibrium.

This often results to movement of membrane to the left as a response to the osmosis phenomenon. Increasing the number of water molecules in the extra cellular fluid will thus accelerate this process, increase the pressure built up, and thus generate ripples from a lower area to a higher one. Osmosis is thus gradual and steady.
