Answer #1

Answer:

a). bbcc

Explanation:

bbC_ = 3/16 (semi stripes)

bbcc = 1/16 (no stripes)

    Q5.28. Imagine two wolves, a sister and her full-sibling brother, are working together to raise the sister's litter of 10 pups, fathered by an unrelated male. The brother could strike out on his own, in which case he would father 7 pups. However, if he leaves, only 5 pups of his sister's brood will survive. Given that Hamilton's rule says a helping behavior is favored if rB-C>0, what should the brother do to maximize his fitness? (Hint: Click here to...

    2. In Labrador dogs, there are 2 loci that determine coat color. The first locus, B is dominant to b. At least one B allele will produce black coat color, while the bb genotype produces a chocolate coat color. This first locus also determines nose color in Labradors: B_ black noses, and bb brown noses. The second locus has a genotype, ee, that is epistatic in nature. Any Labrador with an ee genotype will be yellow. A genotype containing at...

    PART 1: You are studying pea plants where genes A and B determine petal color according to a pathway where B is needed in order to activate C, and an active C converts yellow to blue: B -> C -> yellow to blue BbCc plant is crossed to an bbcc plant. If genes B and C segregate independently, what is the predicted phenotypic ratio among the progeny? UPPERCASE = dominant & LOWERCASE = recessive loss-of-function Choose from the group of...

    3. You have discovered a biochemical pathway that leads to the zebra’s stripes!! With considerable effort, you have identified six zebra lines that don’t have stripes! They are completely dark. To figure out what’s happening, you do some crosses. When you cross zebra line 1 with lines 5 or 6, there are no stripes! When you cross zebra line 2 with lines 4 and 5, you get stripes again! When you cross zebra line 3 with line 6, you get...
