Having a chin dimple (cleft chin) is dominant over having no chin dimple. having long eyelashes is dominant over having short eyelashes. jack and jill are both heterozygous for a chin dimple and long eyelashes. what are the chances that their baby will have no chin dimple and short eyelashes?

The chances are about 1 in 16 that their child will have no chin dimple and short eyelashes.

Explanation:

We know that alleles are genes that occupy the same place (locus) in homologous chromosomes. They can also be defined as the alternative form of a gene, since they determine the same trait, but not in the same way. These alleles can be both dominant and recessive and assume dominance or recessive relationships in somatic cells, in which the alleles appear in pairs. The alleles responsible for the dimple in the chin and long eyelashes have a dominant character, which is one that is phenotypically expressed under homozygous (VVVV) and heterozygous (VvVv) conditions.

Knowing this, we can conclude that a heterozygous couple (VvVv) with a slit chin and short lashes have a 1 in 16 chance that their child will not have dimples in the chin and long lashes. For this couple's son not to have the characteristics shown above, he would have to have the recessive homozygous alleles (vvvv), if you make the punnet square with the parents alleles, you will see that the "aaaa" alleles only appear once in 16 possibilities.

minerals contribute to our overall health because they your body grow, develop, and stay healthy. our bodies use minerals to us function throughout the day.tromhey us build strong bones, so we can do more things in life. with certain minerals, they can you maintain a normal heartbeat!

though, as as minerals are for us, they can also be very dangerous if one were to consume too many. if you were to take too much minerals, or even vitamins, you could experience nausea and diarrhea. all trace minerals can be very toxxic at high levels of consumption. taking too much of some minerals will result in hair loss! but this goes with almost everything in life, taking too much of something that is good, will eventually be bad for you.

my intake in minerals was normal. there really is no need to improve, i am healthy, and i am experiencing no nausea or diarrhea. i am as healthy as a bee. ☺ (sorry that i cannot you with the mineral intake)

what i have learned so far is that taking too much something can be very bad for you. taking too many minerals or vitamins, or anything healthy in general, can result in nausea and diarrhea, as well as hair loss. it would be a good idea to track what you put into your body, good or bad.

i think the answer would be b.
