To calculate: Percentage of gene combinations that result in albino coloring, further model a polynomial representing possible gene combinations.
Answer to Problem 35E
a) 25%
b)
Explanation of Solution
Given information: Gene combination with even one N gene results in normal coloring.
Calculation:
a) Punnett square implies that there are
One one gene combination is devoid of even a single N.
Therefore the probability of albino coloring=
Percentage of albino coloring
b) Each parent deer has half N genes and half a genes.
Modeling genetic makeup of each parent
As there are two parents, genetic makeup of offspring is modeled in the form of polynomial
Coefficients in above polynomial represent the probabilities of each kind of offspring.
