One parent has a dominant gene for a
straight thumb and a recessive gene for a
bent thumb. The other parent has two
recessive genes for a bent thumb. Let T
represent straight thumbs and t represent
bent thumbs. What is the probability, or
possibility, that one of their children will
have a bent thumb?
The probability of a child with a bent thumb
is out of 4, or
%.

The probability of a child with a bent thumb  is out of 4 is 50%.

Explanation:

Information given:

dominant gene = straight thumb (genotype TT, Tt)

recessive trait = bent thumb (genotype  tt)

from the question genotype of parents can be deduced:

Parent 1 = Tt

parent 2 = tt

from the Punnet square:

  T     t

t  Tt    tt  

t   Tt    tt  

From the results of Punnet square it is seen that 50% of progeny will be straight thumb and 50% of progeny will be bent thump.

phenotype ratio and genotype ratio = 1:1

There will be 50 % probability that one of their offspring will be with bent thumb.

progeny with bend thump percent = x100

                                        = 50%.

where in your body is there an enzyme that does function at a high or low ph? what is the name of that enzyme and its function?

straight probes are used primarily for measuring flow as it is approaching the test area. its geometry allows the probe to be mounted so that it is in the direct line of airflow.
