A gene is composed of two alleles. An allele can be either dominant or recessive. suppose that a husband and a wife who are both carriers of the sickle-cell anemia allele but do not have the disease, decide to have a child. because both parents are carriers of the disease, each one has a dominant normal cell allele (S), and one recessive sickle-cell allele (s). Therefore the genotype of each parent is Ss. Each parent contributes one allele to his or her offspring with each allele being equally likely. a. List the possible genotypes of their offspring.
b. what is the probability that the offspring will have sickle cell- genotype ss?
c. what is the probability that the offspring will not have sickle cell but still be a carrier (one normal cell allele and one sickle cell allele)

Have you ever been in the middle of telling a story and had to use hand gestures or even a drawing to make your point? in algebra, if we want to illustrate or visualize a key feature of a function, sometimes we have to write the function in a different form—such as a table, graph, or equation—to determine the specific key feature we’re looking for. think about interactions with others and situations you’ve come across in your own life. how have you had to adjust or change the way you represented something based on either the concept you were trying to describe or the person you were interacting with? explain how the complexity or layout of the concept required you to change your style or presentation, or how the person’s unique learning style affected the way you presented the information.

Walgreens sells both kleenex and nyquil. in a random sample of 5000 purchases, it was found that 1200 contained kleenex and 540 contained nyquil. these are not independent because sick people are more likely to buy both and healthy people more likely to buy neither. in looking into that, it was found that 360 purchases contained both. a. make a two-way table to display this information. fill in the table with the missing entries, and be sure your table has row and column totals. b. if we randomly select a purchase that contained kleenex, what is the probability it also contained nyquil? c. what percent of all purchases didn’t contain either product?
