Mice collected from the Sonoran desert have two phenotypes, dark(D) and light (d). The mice shown below were collected in a trap. Calculate the frequency of individuals that display the recessive trait(dd)

The branch of biology which deals with genes and inheritance is called genetics.

The correct answer is 71%.

The information in the question is not complete, the picture is absent here.

After finding the picture in the other answer.

The number of light color mice is 21 that have the gene "dd" and the number of the dark color mouse is 6 that have gene "DD".

The percentage is as follows:-

21-6=15

%

Hence, the correct answer is 71%.

Frequency of individuals with recessive trait(dd) %

Explanation:

Please see the attached.

In the image it is clear that there are total mouse out of which are dark colored.

Since dark color allele is dominant, these   dark colored mouse will have genotype either  DD or Dd

The individuals with genotype "dd" will be of light color.

Number of light colored mouse

Frequency of individuals with recessive trait(dd)

explanation:

on disadvantage of hydroelectric power is the cost. another disadvantage of using hydroelectric power is finding a water source powerful enough to harvest hydroelectric power.
