Respuesta :
There is a 50% chance that the offspring will have horns. To figure out problems like these, drawing a punnett square is very helpful.
Answer:
There are [tex]50[/tex]% chances that the he offspring will have horns
Explanation:
Given -
Allele for "no horns (N) " is dominant over allele for "presence of horn (n)"
A cross is carried out between a male and female with following genotype -
Male with horns - nn
Heterozygous female with no horns - nN
The offsrprings from the above cross will be as follows -
n n
n nn nn
N nN nN
Hence, out of four offspring two have horns "nn" and two have no horns "nN"
Hence, the probability of offspring with horns is
[tex]\frac{1}{2} * 100\\= 50[/tex]%
