Please answer these question with explanation. Will give goodrating. Thier are parts to the questions
1a. Deaf parents, whose deafness has genetic basis, have a childwith normal hearing. Suggest two possible genetic explanations.
1b . A dominant allele H reduces the number of body bristlesDrosophila flies develop, resulting in a âhairlessâ phenotype. Inthe homozygous condition, H is lethal. An independently assortingdominant allele S has no effect on bristle number except in thepresence of H. In that case a single dose of S suppresses thehairless phenotype and restores hairy phenotype. However, S is alsolethal in the homozygous condition.
a) What ratio of hairy to hairless flies would you find in thelive progeny of a cross between two hairy flies both carrying the Hallele in the suppressed condition?
b) What genetic term is used to describe the effect of the Sallele on the H allele?
