The skin of the bright orange south american toad secretes a lethal neurotoxin. assume that the toxin is produced by an enzyme encoded by a gene that has two alleles: t (dominant, wild-type enzyme/toxin) and t (recessive, no enzyme/toxin produced). the neurotoxin is secreted by means of a protein s produced by the wild-type gene s. the recessive allele s does not produce protein s (thus no secretion of the toxin can occur). a toad that cannot manufacture the enzyme/toxin and is heterozygous for the secretion gene is mated with a toad that cannot secrete the toxin and is heterozygous for the enzyme/toxin gene. what fraction of the progeny will be poisonous to the touch, that is, able both to manufacture and to secrete the toxin? use probability to solve the problem.

Dr. kaylan is an ecologist who studies bird behavior. she sets up an experiment to test which type of food crows are most likely to eat when given a choice between walnuts, corn, and sunflower seeds. to perform her experiment, dr. kaylan places three food bins in an area frequented by cows. each bin contains one of the three food types. then, she measures how much of each food type is eaten every day for a month and summarizes the results of her experiment in the pie chart below. based on her results, dr. kaylan concludes that crows choose to eat corn more frequently than other food sources because it has a higher nutritional value. what is a reasonable alternate conclusion that can be drawn from dr. kaylan's data

One of the newest applications of cell technology is called cybrid embryos. this process involves replacing the nuclear material of an animal cell with human nuclear material. how might this process affect public policies about research by using stem cells? the same policies and concerns about the use of human embryonic stem cells would most likely apply. the embryos would most likely be treated like traditional animal embryos and regulated accordingly. the process of forming cybrid embryos would most likely be banned by government regulators. the embryos would be treated as regular cells because they are not fully human in origin.
