A laboratory mouse homozygous for a specific allele is mated to a wild mouse that is heterozygous for that allele. One of the heterozygous individuals resulting from this cross is mated back to the wild field mouse parent. What proportion of the offspring will have the same genotype as the original laboratory mouse?

A laboratory mouse homozygous for a specific allele is mated to a wild mouse that is heterozygous for that allele. One of the heterozygous individuals resulting from this cross is mated back to the wild field mouse parent. What proportion of the offspring will have the same genotype as the original laboratory mouse?

RR x Rr= RR, Rr, RR, and Rr 4:0 genotype

Rr x Rr= RR, Rr, Rr and rr 2:2 50:50%

50% of the offspring will have the same genotype as the original laboratory mouse

Explanation:

carbohydrates: (starches and sugars) composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

lipids: (fats, oils, and waxes) are made of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

nucleic acids: contain hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus. they are polymers of nucleotides. a nucleotide has three parts, a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate     (-po⬇️4) group, and a nitrogenous base.

proteins: made up of nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. they are polymers of amino acids.
