20 Assume height in humans is determined by three genes. A, B, and C each of which also occurs as a recessive allele, a, b, and c. Suppose a person's height is determined by the total number of dominant alleles from these three genes. Each dominant allele adds two inches to a person's height over five feet. If a man who is homozygous dominant for each of these three genes marries a woman who is homozygous recessive for each of these three alleles, what is the predicted height of their children? Also, how tall are the man and woman? Children's height: Man's height = Woman's height= =

Conservation Biology

The study of how to prevent the loss of biological diversity on the planet is called conservation. Biological diversity, also termed biodiversity, consists of various life forms found in a specific location or across the entire planet, including ecosystems, species, populations, and genes. Conservation thus aims to protect the diversity of life at all levels of biological organization.
