Summary Introduction
Introduction:
The cell is a functional and structural unit of all living organism and makes the basic building block for the body. Each type of cell performs specific functions; disposal of the waste product, maintenance of shape and integrity of the cell, and obtaining nutrient from its surrounding fluids. Each cell contains genetic material either DNA or RNA, located in

There is a species of eagle, which lives in a tropical forest in Brazil. The alula pattern of its wings is determined by a single autosomal gene with four alleles that exhibit an unknown hierarchy of dominance. Genetic testing shows that individuals 1-1, 11-4, 11-7, III-1, and III-4 are each homozygous.
How many possible genotypes among checkered eagles in the population?
