One of the first mendelian traits identified in humans was a dominant condition known as brachydactyly. this gene causes an abnormal shortening of the fingers or toes (or both). at the time, some researchers thought that the dominant trait would spread until 75 percent of the population would be affected (because the phenotypic ratio of dominant to recessive is 3: 1).
why was this reasoning incorrect?
a. rare alleles tend to remain rare even when they are dominant so the dominant trait would spread until 25 percent of the population would be affected.
b. the distribution of a gene among individuals is determined by mating and environmental factors, so only a recessive trait can spread until 75 percent of the population would be affected.
c. rare alleles tend to remain rare even when they are dominant. the distribution of a gene among individuals is determined by mating and environmental factors.
d. the frequency of an allele is determined only by migration, so it is impossible to determine the distribution of desease in human population using mendelian crosses.

45 points how are people today being protected from tsunamis? earthquake data is analyzed to detemrine if a tsunami is likely, and if so, warnings are sent out. areas in tsunami risk zones are no longer heavily populated. radar is used to measure wave heights regularly. meteorologists study the winds to determine if wave heights will be large.
