Amanda Sefton (Daytripper) has normal fingers and toes and normal color vision. Her mother is normal in all respects, but her father is color blind (X- linked recessive) and syndactylous (autosomal dominant). Kurt Wagner (Nightcrawler) is color blind and syndictylous. His mother has normal color vision and normal fingers and toes, but he didn't know his father. As their genetic counselor, answer the following questions based on Kurt and Amanda marrying and starting a family. What is the probability of having a child that has syndactyly? (Enter your answer as a decimal; Example = 0.8782)

Communication

Communication is a method of transferring information between two persons or organisms. Communication is possible using mutually understood behaviors such as signs, symbols, or language. In the year 1980, S. F. Scudder proposed communication theory. According to his ideas, all living beings on the earth communicate, but the methods of communication differ. Communication skills are now part of soft skills.
