Polydactyly is an autosomal dominant condition in which an individual is born with more than five fingers and toes. Suppose that a man with polydactyly and a woman who does not have polydactyly have children. All of their children have polydactyly. A. In this cross, what is the genotype of the father? What is the genotype of the mother? Use the letter 'D' to indicate the alleles of each genotype. B. What is the genotypic ratio of their offspring?

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.
