Explain at the biochemical or enzymatic level, the phenotypic consequencesof alleles incase of following cross.
Rr (pink flower) x Rr (pink flower) (progeny are 1 RR (red flower) :2 Rr (pink flower): 1rr(white flower)
how alleles contribute to a phenotype through metabolism.
A woman with normal parents whose brother has phenylketonuria (PKU) marries a normal man who has a sister affected by PKU. If in a general population the incidence of PKU at birth is 1 in 3,600, what is the probability that their first child will be affected?
