What is the reproductive mechanism that allows for an offspring to inherit a trait that is expressed in neither parent?

Each parent has two versions (called alleles) of every gene, although only one is expressed. During the formation of gametes (sperm or egg), the two alleles separate and each gamete gets only one of the two alleles that a parent could contribute.So, let's pretend that both parents have brown eyes, and that the allele W is responsible for brown eyes. Let's also suppose that w (lower case) is responsible for blue eyes. Remember...both parents have two alleles, but only one is expressed, with the capital W being dominant over lower case w, so Ww will have brown eyes even though the blue eye gene is present.The mother, who has brown eyes will have the alleles Ww, so can produce eggs that have either a W or a w. Each egg is equally likely to contain either a W or a w, so about 1/2 of the eggs produced will have a W, the other half a w.The father, who has brown eyes will have the alleles Ww, so can produce sperm that have either a W or a w. Each sperm is equally likely to contain either a W or w, so about 1/2 of the sperm will contain a W, the other half a w.The progeny of these parents will have one of the four possible allele combinations:Father contributes a W, and mother contributes W - offspring will have WW, resulting in brown eyes.Mother contributes a W, and father contributes a w - offspring will have Ww, resulting in brown eyes.Father contributes a W, and mother contributes a w - offspring will have Ww, resulting in brown eyes.Both father and mother contribute w - offspring will have ww, resulting in blue eyes.Note that if the father's sperm contained a W, and the mother's egg contained a W, the progeny will have brown eyes. Also, note that if the father's sperm contained a W and the mother's egg contained a w, the progeny will have brown eyes, because W is dominant over w. The same can be said if the mother contributes a W and the father a w. Three of four possible combinations will result in the progeny inheriting a W from one or both parents, so will have brown eyes, thus, there is a 3/4 probability that the progeny from such a combination will have brown eyes.Also, note that there is a 1/4 probability that an offspring will inherit ww, because each parent contributed the recessive w gene. This ww offspring will have blue eyes even though both parents have brown eyes!The Principle of Segregation of alleles in the formation of gametes makes it possible for each gamete to be equally likely to contain either allele.

Each hand in human body has 27 bones there are 6 more bones in your fingers than in your wrist there are 3 fewer bones in your palm than in your wrist how many bones are in each part of your hand?

Fingers (including thumb)=14 Palm=5 Wrist=8 The math if W = number of bones in wrist: W + (W+6) + (W-3)=27 3W + 3 = 27 3W = 24 W=8

What does the medical abbreviation cbc w diff mean?

Complete blood count with differential. Total leukocyte count gives the total number of white blood cells per microliter of blood. The differential count gives the percentage of the various types of white blood cells like neutrophils, lymphocyts and eosinophils.A CBC is a complete blood count.It contains:RBC - number of red blood cellsMCV - average volume of individual red blood cellsMCHC - average amount of hemoglobin per red blood cellRDW - the average size of the red blood cellHemoglobinHematocritWBC - number of white blood cells.If it is ordered with a differential, then they want the lab to break down the different types of white blood cells, such as neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, as monocytes.Different types of diseases cause a rise in the different types of WBCs, so a differential can often be useful in narrowing down a diagnosis.
