Answer (1)

Answer:Here's the breakdown of the genetics involved: a. Genotypic and Phenotypic Ratios - Parental Genotypes: - Mother: rr (non-roller) - Father: Rr (roller) - Punnett Square: Table

R r r Rr rr r Rr rr - Genotypic Ratio: - Rr: 2 (heterozygous rollers) - rr: 2 (homozygous non-rollers) - Ratio: 1:1 - Phenotypic Ratio: - Roller: 2 - Non-roller: 2 - Ratio: 1:1 b. Percentage of Tongue Rollers - Out of the four possible offspring, two will be tongue rollers (Rr). - Therefore, 50% of their children will be tongue rollers.
