Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu.

1. If a heterozygous male with the genotype [tex]WW[/tex] is mated with a homozygous recessive female of genotype [tex]ww[/tex], there is a chance that [tex]\square[/tex] of the offspring will be heterozygous.

[tex]\[
\begin{array}{|c|c|c|}
\hline
& W & w \\
\hline
w & Ww & Ww \\
\hline
w & Ww & Ww \\
\hline
\end{array}
\][/tex]

2. If the heterozygous, [tex]Ww[/tex], is crossed with a homozygous dominant, [tex]WW[/tex], then the probability of having a homozygous recessive offspring is [tex]\square[/tex].

[tex]\[
\begin{array}{|c|c|c|}
\hline
& W & w \\
\hline
W & WW & Ww \\
\hline
W & WW & Ww \\
\hline
\end{array}

Sure! Let's break down the genetics question step-by-step:

1. First Cross: Heterozygous Male (WW) x Homozygous Recessive Female (ww)

- Parental Genotypes:
- Male: WW (heterozygous, dominant)
- Female: ww (homozygous, recessive)

- Possible Offspring Genotypes:
- The father's alleles are W and W.
- The mother's alleles are w and w.
- The possible combinations in the offspring are Ww and Ww.

- Offspring Genotype Outcomes:
- Two possible genotypes for the offspring, both of which are heterozygous (Ww).

- Probability of Heterozygous Offspring:
- Since all resulting combinations are Ww, the probability that an offspring will be heterozygous (Ww) is 100%, represented as 0.5 or 50% based on one generation in some contexts.

2. Second Cross: Heterozygous Male (WW) x Homozygous Dominant (WW)

- Parental Genotypes:
- The first parent: WW (heterozygous)
- The second parent: WW (homozygous dominant)

- Possible Offspring Genotypes:
- Both parents only contribute W alleles.
- The only possible combination in the offspring is WW.

- Offspring Genotype Outcomes:
- All offspring will definitely be WW, meaning they are homozygous dominant.

- Probability of Homozygous Recessive Offspring:
- Since there is no possibility of receiving a recessive allele from either parent in this cross, the probability that an offspring will be homozygous recessive (ww) is 0%.

In summary:

- In the first cross scenario, 50% of the offspring will be heterozygous.
- In the second cross scenario, there is a 0% chance of having a homozygous recessive offspring.
