There is a population of alien kitties, species Cattus really-defty, that live on the planet Scratch. Their genomes and biology are amazingly identical to the genomes and biology of earth cats. Consider a di-hybrid cross, where the first locus has alleles A and a, and second locus has alleles B and b. Each additional copy of either an A or B allele in the two-locus genotype increases the adroitness of the cat. Adroitness is measured by the Liverpool-LI Diagnostic Juggling Measurement Instrument (LLDJMI). There are five categories: 0 = Minimally adroit (has difficulty walking across the back lawn);
1 = Somewhat adroit (can walk, but has difficulty catching mice);
2 = Adroit (can catch mice, birds, small animals easily);
3 = Very adroit (can join the circus and get a high-paying job).
4 = Extremely adroit (usually works as a Formula I race-car driver).

As an example, an alien cat with a two-locus genotype of AAbb is categorized as the Adroit phenotype (Category = 2), since there is two copies of A and zero copies of B, adding to a score of 2 for the LLDJMI. Similarly, an alien cat with a two-locus genotype of AaBB has a Very adroit phenotype (Category = 3) (one copy of A + two copies of B = three copies total of A or B).

In the following mating: AaBb x AaBb, what is the expected proportion of offspring that will be Adroit?

What was dr. willem johan kolff’s first step in using the scientific process to invent the hemodialysis machine? he built the machine and tried it with various patients, collecting data about its effectiveness. when a patient’s kidneys failed, he wondered if it would be possible to perform kidney functions with an external machine. he researched and collected data about numerous patients who exhibited symptoms of kidney failure. he drew conclusions from studies of various symptoms of kidney failure, and drew a design for the ideal external blood-processing machine.
