Imagine that the donut is a sexually reproducing animal and thata single enzyme forms the hole. All donuts observed in the pasthave had holes. Suppose a mutation occurs in one gene of the donutsuch that it now codes for an inactive protein instead of thehole-forming enzyme. Which of the following predictions would bemost likely in descendants of this mutant donut? For eachprediction, explain whether or not it would be a likelyprediction.
a. All members of the next generation will have holes
b. Heterozygous donuts will not have holes
c. If the cell in which the mutation occurs undergoes mitosis,subsequent generations of donuts will all have holes
d. The next generation will all be holeless
e.Past generations of donuts have all had holes
