Hello!! If schizophrenia is high in identical twins, then I would say that it is a biological reason for the disorder. Meaning, it could be caused from your mom/dad’s side of genes. I hope I helped and gave you the right answer you were looking for. Have a great day!!

When colorblind women married a male with normal vision, all their daughters have normal vision and all their sons are colorblin
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

X-linked recessive

Explanation:

The trait is a sex-linked trait because the daughters are not colorblind, but the sons are. We know this its recessive because the daughters have inherited the mother's X chromosome that has the colourblindness trait, but are not colorblind because the father's X does not have the colourblindness trait. The sons are colourblind because they inherited the X from their mother with the colourblindnese trait and a Y from their father. The colourblindness trait or normal vision trait is not carried on the Y, so the mother's X chromosome's trait is expressed.

Sorry if it's confusing i tried my best to explain it

Water molds are fungus-like and heterotrophic. Why are they classified as chromists rather than protozoans or fungi
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

The cell wall of oomycetes, however, is not composed of chitin, as in the fungi, but is made up of a mix of cellulosic compounds and glycan. The nuclei within the filaments are diploid, with two sets of genetic information, not haploid as in the fungi.

Power stroke (myosin head bends) coupled with the release of ADP and phosphate, ATP hydrolyzed to ADP and Phosphate and the Myos
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Power stroke (myosin head bends) coupled with the release of ADP and phosphate

Explanation:

Muscle contraction results from myosin heads adhering to actin and attracting it inwards. It uses ATP. Myosin adhers to actin at a binding site of its globular actin protein and adheres at another binding site for ATP (hydrolyzed ATP to ADP, Pi  and energy)

ATP binding prompts myosin to detach from actin, ATP is changed to ADP and inorganic phosphate, Pi by ATPase. The energy formed at this process orientates myosin head to a “cocked” direction.

The myosin head goes in the direction of the M line, holding the actin with it in the process causing the filaments to orientate nearly 10 nm in the direction of the M line--- power stroke (force is produced), the sarcomere reduces in length and the muscle contracts.

Note: The power stroke is seen when ADP and phosphate disattaches itself from the myosin head.

At the terminal point of the power stroke, the myosin head as low-energy, followed by ADP release.

The attached image shows the cross-bridge muscle contraction cycle, which is activated  by Ca2+ sticking to the actin active site. And how actin moves in relation to myosin.

katovenus [111]

The another are differentiated from the anamniotes by the presence of their terrestrially adapted eggs. These eggs are protected by amniotic membranes. Development of these membranes have provided another with their own aquatic environment needed for development.

The development of amniotic membrane is a characteric of amniotic eggs. These membranes include: chorion' facilitating the exchange of gases between the embryo and the mother; amnion, protection the embryo from injuries and shock and also aiding hydration; allantois, excretion of nitrogenous waste such as urea and uric acid etc and also help in respiration.

Another characteristics is waterproof skin due to the presence of lipids.

Another is the existence of costal rib ventilation of the lungs: enables of loss of CO2 through the lungs rather than buccal pumping as foumd in anamniotes.
