I believe this question is trying to get you to realize the difference between acquired traits(one you get through doing something during life) and heritable traits(ones from Mom/Dad). For example, I really wish I was 6 foot 4... but the height trait comes genetically from your parents since it is coded in my DNA how tall I will be, therefore this trait must be passed down genetically and somewhere down the evolutionary tree the humans in the region which my family comes from was better off being short. An example that comes from acquired traits could be muscularity... my parents are both not very muscular but throughout my lifetime I enjoy working out and have become much more muscular, no matter how much your parents or grandparents lift weights YOU won't change so that change must be acquired through aging during your lifetime. Now the amount of muscle your body can put on is a heritable thing but that is beside the point. Hope this helps :)

The appropriate answer is B. Throughfall. These nutrients are transported via the process of throughfall where rain flows from leaves to the ground. Rainforests receive high annual rainfall. The leaves are also designed to funnel water to the ground soon after a shower. Leaves are equipped with drip tips to allow water to roll of leaves easily. Any particles deposited on leaves are going to be washed to the forest floor by frequent rainfall that occurs here.

Will a female only inherit a sex linked disorder if her father suffers from the same disorder, and if her mother is a carrier fo

muminat

Answer:

The female will not inherit a sex linked disorder if her father suffers rather "have chances or the disorder if the mother is the carrier" for the disorder.

Explanation:

A female has 2 X chromosome, which she got from her parents each. The females will get the disorder or the defective gene if the mother has defective X chromosome or if the father is carrying the same disorder from his father(grandfather). In both the cases the female will be the carrier and have chances to inherit the defect to the offspring. But the female will not affect as the male will. As the female has 2 X chromosomes, and hence the dominant X will compensate for the error in recessive X.
