A man who is a dwarf with achondroplasia and normal vision marries a color-blind woman of normal height. The man's father was si

x feet tall, and both the woman's parents were of average height. Dwarfism caused by achondroplasia is autosomal dominant, and red-green color blindness is X-linked recessive. How many of their daughters might be expected to be colorblind with achondroplasia? (A) none (B) half (C) one out of four (D) three out of four

Correct option A) None.

The male dwarf's father was of normal height; that is, homozygous recessive for achondroplasia. Consequently, the dwarf man of this exercise was heterozygous for the character (say Aa) because this condition is autosomal dominant.

He also has normal vision reason why he is X-NY and  X-N which represents the X chromosome with the dominant N allele for normal vision. The woman is color blind and hence a homozygous recessive X-nX-n and of normal height.

Autosomal dominant helps  to alleles harbored by any chromosome other than the sexual pair that show complete dominance over the recessive ones. Other diseases such as Huntington's disease, are autosomal dominant.

A marked decrease in brain processing and memory in some older adults is MOST likely caused by: A. inadequate control processes.
Andru [333]

Answer:

Option-B

Explanation:

The brain is an organ composed of neurons which controls all the voluntary and involuntary of animals.  In humans, the brain is located in the skull where the brain is suspended in a fluid called cerebrospinal fluid.

As humans ages and becomes old aged, the neurons in the brain losing their ability to perform their function, if they are lost they cannot be regenerated.

The lesions appear on the white matter of the brain and the brain shrink. Due to these known and other unknown features, the process controlled by these neurons become inadequate and shows slower brain processing and weak memory.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

Which organelle prepares proteins for specific jobs?
oksian1 [2.3K]
Ribosomes.
Proteins are used for cellular repairing and chemical processes. Ribosomes are one of the most important organelles in the cell, mostly part of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. It manufactures enzymes such as proteins which will be utilized by many organelles in the cell. Microtubules are one, responsible for the framework and acts as a skeleton of the cell –cytoskeleton needs proteins, also cytoplasm and other organelles of the cell. For a prokaryote or a eukaryote cell to survive, they need protein.<span> Fundamentally, the cell would cease to function and possibly die</span>

Why will many species of bird migrate to warmer climate during the winter
Doss [256]
Bird migrations began with the recession of the glaciers during the ice age. You will notice a great increase in insects in the spring time and early summer.The birds moved North to take advantage of this increase in the food supply that followed the warming in the spring and early summer. Their reproductive organs temporarily developed so they could lay eggs and raise a family. Look at the early flush of Night crawlers in the moist times of the early rains. By mid summer most of the insects have matured, mated and died. Their eggs have hatched and turned to larva and moved underground until next spring. The shortening of the days causes the reproductive functions to decrease and signals the birds that the food will soon become scarce. They move back to the area that makes it the easiest to find food and avoid freezing. which of course is the warmer climates nearer the equator. Not all birds move past the Tropics at approximately 30 degrees. Some like Chickadees may move down from Mi or Mn or Canada only as far south as Indiana. Some migrations may be quite short. For example from the mountains down to the plains. They don't generally reproduce in the warmer winter climes they migrate to. In the spring time they migrate along paths of the retreating glaciers. As the climate warms away from the tropics the birds follow the emerging insects etc to the birds selected breeding grounds.with increased insects and longer days to feed the hatching's. It is necesary to understand why they move to cooler climates in the summer to under stand why they move to eh warmer ones in the fall. As the days shorten the food supply dwindles and the babies have fledged. They move to warmer climates in winter to rest and refuel for the next years migration.
