Color blindness is a recessive x-linked trait in humans. In a family where the mother is color-blind, and the father is normal, the probability of their having a color-blind son is 100%.

Color blindness is a recessive x chromosome liked recessive disease which is more prone in males than in females. As the mother is color-blind she has both the alleles of colorblindness while the father is normal with both x chromosome and y chromosome normal.

So if the parents have a boy, he will always receive an x chromosome with colorblindness gene from the mother and a normal y chromosome from the father always. Thus, the probability of having a colorblind boy will be 100%.

What is the main sugar used by cells for energy?
butalik [34]

Answer:

The answer is GLUCOSE.

Explanation:

Glucose is the main sugar used by cells for energy. Glucose is derived from the digestion of carbohydrates. In humans, glucose is usually absorbed into the blood from the small intestine, the blood then carry the blood around the body, allowing each cell to have access to the glucose it needs.

If the quantity of glucose in the blood is more than needed per time, the body usually store the excess glucose as glycogen, the glycogen will be turned to glucose and release for cell use when the quantity of sugar in the blood is low. In the absence of glycogen, other macro nutrients such as lipids and proteins can also be converted to glucose via gluconeogenesis when the concentration of glucose in the blood is low.

The cells oxidize the glucose and convert it to energy in form of ATP, which they use to carry out their life activities.
