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%.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is The drug binds to the 30S small ribosomal  subunit eukaryotes have 40S small sub unit.

Explanation:

Tetracycline belongs to broad spectrum antibiotic.Tetracycline is named so because it contain a derivative of four hydrocarbon rings.

 Tetracycline act by inhibiting the protein synthesis process in prokatotes by binding to the small ribosomal subunit also called 30S subsunit and blocks the binding of amino acyl tRNA to the A site or attachment site of ribosome.

 As eukaryotes contain 40S ribosomal  subunit,it becomes difficult for tetracycline to bind with 40S ribosomal subunit of eukaryotes.

chloroplast: makes food for plant cells, photosynthesis

mitochondria:produces energy the cell needs to carry out its functions; release energy

vacuole: stores food, water, and waste

lysosome: found mainly in animal cells, digests old cell parts

endoplasmic reticulum: carries proteins and other materials from one part of the cell to the other

cytoplasm: gel -like fluid where the organelles are found

nucleolus: makes ribosomes, center of the nucleus

ribosome: makes proteins

cell membrane:controls

Explanation:

I'm pretty sure the answer is D based on the info above,and because its the only one that has the correct information about the cell parts

hope its correct
