Explanation:
a) The allele for hemophilia is Xh and that for normal is XH.
Crossing a hemophiliac male, Xh Y, with a normal female XH XH,
- XH Xh, normal carrier female
- XH Xh, normal carrier female
- XH Y, normal male
- XH Y, normal male
b) Both parents are normal and children still having hemophilia means that the mother is a carrier.
Let's see how it'll work out if we cross a normal male with a carrier female,
XH Y × XH Xh
- XH XH, normal female
- XH Xh, carrier female
- XH Y, normal male
- Xh Y, hemophiliac male
This means that the possibility of a female being normal, a carrier or not, is 100%. The possibility of a male being normal is 50% and the possibility of him being a hemophiliac is also 50%.
Thus it's possible that all 7 sons get hemophilia as each male baby has a 50% chance of having the genotype Xh Y. And it makes sense that all the females are normal. Those females could have the genotypes XH XH, or XH Xh (carriers).
Answer:
b. the interaction of food availability and predation intensity
Explanation:
The complete question is as follows:
What best explains snowshoe hare and lynx population cycles?
a. the seasonal trends in food availability
b. the interaction of food availability and predation intensity
c. natural variation in the number of lynxes born
d. the population density of snowshoe hares
- The population of snowshoe hare and lynx are closely linked to each other and this is because the primary food of lynx is the snowshoe hare.
- When the number of hares is more lynx eat more of hares and less of other food and when the number of hares is scarce, lynx eat alternate food.
- However, in the scarcity of hares, the other foods do not provide lynx with their nutritional needs and therefore, many of them leave their home grounds.
- Therefore, when the hare number declines lynx number also declines.
- The population cycle spans over 8-11 years.
- The number of hares decreases at the end of the cycle and so does the number of lynx.
- However, at the beginning when the number of the hare is more, they starve due to competition and are easily caught by the lynx and thus, the lynx population also increases.
Answer:
New solids and gases are formed,including sugar and oxygen
The right one is d. homozygous dominant
Answer:
0.5
Explanation:
let the alleles be W- no white spots w-white spots
ww butterflies have white spots
genotypic frequency of ww= number of butterflies with white spots/total number
= 128/512
= 0.25
alleleic frequency of w= square root of genotypic frequency of ww
= square root of 0.25
= 0.5
