Answer:
°Draws attention to the magnitude and importance of threatened biodiversity.
°Identifies and documents those species most in need of conservation action.
°Provides an index of the decline of biodiversity.
Establishes a baseline from which to monitor the future °status of species.
The protein components which reside on the red blood cell membrane and which determines blood type are THE ANTIGENS.
Antigens are proteins molecules which are found on the surface of the red blood cell, the antigens that are present in the cell determine the type of blood that will be present in the individual. There are four types of blood; A, B, AB and O. <span />
Answer:
The tall parent was heterozygous
Explanation:
If tall height is dominant to short height the only genotype possible for short height is hh, while there are two possible genotypes for tall height, Hh and HH. When HH is crossed with hh all the offspring are Hh, but if Hh is crossed with hh, a quarter of the offspring is HH, a quarter is hh and half is Hh. If the tall pea plants were HH there would only be tall offspring, but because there are some short offspring we know that the tall pea plants must have a genotype of Hh.
Answer:
25% colorblind daughter: 25% colorblind son: 25% carrier daughters with normal vision: 25% normal son.
Explanation:
The genotype of a color-blind man is X^cY and the genotype of the heterozygous carrier female is X^cX. A cross between X^cY and X^cX would produce a progeny in following ratio=
25% colorblind daughter: 25% colorblind son: 25% carrier daughters with normal vision: 25% normal son.
Therefore, the couple is likely to have 50% normal son and 50% affected son. Likewise, the couple is likely to have 50% normal daughters and 50% colorblind daughters.
