Well, this depends on the strength of the wind. The stronger the wind, the longer it blows and the longer the fetch, or stretch of ocean over which it blows, the larger the waves.

Answer: wherever the wind blows :)

Explantation:  the waves go 90 degrees to the left (southern hemisphere) or the right (northern hemisphere)

also, if it's blowing away from the beach, it causes upwelling,

which brings nutrients from the bottom of the ocean and attracts more organisms.

hope this helps :)

A child is born to parents that both have hypophosphatemic rickets, a disease that is caused by a sex-linked dominant trait. Wha
Sati [7]

Answer:

75%

Explanation:

Hypophosphatemic rickets is a disorder characterized by hypophosphatemia (low level of phosphate in the blood), defective intestinal absorption of calcium, and rickets (impaired mineralization of cartilaginous growth plates)  or osteomalacia (impaired mineralization of the osteoid) unresponsive to vitamin D. It can be inherited or acquired.

When it comes to inheritable hypophosphatemic rickets, the disorder is most often inherited in an X-linked dominant manner. This means that the gene is inherited through the X chromosome and that one dominant allele is enough to cause it.

As the mother is heterozygous for the trait, she has one dominant and one recessive allele (XHXh). The father has one X chromosome, which he inherited from his mother, and as he has the condition, the dominant allele will be present on it (XHY).

This means that, if the child is a girl, she will definitely have the disorder. Girls inherit one X chromosome from each of their parents. Even if she inherited the one with the recessive allele from her mother, she would get the one with the dominant allele from her father.

If the child is a boy, he has a 50% chance to inherit the condition. Boys inherit the Y chromosome from their father and the X chromosome from their mother. As the mother is heterozygous, he can either get the chromosome without the dominant allele or the one with it. This means that there is a 50% chance of inheriting the disorder.

If we say that there are equal chances of this couple having female and male children, when we combine these results, we get a 75% chance of them inheriting hypophosphatemic rickets.

kipiarov [429]

 

 

The site of calcium regulation is what differs from a mechanism of contraction in smooth muscle from skeletal muscle. One of the important functions of skeletal muscle contraction is production of heat and where calcium seemingly acts to remove the blocking action of tropomyosin.
