Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: A geneticist studies a series of families in which both parents are normal and at least one child has albinism. The geneticist reasons that both parents in these families must be heterozygotes and that albinism should appear in  of the children of these families. To his surprise, the geneticist finds that the frequency of albinism among me children of these families is considerably greater "Than . Can you think of an explanation for the Thigher-than-expected frequency of albinism among These families?

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are:

A. chemical energy -> kinetic energy

B. kinetic energy -> solar energy

C. solar energy -> chemical energy

D. kinetic energy -> nuclear energy

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

All living organisms need energy to carry out certain processes in their body. This energy is obtained in form of ATP (chemical energy) when their food molecules is broken down via a process called CELLULAR RESPIRATION.

This chemical energy (ATP) is needed to perform cellular processes in the body. According to this question, a chipmunk (animal) will utilize the energy it derives (ATP) from breaking down plant sugars to carry out its cell processes. This means that it will transform CHEMICAL ENERGY → KINETIC ENERGY.

Note that, kinetic energy is the energy due to motion in the Chipmunk.
