Answer:

Ability to move

Explanation:

All organism species have the ability to reproduce, grow and develop, and maintain homeostasis (for example, sweating). Not all organisms can move, however. Cacti, for instance, are stiff and do not move on their own, yet are still alive.

Mental processes such as thought, language, memory, and speech are processed in the ______ areas of the cerebral cortex.
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Frontal lobe

Explanation:

They areas of the cerebral cortex is divided into major four compartments.

  • The frontal lobe
  • The temporal lobe
  • The parietal lobe
  • The occipital lobe

The frontal lobe is situated at the anterior part of the brain whose main function is required in handling of mental processes such as thought, language, memory and speech. With the aid of the frontal lobe, we are able to think, communicate and process information.

The temporal lobe which is located beneath the frontal,parietal and occipital lobe helps to fine tune sounds and plays an integral role in hearing.

The parietal lobe is found at the back of the frontal lobe and also just above the temporal lobe helps to maintain body balance and trigger the body in cases of alertness.

The occipital lobe is located at the posterior region of the brain whose main function is reserved for visual perception.

the couple is also concerned about their child inheriting hemophilia, another rare disease, which is x-linked. natalie’s brother
IgorC [24]

Hemophilia is a recessive X-linked condition and is inherited from parents. . The probability that Natalie and Daniel’s first child has hemophilia is<u> 1/4</u>, not 1/8. The statement is<u> false.</u>

<h3>What is an X-linked gene?</h3>

When talking about sex-linked genes, we refer to all those genes located in one of the sex-chromosomes and not in the somatic ones.

X-linked genes are the genes located specifically in the X sex chromosome.

Traits coded by these genes are inherited. This is, X-linked genes are transmitted from parents to children through generations.

According to this, X-linked genetic disorders will be inherited as well.

  • Men have a high probability of being affected since they only have one copy of the X chromosome.
  • In women, the effect of the mutation might be musk in heterozygous state if the mutation is recessive.

Hemophilia is a recessive X-linked disorder, which means it is coded by the recessive allele.

  • X+ ⇒ X chrosomosome with Dominant allele
  • X- ⇒ X chrosomosome with Recessive allele

<u>Genotype              Phenotype</u>

X+X+                   Healthy woman

X+X-                    Healthy carrier woman

X-X-                     Hemophilic woman

X+Y                      Healthy man

X-Y                       Hemophilic man

Let us make a pedigree of these families,

<u>Natalie's family</u>:

Mother         healthy carrier          X+X-

Father          healthy                      X+Y

Brother        hemophilic                X-Y  

Natalie         Healthy                     X+X- or X+X+  

Natalie has 1/2 chances of being carrier X+X- and 1/2 of being X+X+.

<u>Daniel's family</u>:

Mother         healthy carrier          X+X-

Father          hemophilic                X-Y  

Sister           hemophilic                X-X-

Daniel          Healthy                      X+Y

He has 1/2 chances of being healthy X+Y and 1/2 of being affected X-Y.

According to the product probability rule, if events A and B are independent from each other, the probability of occurrence of both events together is

P(A∩B) = P(A) x P(B)

In this case,

  • event A is Daniel being affected ⇒ 1/2
  • event B is Natalie being carrier ⇒ 1/2

P(A∩B) = P(A) x P(B) = 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4

The probability that Natalie and Daniel’s first child has hemophilia is 1/4, not 1/8. The statement is<u> false.</u>
