a) the son will not be affected by rickets (0% chance)
b) the daughter will have rickets (100% chance)
Explanation:
Since only the father has rickets and it is a X-linked dominant trait, the mother has two normal X chromosomes. The X chromosome received from the mother by the son will not result in the rickets since the father will have contributed the Y chromosome and that does not have the gene for rickets. In case of the daughter, she will receive the defective X chromosome from her father, which will cause her to have the rickets disease.
Tropical and temperate rainforests have some things in common. Both have very dense vegetation. Trees in temperate and tropical rainforests have trunks that flare out at the bottom and both types of rainforests are endangered biomes.
