As we can see in the pedigree, both of the parents do not possess the trait, but one of the four offspring (marked with red) is expressing the trait.
Since the trait is recessive, the only way that is possible that the parents who do not possess the trait to have the offspring with the trait is that the parents are heterozygous for the trait. Meaning that both of the parents have one dominant allele and one recessive allele.

Which of the following is/are true?
dem82 [27]

Answer: option B) Sympatric speciation is best described as a random event that disrupts the allele frequencies in a population

Explanation:

Sympatric speciation is an event/situation whereby organisms of the same species:

- live in the same territory or nearby territories ( i.e do not live in geographical isolation)

- DO NOT interbreed, but select a sexual mate from a much diverse territory to yield new species or offsprings.

This sexual selection then results in generations of offsprings that are genetically different from the rest of the same species due to uneven gene flow or disruption of alleles among the population of same species.

Thus, only option B is true.

One unit of alcohol contains 8 grams of alcohol. calculate the risk of developing liver cancer for someone who consumes 4 units
Kryger [21]

The risk of developing liver cancer for someone who consumes 4 units of alcohol a day is twice as high as normal (hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma).

<h3>What does alcohol do to the liver?</h3>

Alters the production of enzymes, changing the rate of metabolism of the alcohol consumed, causing chronic inflammation, alcoholic hepatitis and cirrhosis.  Irritates the mucous membranes of the stomach and esophagus, causing esophagitis, gastritis and diarrhea.

With this information, we can conclude that The risk of developing liver cancer for someone who consumes 4 units of alcohol a day is twice as high as normal (hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma).
