The best answer is B.

Carbohydrates, also known as saccharides , are molecular compounds made from only three elements namely carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

They are also known as sugars. Some of these sugars are simple molecules called monosaccharides, such glucose made from just one molecule. Other carbohydrate molecules are very large, such as  starch.

Starch is made up of a large number of monosaccharides namely glucose. Plants use starch as a way to store glucose and also as food in some mitochondrial processes.

Which molecule is responsible for the wide diversity of life on earth?
Elden [556K]
A phylogeny is an evolutionary ”tree” of related
organisms that can be constructed by using
information obtained from the genetic material.
Genetic information is contained in all living cells,
in the form of long DNA molecules that take the
shape of connected double- stranded spirals
(DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid). DNA
spirals, or “helixes”, are tightly compressed in the
nucleus of every cell. Their information is
organized into a code made up of four small
molecules — the building blocks of DNA. The
molecules, called nucleotides, are labelled:
A (adenine), C (cytosine), G (guanine) and T
(thymine).
It is possible to draw conclusions about the
evolution of a group of plant or animal species,
and the relationships among them, by comparing
selected pieces of DNA.

klasskru [66]

Answer:

Explanation:

If the disorder is recessive, neither parent has to have the disorder because

they can be heterozygous. The characteristic features of autosomal recessive inheritance is as follows:-

•Appears in both sexes with equal frequency

• Trait tend to skip generations

• Affected offspring are usually born to unaffected parents

• When both parents are heterozygous approx. 1/4 of the progeny will be affected

• Appears more frequently among the children of consanguineous marriages.

The given pedigree follows these features. So the correct option is 'Autosomal recessive trait'.

Please correct me If I am wrong :)
