Answer;

C. His mother carried at least one allele for that trait

Explanation;

-Men have a single allele of each gene on the X chromosome, inherited from their mother, and a single allele of each gene on the Y chromosome, from their father.

-A sex-linked trait is a trait that is controlled by a gene or an allele located on the sex chromosome.

-X-linked traits are maternally inherited from carrier mothers or from an affected father. Each son born to a carrier mother has a 50% probability of inheriting the X-chromosome carrying the mutant allele.

Question 10 of 10
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

bacteria

Explanation:

Nitrogen gas (N2) diffuses into the soil from the atmosphere, and species of bacteria convert this nitrogen to ammonium ions (NH4+), which can be used by plants. Legumes (such as clover and lupins) are often grown by farmers because they have nodules on their roots that contain nitrogen-fixing bacteria.

Where do spindle fibers come from
erik [133]

Spindle fibers are formed from microtubules with many accessory proteins which help guide the process of genetic division. Each spindle fiber forms during cellular division near the poles of the dividing cell. As they extend across the cell, they search for the centromere of each chromosome
