Pumped storage 
A hydroelectric scheme consisting of two reservoirs with a significant difference in elevation that uses surplus off-peak electrical energy to pump large volumes of water to the high elevation reservoir for later use when there is a high peak time demand.

Early land plants like mosses did not have vascular tissue. They must absorb their water directly from their surroundings, such as growing on rocks or trees that are moist. You find mosses in damp areas for this reason. They cannot grow in drier climates because they cannot pull water from the ground like vascular plants. Ferns are also suited to reproduce in more moist/humid climates because water must be present for their gametes (sperm and eggs) to find one another for fertilization. Seeds are adaptations by angiosperms and gymnosperms that allow for waterless fertilization. Either wind or animal pollinators help spread pollen and help the sperm reach egg cells for fertilization to occur. For that reason, these plants are better suited to survive in drier, modern climates.

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

a) There are lots of genes on chromosome 1 could be affected, and the gametes could be imbalanced (missing segments of DNA or whole chromosomes)

b) Roughly 50%

c) No. I would advise that the couple undergo preimplantation genetic diagnosis, so that a zygote carrying the normal copy of chromosome 1 could be selected.

Explanation:

Chromosome 1 is one of the largest and most gene rich chromosomes. An inversion that covers 70% of its length would cover lots of genes.

While an inversion on its own would not seem problematic (as all the genes on the chromosome are still there), when it comes to meiosis, the sister chromatids would not be able to correctly align, and crossing over would further complicate this. It could also lead to unbalanced gametes missing entire parts of the chromosome. Therefore, there are likely numerous genes that will be affected and messed up by the inversion.

This could explain the high incidence of past still births, as if lots of genes are affected, and non-functional, the pregnancy would be rendered non-viable, or highly deleterious causing premature death.

b) There is a 50% chance of a child inheriting the defective copy of chromosome 1 (and 50% of a chance of them inheriting the normal chromosome 1. Therefore, there is likely a 50% chance that future offspring would be affected by defects

c) No. I would advise that the couple undergo preimplantation genetic diagnosis. In this, the couple undergoes in vitro fertilization (IVF). When embryos are produced through IVF, they can then be tested for the presence of the abnormal chromosome. Embryos will only be implanted into the mother if the normal chromosome 1 is present.
