Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Given -

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-linked recessive disorder.

The mother is heterozygous recessive for the Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

In this case if X' represent the affected allele, the genotype of affected female would be  XX'

Also, the father is unaffected but is the carrier of recessive affected allele. Hence, Genotype of father would be X'Y

Cross between XX' and X'Y would give the following offspring -

XX', XY, X'X', X'Y

All the female offspring will have recessive allele for Duchenne muscular dystrophy disorder

Hence, the probability of a female offspring with recessive allele for Duchenne muscular dystrophy disorder will be 100 percent

Hence, option D is correct

Which are common to both aerobic and anaerobic respiration? Select three options.
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

A). glucose

D). carbon dioxide

E). energy

Explanation:

Aerobic Respiration is characterized as the respiration process(metabolic reaction or breaking down of glucose into energy) that occurs in presence of oxygen while anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence of oxygen. The things that are common in both include glucose, energy, and carbon dioxide. <u>Glucose is broken down in both processes(with or without oxygen) while energy and CO2 are the byproducts/released products of the process</u>. Thus, <u>options A, D, and E</u> are the correct answers.

What type of mutation has occurred in the dna of people with sickle cell anemia? (look back, if you need to, to see what causes
strojnjashka [21]
People with two copies of the sickle cell gene have the disease. People who carry only one copy of the sickle cell gene do not have the disease, but may pass the gene on to their children. Abnormal hemoglobin, called hemoglobin S, causes sickle cell disease (SCD). The problem in hemoglobin S is caused by a small defect in the gene that directs the production of the beta globin part of hemoglobin. This small defect in the beta globin gene causes a problem in the beta globin part of hemoglobin, changing the way that hemoglobin works.

How do genetic modification variations likely to differ from genetic sexual reproduction variations
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

The  genetic modification variations result in the change in the genome of the organism. In this case, the variations result in expression of a trait in different form than usual. These variations results in genetic mutation, which can be inherited from one generation to another.

In sexual reproduction, the genome of the organism is not altered. In this only an exchange between the maternal and the maternal alleles takes place, these changes does not result in mutations.

You’re welcome :)
