Answer:

b yes-if the mother did not carry the trait (heterozygous) AND c yes-if the mother was not X b X b (homozygous)

Explanation:

Hemophilia is an X linked condition that causes abnormal bleeding due to a failure of the blood to clot. Because it is X linked, males only need to carry 1 allele to have the disease.

A father with hemophilia would have the genotype X b Y. However, since the son will also be XY, he must have passed on his Y chromosome, and the son must have got his X from this mother.

Therefore, there should not be any problems with abnormal bleeding following a circumcision.

However, this is only true if we assume the mother does not carry the trait. If one or two of her X chromosomes has the b allele (i.e. if she is a heterozygous carrier or homozygous for the trait), then the son could inherit the trait.

Examples of how humans negatively affect local ecosystems are
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

<u>A.  Building dams, deforestation cutting down trees), adding point sources to nearby streams to allow for run-off, building roads and structures, and salting roads.</u>

Explanation:

Removing non-native species from the environment helps the native ants to thrive without having any changes in the ecosystem effect them (i.e. new invasive animal).

Creating laws to prohibit fishing from local streams helps keep the fish alive and allowing them to continue to use this stream.

Planting trees and other plants to attract native species helps secure and grow the ecosystem of that area.

<em>This leaves </em><em>A</em><em> </em><u><em>as the answer.</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

Hope that helps you!
