In humans, the sex of an individual is determined by the particular combination of the two sex chromosomes. Individuals that hav

e two X chromosomes (XX) are females, whereas those with an X and a Y chromosome (XY) are males.
What percent chance do the male and female have of producing a male offspring?

I think it is a 50-60 percent chance. More boys are produced in the world than females at the moment, which might explain the reason some people are single.

Una mujer lleva en uno de sus cromosomas X un gen letal recesivo (l), y en el otro alelo dominante normal (L). ¿Cuál es la propo
nlexa [21]

Question in English:

A female carries a recessive lethal gene (l) on one of her X chromosomes, and a normal dominant allele (L) on the other. What is the sex ratio to be expected in this woman's dependency if she marries a normal man?

Answer:

2/3 females

1/3 males

Explanation:

Females have two X chromosomes (XX) and males have an X and a Y chromosome (XY).

The genotype of the female is XLXl. The genotype of the male is XLY, since he is normal.

The possible genotypes are:

<u>                            XL                  Xl</u>

<u>XL</u>                     <em>XLXL             XLXl</em>

<u>Y</u>                       <em>XLY               </em><em>XlY</em>

<em />

All female offspring will be normal as they will always have one normal copy of the X chromosome from their father.

50% of the male offspring will be normal, but 50% will inherit the lethal gene from their mother.

Because the allele is lethal, that means XlY males will not be born.

That means 2/3 of the children will be females, and 1/3 will be males.

Temperature in the tropics all year, whereas temperature at higher latitudes. Organisms that are physiologically adapted to cons
Reptile [31]

Answer:

May not

Explanation:

Adaptation is made possible as a result of an organism being exposed to different environmental conditions. These exposure makes it adopt different techniques for its survival which eventually results in it being adapted to the condition and is then passed on as traits to its offsprings. They are then able to survive when met with such environmental condition.

When an organism is exposed to the same conditions all the time then there is lack of genetic variation and adaptation may not occur.

Biological systematics and ethnoscience differ in what way? Ethnoscience and systemics both attempt to examine how all societies
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

Ethnoscience attempts to understand how people understand the world and plant systematics attempts to use classification to document evolutionary relationships between organisims

Explanation:

Ethnoscience is a study about how people see the world around them. This study shows how different people understand the nature and life under the influence of different cultures.

On the other hand, systematics shows relationships among living things through a certain period of time. Those relationships are graphically represented by phylogenetic trees or cladograms.
