In animals, the inability to make the pigment melanin results in albinism, a recessive autosomal condition. Two unaffected paren
Fittoniya [83]

Answer: 1/16, or approximately 6.25% (see explanation below)

Explanation:

Answering this question requires two steps.

First, we need to figure out the probability that this couple will have a child with albinism in the first place. We know the following:

- Both parents are unaffected.

- The couple has already had one affected child.

- Albinism follows an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern.

Let ( M = normal gene ) and ( m = mutated gene ). Since the condition is recessive, the affected child can be assumed to have a “mm” genotype. Barring the possibility of a de novo mutation (which are assumed to be rare), the affected child must have inherited one ”m” allele from each parent. Since both of them are unaffected, however, we can assume that they are both carriers (genotype “Mm”). In conclusion, 1/4 of their offspring (25%) <em>for any given pregnancy</em> may be expected to have albinism. See the resulting Punnett square:

<u>       |      M    |      m   </u>

<u>M    |    MM   |    Mm  </u>

<u>m    |    Mm   |    mm  </u>

Note that the question asks about the probability that not one but two consecutive births result in affected children. Since it can be assumed that both events are independent (meaning: the outcome of a pregnancy does not influence the outcome of following ones), we may apply the rule of multiplication for probabilities. The final answer is therefore 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16.

patriot [66]

The answer is : randomization was not used in sample selection. The major difference between experimental and quasi-experimental designs is lack of randomization in sampling selection.

Dioecious plants have;
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Dioecious and monoecious plants actually have something in common, in that they both bear unisexual flowers. This means that each bloom has only male or female reproductive parts. With dioecious plants, the male and female blossoms appear on separate plants. With monoecious plants, each plant has both male and female flowers.

Approximately _____ elements occur naturally on earth.
FromTheMoon [43]
<span>Of the 118 elements that have been discovered, 90 of them indisputably occur in nature. There is disagreement over whether four more or eight more occur naturally as a result of radioactive decay of other natural elements. The answer is, therefore, 94 or 98.</span>

Is the statement "I joined the science club to make my parents happy" intrinsic motivation
Bess [88]
Depends on whether the person is talking to themselves, or someone else.
If they are talking to themselves, it is indeed intrinsic motivation, as they are convincing themselves they are also happy and motivated to join the science club as it makes their parents happy.
If they are talking to someone else, it would not be intrinsic motivation. This is because they are merely telling someone that they're doing something to make their parents happy.
As it is a statement, on the whole I would say, no. It is not intrinsic motivation.
