Pedigrees are used to help geneticists understand how traits are inherited between generations. The Romanovs, a Russian royal fa

mily, had a history of hemophilia, a sex-linked disorder that is determined by a recessive allele on the X chromosome.

The question is the following :
<span>What is the best evidence to prove that Irene was heterozygous for hemophilia?
A) Alice carried the recessive allele.
B) Alexandra carried the recessive allele.
C) Frederick carried the recessive allele.
D) Waldemar carried the recessive allele.


The correct answer is A

In the pedigree, marked with blue are the carriers of the X recessive allele ( they have one X that has the mutation and the other that doesn't).
Alice was Irene's' mother, and since both Alice and iIrene have the allele, it is safe to conclude that Irene inherited the recessive allele from Alice.</span>

By what mechanism would a nonpolar molecule move across a membrane if it is moving up its concentration gradient
SVEN [57.7K]
Non polar molecule move across a membrane through simple diffusion, when moving up their concentration gradient. Simple diffusion involves movement of molecules through a membrane without the help of integral membrane protein. These molecules are driven by the force of diffusion. This is different from facilitated diffusion where molecules only move with the aid of integral protein in the membrane.

Fluid filled sacs in the knee are specifically called
antoniya [11.8K]
Fluid filled sacs in the knee are specifically called Bursa or Bursae. Bursae is plural for Bursa.
A bursa is a closed fluid filled sac that function as a gliding surface to reduce friction between tissues of the body. Knee bursitis occurs when there is irritation or inflammation in one one of the knee bursa. The procedure of removing fluid-filled sac is called bursectomy. When the bursa become infected with bacteria, this condition is called septic bursitis.

Why are common names a problem for scientist?
Bess [88]

It can be confusing because it isn't specific enough. In astronomy, the big dipper is not a spoon. It is a bear. Scientists know it as Ursa Major rather than a dipper or bear.

what is the meaning of phosphoryl transfer potential and what does it mean to have a high or low phosphoryl transfer potential?
makvit [3.9K]

Phosphoryl-transfer potential is the ability of an organic molecule to transfer its terminal phosphoryl group to water which is an acceptor molecule. It is the “standard free energy of hydrolysis”.

Explanation:

This potential plays a key role during cellular energy transformation by energy coupling during ATP hydrolysis.  

A compound with a high phosphoryl-transfer potential has the increased ability to couple the carbon oxidation with ATP synthesis and can accelerate cellular energy transformation.  

A compound with a high phosphoryl-transfer potential can readily donate its terminal phosphate group; whereas, a compound with a low has a lesser ability to donate its phosphate group.

ATP molecules have a high phosphoryl transfer potential due to its structure, resonance stabilization, high entropy, electrostatic repulsion and stabilization by hydration. Compounds like creatine phosphate, phosphoenolpyruvate also have high phosphoryl-transfer potential.
