girl of normal stature is born to two parents with achondroplasia who have very short stature, especially disproportionately sho

rt arms and legs. What is the probability (by Punnett Square analysis) that any pregnancy this girl eventually has will result in the birth of an infant with achondroplasia if her partner also has normal stature?A. Three out of four (75%)B. Two out of four (50%)C. One out of four (25%)D. Zero out of four (0%)

Answer:

Option D, Zero out of four (0%)

Explanation:

As we know,  achondroplasia is an autosomal dominant pattern. Now a girl having normal stature mate with a partner who also has a normal stature.

Thus let us assume -

Allele for disproportionately short arms and legs be represented by "A"

while allele for normal stature be represented by "a"

Now genotype of parents would be

Female - aa

Male - aa

Thus,

aa x aa

aa, aa, aa, aa

Thus, option D is  correct.

Describe what you think is happening during photosynthesis.
sineoko [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>I think during photosynthesis, plants take in carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) from the air and soil. This transforms the water into oxygen and the carbon dioxide into glucose. The plant then releases the oxygen back into the air, and stores energy within the glucose molecules.</em>

Predict the dominant type of bonding by considering electronegativity.
Vlad1618 [11]
If the atoms that are bonding have identical electronegativities, then it's a completely nonpolar covalent bond. This doesn't happen in the real world unless the two atoms are of the same element. In a practical sense, any two elements with an electronegativity difference less than 0.3 is considered to be nonpolar covalent.
As the difference between the atoms increases, the covalent bond becomes increasingly polar. At a polarity difference of 1.7 (this changes depending on who you ask) we consider it no longer to be a covalent bond and to be the electrostatic interactions characteristic in an ionic compound.
Just so you know, you shouldn't take these values as exact. ALL interactions between adjacent atoms involve some sharing of electrons, no matter how big the difference in electronegativity. Sure, you wouldn't expect much sharing in KF, but there's a little sharing of electrons anyway. There's certainly no big cutoff that happens at a difference of 1.7 Pauling Electronegativity units.
