Answer:
This disorder is caused by a recessive allele, its inheritance is sex-linked.
Explanation:
The disorder affects boys born to unaffected parents, this means that at least one of them has to be a carrier of the allele which causes the disease. So, if the allele was dominant, it would express in parents and sons. But, in this case, only is expressed in sons, so it can´t be dominant. Moreover, this condition has a sex-linked inheritance because it is always seen in boys and never in girls. This happens due to boys only have an X chromosome, so if they inherit the recessive allele of the disease, they will express it. On the other hand, girls have two X chromosomes, so if they inherit one copy of the recessive allele, they will be carriers and they won't be affected.
This disorder is never seen in females because they need to have two copies of the recessive allele. However, to have double copy, they should inherit one copy from their mothers and one copy of their fathers, but boys with the allele are affected and they die in early teens without having progeny. Therefore, a girl can't have a "carrier-father", so they will never have two copies to express the disorder.
Hibernation
Animals use this in the winter in order to store energy when resources are low
Answer:
1. Minimum viable population is the estimate of the fewest number of organisms a population needs to avoid extinction.
2. The measurement will most likely stay the same if the number of offspring each female in the population produces increases.
3. If the death rate increases, this measurement will most likely increase.
Explanation:
Minimum Viable Population:
- Minimum viable population is an ecological threshold that signifies the minimum number of individuals required to prevent the species from going extinct.
- MVP determines population conservation benchmarks.
- MVP also helps in keeping a population genetically diverse as a limited number of individuals present limited mating opportunities and therefore limited genetic diversity.
Kingdom Monera was the oldest kingdom of living organisms. The organisms in the kingdom were simple, single celled and their cellular organelles were not covered by membranes. Prokaryotic bacteria were the first known Monerans. However, scientists think that Monerans were evolved into more complex eukaryotic organisms (Protists) with the passage of time.
But how did Monera (Prokaryotes) was evolved into Protista (Eukaryotes)?
Protista are eukaryotes, unicellular or simple multicellular organisms.Many theories were proposed for this evolution, but one that makes most sense was endosymbiotic theory. According to this, the first eukaryotic cells were evolved when two prokaryotic cells existed in an endo-symbiotic relationship. Larger prokaryotic cells engulfed smaller prokaryotic cells. The smaller cells got shelter and nutrients from larger cells and both co-existed in a mutualistic relationship. Both cells eventually evolved into organelles and got never aparted. This is how more complex organisms’ protists were evolved from simple monerans. It was a gradual process and took millions of years.
The earliest fungi were single-celled organisms that contain a flagella to move from one place to another. Recent studies indicate that fungi belong to a group of organisms which were evolved from protists over the course of time. These studies are based on the nucleotide sequence of fungi that matches to a large extent with old protists. It is estimates that fungi evolved 600 million years or even before.
Answer:
covalent, which repel water molecules
they contain ions, which make the entire molecule hydrophilic
they are less dense than liquid water, so they float on the surface
most of their bonds are nonpolar covalent, so they are not attracted to water
