The answer is x-linked recessive. It is apparent that the color blindness affects the males hence it's caused by a sex-linked recessive gene. Males have XY homologous chromosomes. The X sister chromosome has more genes than the Y sister chromosome, hence most males are hemizygous for sex linked genes. This means that even recessive genes on the X chromosome are likely to be expressed in males.
The 3 types of round warms that can cause diseases include:
<span>1. Ascaris lumbricoides
</span>2. <span>Threadworm
3. </span><span>Trichuriasis also known as whipworms
They can cause skin infection and are prevented through deworming.</span>
If A is dominant allele, and a is recessive allel, than:
p is frequency of A allele, q is a frequency of a allele, p2 is a frequency of homozygous dominant genotype, 2pq is frequency of heterozygous genotype and q2 is frequency of homozygous recessive genotype.
If the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium; p+q=1
p=0.15 q=1-0.15=0.85
2pq=2*0.15*0.85=0.255~26%
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Divergent evolution;
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- Divergent evolution is the process of two or more related species becoming more and more dissimilar. In this type of evolution groups of species from the same common ancestor evolve and accumulate differences, resulting in the formation of new species.
- For example; <em><u>The red fox and the kit fox. The red fox and the kit fox both have a common ancestor but have gone through the process of divergent evolution. It has adapted to its mixed farmland and forest environment. Its red color helps it to blend in with the trees. </u></em>
- <em><u>The kit fox is sandy in appearance because it lives in the desert. It also has larger ears than the red fox and its larger ears help the fox release excess body heat in the desert.</u></em>
