Before it hits your tap, unfiltered water from the Catskills winds its way through 6,000 miles of pipes aqueducts and tunnels.

Most of New York City's water -- 90 percent -- comes from the Kensico Reservoir. It holds 30 billion gallons and then travels to the ultra violet treatment facility in Westchester County, where 12,000 bulbs treat 1 billion gallons of water a day.

dybincka [34]

Answer:

1/2

Explanation:

let the alleles of the heterozygous woman without hemophilia be = Xhx

And the alleles of the man with hemophilia be XhY

If both XhY × Xhx; we have:

                  Xh                   Y

Xh              XhXh               XhY

x                Xhx                  xY  

XhXh and  XhY are affected  by the diseases

Xhx is a carrier

xY is normal

∴ the probability(chance) that their first child will have the disease  is 2/4 of the total offspring

=1/2

∴ the probability (chance) that their first child will have the disease is 1/2
