1.cc
2.Cc
3.Yes a female can have color blindness, but it is far less likely than a male , as both her x chromosomes would have to have the recessive c .
4.
5.All would be carriers, as they would each get Cc , because those are the only inheritable genotypes.
6.The male children would all be non colorblind , because they inherit a y from their dad to be male , and the mom isn't a carrier , so the only x they inherit is a C.

Answer and explanation.

1. The genotype of a male with red-green color blindness is XcY.

2. The genotype of a female who is not color-blind but is a carrier is XcXC. She carries the color-blind allele but is not dominat, so she is not affected by it.

3. Yes, a female can have red-green color blindness, if her two X chromosomes are cX (recessive), she will have red-green color blindness. In other words, if the two X chromosomes carry the allele for color-blindness she will be affected by it.

4. Possible genotypes are Cc, CC, Cc, and CC. or as it is in the Punnet square XcXc, XcY, XCXc, XCY.

<u>       ║    Xc  ║ Y</u>

<u> Xc ║ XcXc ║ XcY </u>

<u> XC ║ XCXc║ XCY </u>

5. The female children will be carriers of the color-blind allele becaus one of her two X chromosomes, has the recessive allele for color-blind while the other X chromosome has not the allele for color-blindness.

6. None of the male children will be color-blindness because the allele for color-blindness is carried by the X chromosome of the father and they inherit the X chromosome from the mother, who is color-blind free.

Jamal drew a flow chart to show how the carbon in his brain tissue originated as co2 in the atmosphere. interpret his model.
bezimeni [28]

We have heard about Respiration. In human beings, respiration is a cellular activity which takes place in the presence of oxygen and in result produces carbon dioxide. Jamal model is a clear manifestation of that process. Medulla is the region of a brain that controls the respiration activity. When we breathe we take in oxygen and the excess amount of carbon dioxide is removed from out body.

Brains cells have capability to detect the carbon concentration in blood and add excess amount of carbon from body to the air.

How does ATP enable transport proteins to move ions across a cell membrane?​
Alekssandra [29.7K]

The ATP enables the movement of transport proteins to move the ions across a cell membrane by its getting fueled by its hydrolysis

<u>Explanation:</u>

The plasma membrane is a semi permeable membrane that is the movement of molecules across the membrane is constricted. There are 2 types of moment across the plasma membrane one is the active transport and the other is the passive transport. The active transport involves the help of ATP whereas the passive transport does not involve ATP to transport the materials.
