Answer:The statistical probability of getting either a male or female is 50:50 because,

Explanation:

1. The sex of a child is determined at the moment of fertilization. There are usually two types of sex chromosome, the X and Y chromosome. The male has XY chromosome, that is each sperm carries either an X chromosome or a Y chromosome while the female has XX chromosome, that is each ovum (egg) carries an X chromosome.

2. It's only one of the chromosome is released for fertilization. If the X type sperm unites with the ovum (which has only X chromosomes), then the genotype of the resultant child is XX which is a female but if a Y type sperm unites with the ovum, the result is an XY genotype which is a male.

By understanding DNA and gene expression, humans have been able to understand how genetic diseases are caused, therefore they have been able to devise gene therapy and other technologies to treat such disease. Second, the understanding has also allowed humans to devise plants that are resistant to pests and drought hence increasing crop yields.

A negative aspect of this understanding is the issue of bioterrorism. In the wrong hands, this technology can be used against society. The technology can be used to modify organisms to make them deliberately harmful to humans. Second is the issue of bioethics. This technology can be used to enhance humans and result to an ‘arms race’ between human races that can tear down the social fabric.

Why would there be a relationship between photosynthesis and temperature<br><br> Help me
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Enzyme-controlled chemical reactions combining carbon dioxide and glucose water. The photosynthetic rate is affected by the temperature much like any other enzyme-controlled reaction.

Explanation:

At low temperatures, the number of molecular collisions between enzymes and substrates limits the photosynthetic rate. Enzymes are denatured at high temperatures.

Enzymes are protein molecules used in biological reactions by living organisms. The proteins are folded in a very specific form, which enables them to effectively bind to the molecules of interest. The enzymes used for photosynthesis perform less efficiently at a low temperature between 32 and 50 degrees Fahrenheit 0, 10, and 10 degrees Celsius, which lowers the photosynthesis rate.This will lead to lower glucose synthesis and slow growth. In the case of plants in a greenhouse, this is prevented by installing a greenhouse heater and thermostat.
