Answer:
Because hemophilia is an X-linked recessive condition.
Explanation:
As the problem states, hemophilia is an X-linked recessive condition.
- Meaning that in Queen Victoria's female descendants (coded XX) which inherited the Queen's one allele, for hemophilia to appear in them it would be necessary to inherit another hemophillia-carrying allele from the father.
- The Queen's male descendants (coded XY) would always manifest hemophilia if they inherited the Queen's hemophilia allele, as they possesed only one X gene.
According to natural selection process, the trend that will occur is that the number of organisms with harmful characteristics will decrease while organisms with neutral or beneficial traits will increase in the plant population
<h3>What is natural selection?</h3>
Natural selection is the process by which organisms with favorable features and characteristics that enable them to adapt to their environment survive while those with unfavorable traits die off.
In a changing environment, it will be observed that the organisms with the most favorable traits will be the most dominant in the environment.
Therefore, for the Year 5 and Year 10, the most likely trend that will occur is that the organisms with harmful characteristics will be decreasing in the plant population while organisms with neutral or beneficial traits will likely be increasing in number.

Answer: The genotype ratio is 2Ff : 2ff
The phenotype ratio is two normal feathered birds to two silky feathered birds.
Explanation: Let F represent the gene for normal feather and f represent the gene for silky feather. F is dominant while f is recessive, therefore a male that is hybrid for trait of normal feather is heterozygous and will have a genotype of Ff, a female that is homozygous for silky feather will have a genotype of ff.
A cross between Ff and ff will yield 2Ff birds and 2ff birds. Since F is dominant, a bird having genotype of Ff will manifest outwardly as blue feathered birds while ff will manifest outwardly as silky feathered birds because f is recessive and must occur in a homozygous condition in order to manifest phenotypically. Therefore, the genotype ratio is 2Ff: 2ff.

Explanation:
Receptors = Sensory neurons
Relay = Relay neurons
Effectors = Motor neurons
Cell bodies of sensory neurons are only found in the root ganglion. (F)
Cell bodies of relay neurons are only found is the grey matter of the spinal cord. (G)
Cell bodies of motor neurons are also found at G.
Hence the answer is Option D.
