Salinity is a measure of dissolved salts in water bodies such as oceans, rivers, seas etc. Salinity is calculated as the amount of salt (in grams) dissolved in one kilogram (1,000 grams) of seawater. Sodium chloride are the main salts with other elements such as magnesium, calcium and potassium that can be found in sea water.

Assuming that both parents are heterozygous for the gene that causes the disease, what is the probability that the second child
LiRa [457]
The independent assortment of genes is a principle of Mendel and of genetics. Since humans are diploid organisms (they have 2 copies of their genetic information), we have that each gamete carries one of the two available alleles for each feature. These gametes are created in equal proportions.

We have that both parents are heterozygous for a feature, lets say H. Thus, their genotype is Hh. Hence, the child will get with probability 50%=1/2 H from the father and 50%=1/2 h from the father; same from the mother. By doing a Punnett square, we get that there is 1/4 chance that the child is HH, 1/2 chance that it is Hh and 1/4 that is hh. Since the disease is recessive (so both alleles are needed), we have that the chance that the kid has the disease is 1/4.

What is the cause of the peripheral edema that often manifests with glomerulonephritis and nephrotic syndrome?.
marta [7]

Answer:

Nephrotic syndrome (also called nephrosis) happens when your kidneys start losing large amounts of protein in your urine. As your kidneys get worse, extra fluids and salt build up in your body. This causes you to have swelling (edema), high blood pressure and higher levels of cholesterol.

Explain the role of the cork cambium in woody plants.
kiruha [24]

Answer:

The cork cambium is a natural insulator that protects woody plants from an hostile environment.

Explanation:

The cork Cambium is a tissue that belongs to the epidermis, it is responsible for the secundary growth in the plant and replaces the epidermis in roots and stems. The cork cambium also protects the plant from overhydration, it is waterproof and has really selective ways to let the water into the plant (apoplastic and symplastic pathway).

There is some special plants in the coast of the tropical area called mangrooves, these plants has really specialized cork cambium that controls not only the water levels but also the salt levels into the plant.

The cork cambium is really important because protects and regulates the plant and its environment.
