Answer

The ATP molecule is necessary in this type of transport due to the particles are moving against the concentration gradient.

Explanation:

ATP is needed for many functions that require energy, and one of them is active transport across the cell membrane.

Unlike passive transport, where particles move along the concentration gradient, active transport -which uses the energy of ATP- is characterized by mobilizing particles against the concentration gradient.

The cell membrane is semi-permeable, so some substances cannot pass freely, requiring transporters to be able to pass through it.

Other options are not true for:

A. A charged particle can move through a channel specific to it.

C. There is no particle entrapment in the plasma membrane.

D. Particles do not move in favor of a concentration gradient.

Answer:

Half.

Explanation:

Autosominal dominant trait are express are able to express themselves in the homozygous dominant as well as in the heterozygous condition. The X-linked recessive traits are mostly expressed in males since they have only one X chromosome. Female shows X linked recessive trait when her both X chromosome are affected.

The achandroplastic dwarf man with normal vision is married with a color blind woman with normal height. The mother is affected with vision, she definitely pass this trait to his son. The male is affected with achondroplastic (may be homozygous dominant or heterozygous) and the female is normal (homozygous recessive). The probability can be calculated including both the achandroplastic and vision trait. Half of the males are color blind with normal height (multiplying the probability of vision and achandroplatic trait).

Behavioural genetics is the study of the effects of genes as well as well the environment on the behaviour of the individuals. The scientists who study the Behavioural genetics are known as behavioural geneticists.

In this case Dr. Hakim is studying the influence of genes and the environment on the aggression, which is a kind of behaviour. Hence, Dr. Hakim is a behavioural geneticists, and he works in in the field of behavioural genetics.
