Answer:
The number of STR repeats is unique and therefore it is considered as an allele of that <em>locus</em>
Explanation:
Short Tandem Repeats (STRs), also known as microsatellites or simple sequence repeats (SSRs), are short DNA sequences with a size of 1-6 nucleotide bases which may be many times repeated in tandem. STRs localize in specific regions of the genome (<em>loci</em>) and therefore they are molecular markers. Gel electrophoresis a technique used to separate DNA fragments based on their size. In consequence, the pattern of STR repeats or 'alleles' obtained by electrophoresis can be used to identify individuals. In a gel electrophoresis, STR markers produce different bands that run more slowly or faster on the gel in different lanes according to their size (e.g., more slowly >> higher size of the STR sequence), and thereby STR alleles are unique and serve to identify individuals.

Answer:
25% colorblind daughter: 25% colorblind son: 25% carrier daughters with normal vision: 25% normal son.
Explanation:
The genotype of a color-blind man is X^cY and the genotype of the heterozygous carrier female is X^cX. A cross between X^cY and X^cX would produce a progeny in following ratio=
25% colorblind daughter: 25% colorblind son: 25% carrier daughters with normal vision: 25% normal son.
Therefore, the couple is likely to have 50% normal son and 50% affected son. Likewise, the couple is likely to have 50% normal daughters and 50% colorblind daughters.
The correct answer is - predator species in a community.
In the terrestrial ecosystems, a very good and usually sure predictor of the biodiversity is the existence of a predator species. The more predator species there are, the higher the biodiversity, and vice versa, the less predator species, the lesser the biodiversity.
The reason why the predators are such a good predictor of the biodiversity is that they are the species that are on the top of the food chain. That means that the predators are dependent for their survival on all the other species bellow them in the food chain, which is pretty much all species apart from themselves.
If a predator is present, than there has to be pray. If there's pray, omnivores and herbivores, than there has to be plants. All of the organisms are connected to one another, and the ones on the top of the food chain are the most dependent on the others, thus their existence usually means a healthy ecosystem with higher biodiversity.
Your answer would be Neptune. The planet can cause wind-speeds of frozen methane of up to 1,200 mph.
