Answer:
The possible blood types of their children are: type AB (iAiB), type A (iAi), type B (iBi), type O (ii)
Explanation:
Blood type in humans is controlled by a gene with multiple alleles. Alleles iA and iB are dominant over allele i but co-dominant. The following blood types are encoded by the following alleles:
Blood type AB - iAiB
Blood type A - iAiA or iAi
Blood type B - iBiB or iBi
Blood type O - ii
According to this question, a man who has type B blood has children with a woman who has type A blood. They are both heterozygous, meaning that the man's genotype is "iBi" while the woman's genotype is "iAi". Both parents will produce gametes as follows:
iBi = iB and i
iAi = iA and I
Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following possible blood types are produced in the offsprings:
- type AB (iAiB)
- type A (iAi)
- type B (iBi)
- type O (ii)
<span>The correct answer is c. producer: elodea, consumer: squirrel, decomposer: crayfish, abiotic: phosphates.</span>
Elodea-the aquatic autotrophic plant (makes its own food) which does photosynthesis,
Squirrel-animal, heterotrophic organism (consume food which plant produce), <span>Crayfish- feed on animals and plants, either living or decomposing, and detritus,</span> <span>Phosphates-non-living, organic or inorganic molecule.</span>
<span>Money supply refers to the total amount of money circulating in the economy at a specific time. Standard measure of money usually include the currency in circulation and the demand deposits. These are data that are recorded and published usually by the government or the central bank of the country. Supply and demand also depends on money supply in terms of consumerism.</span>
