Hemophilia B, a blood clotting disorder, is an X-linked recessive trait. What is the expected percentage of offspring with hemop

hilia that would be produced by a father who does not have hemophilia and a mother who is heterozygous for this trait

Answer:

The correct answer is 25%.

Explanation:

Considering that Hemophilia B is an X-linked recessive disease, than for it to be observed in female offspring, the mother must be homozygous recessive because females have XX chromosomes and if the father transfers only the dominant gene then the female offspring will always be heterozygous dominant.

In the case of a father who carries the dominant gene on his X choromosome and a mother who is heterozygous for the disease meaning she has both the dominant and the recessive gene, if we calculate the percentages for this situation, we see that for the first generation, one female offspring is heterozygous dominant, one female offspring if homozygous, one male offspring carries the dominant gene on his X chromosome and the other male offspring carries the recessive gene on his X choromosome which is the one that carries the disease.

I hope this answer helps.

What is the answer for this question please help
Nezavi [6.7K]
The plant belongs to the group Angiosperm. Vascular plants with seeds could be cycads, Gingko, conifers, or angiosperms. Among those groups, only angiosperms have flowers.
The plant they found have colored, scented flowers which suggests that it could be pollinated by insects or birds. Colored flowers attract birds and insects. Color serves as a guiding mark. Talking of scent, it does not attract bird, but attracts insects. It also serves as the guiding mark.

Distinguish the types of forgetting: anterograde amnesia, retrograde amnesia, encoding failure, retrieval failure, and interfere
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Anterograde amnesia is the inability to create new memories after the onset of amnesia, while memories from before the event remain intact. Brain regions related to this condition include the medial temporal lobe, medial diencephalon, and hippocampus. Anterograde amnesia can be caused by the effects of long-term alcoholism, severe malnutrition, stroke, head trauma, surgery, Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, cerebrovascular events, anoxia, or other trauma. Retrograde amnesia is the inability to recall memories made before the onset of amnesia. Retrograde amnesia is usually caused by head trauma or brain damage to parts of the brain other than the hippocampus (which is involved with the encoding process of new memories). Brain damage causing retrograde amnesia can be as varied as a cerebrovascular accident, stroke, tumor, hypoxia, encephalitis, or chronic alcoholism. The there is encoding failure. Encoding is the process of converting sensory input into a form able to be processed and stored in the memory. However, this process can be impacted by a number of factors, and how well information is encoded affects how well it is able to be recalled later. On the other hand, retrieval failure is the failure to recall information in the absence of memory cues. Proactive interference occurs when old memories hinder the ability to make new memories. In this type of interference, old information inhibits the ability to remember new information, such as when outdated scientific facts interfere with the ability to remember updated facts. This often occurs when memories are learned in similar contexts, or regarding similar things. It’s when we have preconceived notions about situations and events, and apply them to current situations and events.Retroactive interference occurs when old memories are changed by new ones, sometimes so much that the original memory is forgotten. This is when newly learned information interferes with and impedes the recall of previously learned information. The ability to recall previously learned information is greatly reduced if that information is not utilized, and there is substantial new information being presented. This often occurs when hearing recent news figures, then trying to remember earlier facts and figures.
