Answer:

The correct answer would be nucleic acid or DNA.

It is an X-linked recessive disorder which is caused by a mutation in the gene present on X chromosome.

This mutated allele produced non-functional protein (clotting factor) due to which blood does not clot efficiently.

Consequently, the blood flows for longer time than normal.

Hemophilia is caused by a defect in the genes responsible for the formation of blood clotting factors viii and ix. These genes are located on the X chromosome. A female has two X chromosomes and a male has an X chromosome and a Y chromosome. Therefore, all the daughters of a hemophiliac father will be the carriers of this disease, and half of his sons acquiring the X chromosome from the father will have the disease.

Two organisms have analogous structures. A student concluded that these organisms must have a common ancestor is the student cor
arsen [322]

Answer:

The student is wrong, just because the analogous structures of any two organism may have the same structure or even have the some relation between there way of operation or functions.

Explanation:

  • <u>Analogous Structures:</u>

As the similarity between two or more different organisms structure or any organ does not means that they have same ancestors or have the common origin from which the evolve into two different species. Now analogous structures are very much similar in there structure physically, but two different organisms may use them for the same function, which is astonishing to see or observe in way different species.

  • <u>For example:</u>

As the structure of the flipper of a Dolphin has similarity with the phalanges of a human being and with the wings of the bat. As all of them functions for the basic need of movement or locomotion from one point to another. While, all the three species are very much different in there features and are not the same obviously.
