Hi there!

The best possible scenario for the giraffes with longer necks to survive would be one in which all the lower leaves somehow disappear! This would mean only giraffes with longer necks can eat therefore those will have a better chance of surviving. Luckily the answer that fits that perfectly would be...

D. Monkeys swarm in and tear off all of the lower leaves to use for shelters.

Hemophilia is a sex-linked trait. A hemophilic male produces offspring with a carrier female. What are the chances that the fema
Anton [14]
Hemophilia is a X-linked recessive trait. I will denote it as XA for dominant and Xa for recessive.

Hemophilic male: Xa Y
Carrier female: XA Xa

Cross:

Xa Y
XA XaXA XAY
Xa XaXa XaY

Thus, as shown, of the ratio of two possible female offspring genotypes for Hemophilia, only 1/2 will have the disease; the chance is therefore 50%.

The ratio for male offspring genotypes for Hemophilia is 1/2 as well; the chance is therefore 50%.
