Answer: A). 2.7 million people per year

Explanation:

From 2000 to 2010 is 10 years. Change in population in 10 years = population at the beginning of 2010 minus the population at the beginning of 2000. This is:

309 million -282 million = 27 million.

Therefore average change in population person year = 27 million/10 = 2.7 million per year

The genetic fault that usually causes colour vision deficiency is passed on in what's known as an X-linked inheritance pattern.

This means:

1) it mainly affects boys, but can affect girls in some cases

2) girls are usually carriers of the genetic fault – this means they can pass it on to their children, but do not have a colour vision deficiency themselves

3) it's usually passed on by a mother to her son – the mother will often be unaffected as she'll normally just be a carrier of the genetic fault

4) fathers with a colour vision deficiency will not have children with the problem unless their partner is a carrier of the genetic fault

5) it can often skip a generation – for example, it may affect a grandfather and their grandson

6) girls are only affected if their father has a colour vision deficiency and their mother is a carrier of the genetic fault

guapka [62]

Answer:

My hypothesis is that the Hawaiian Island chain was formed by a hot spot in the middle of the Pacific Plate. While the hot spot itself is fixed, the plate is moving. My data supports my hypothesis because as the plate moved over the hot spot, the islands that make up the Hawaiian Island chain were formed.
