Refer to the figure showing a pedigree of a family affected by an x-linked recessive disorder. A female in generation 3 isn't a

carrier of the disorder. How can this be?
A. Females receive X chromosomes from this fathers only, which are unaffected in this case.
B. Females don't have X chromosomes so aren't affected by gene disorders passed on the X chromosome.
C. Females receive an X chromosomes from each point parent, but in cases of recessive disorders, the muted chromosome isn't passed on to daughters.
D. Females receive an X chromosome from each parent. If a mother is a carrier of an X-linked recessive disorder, her daughters have 50 percent chance of receiving her normal X chromosome and a 50 percent chance of receiving her mutated X chromosome.

Answer:

D. Females receive an X chromosome from each parent. If a mother is a carrier of an X-linked recessive disorder, her daughters have 50 percent chance of receiving her normal X chromosome and a 50 percent chance of receiving her mutated X chromosome.

Explanation:

Females have XX chromosomes as allosomes. They receive one X chromosome from mother and one from father. The female in the III generation received both the healthy X chromosomes from each parent that is why she is not even carrier for the disease.

The modified diagram clearly indicating the genotyope of all the members of the pedigree tree is attached. In the diagram, healthy X chromosome is indicated by X while mutated X chromosome is indicated by doted X. It is clear from the diagram that this female of III generation has XX chromosomes.  

The cross for that particular female is shown as under:

                               Mother               Father

                                   ẊX      x             XY

                                  /     \                  /     \

                               ẊX     ẊY          XX    XY

XX are the allosomes of this female child.

Calculate the number of moles in the following: 2.8 X 10^24 atoms of Cl2
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 4.65 moles</h3>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question

N = 2.8 × 10²⁴ atoms of Cl2

So we have

n =  \frac{2.8 \times  {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23}  }  \\  = 4.65116279069...

We have the final answer as

<h3>4.65 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

How does matter change phase?
crimeas [40]

Answer:

Phase changes typically occur when the temperature or pressure of a system is altered. When temperature or pressure increases, molecules interact more with each other. When pressure increases or temperature decreases, it's easier for atoms and molecules to settle into a more rigid structure.

What is the number of electrons will chlorine most likely gain/lose
LuckyWell [14K]

Gain 1.

This is because of Chlorine's placement on the periodic table. Chlorine is a Halogen, thus being located in group 17 or 7A. This means it is one of the closest elements to being a Noble Gas or group 18/8A.

Chlorine has 7 valence electrons, and in order for it to become a Noble Gas, it needs 8. Cl- is typically the symbol used to represent this as Chlorine needs to gain an electrons instead of lose; once Chlorine gains the electron, it will be stable.

This also means that Chlorine has a high ionization energy or, in simpler terms, it would be difficult to remove an electron from Chlorine.

Hope this helps!

Hydrogenation reactions, in which H2 and an "unsaturated" organic compound combine, are used in the food, fuel, and polymer indu
ddd [48]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of heat released is 56 MJ.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}  

Given mass of C_2H_6 = 12 kg = 12000 g    (Conversion factor: 1 kg = 1000 g)

Molar mass of C_2H_6 = 30 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Moles of }C_2H_6=\frac{12000g}{30g/mol}=400mol

The chemical reaction for hydrogenation of ethene follows the equation:

C_2H_4+H_2\rightarrow C_2H_6

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

When 1 mole of ethane releases 140 kJ of heat.

So, 400 moles of ethane will release = \frac{140}{1}\times 400=56000kJ of heat.

Converting this into Mega joules, using the conversion factor:

1 MJ = 1000 kJ

So, \Rightarrow 56000kJ\times (\frac{1MJ}{1000kJ})=56MJ

Hence, the amount of heat released is 56 MJ.
