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.

William measures a test tube and finds that the mass of the test tube is 5g. He places the lone reactant in the test tube and fi
iogann1982 [59]

86 percent is the percent yield for this experiment if he expected to produce 5g of product.

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of test tube = 5 grams

mass of test tube + reactant is 12.5 grams

mass of reactant = ( mass of test tube + reactant ) - (mass of test tube)

mass of reactant = 12.5 -5

                             = 7.5 grams

when 7.5 grams of reactant is heated mass of test tube was found to be 9.3 grams.

so mass of product formed = 9.3 - 5

                                             = 4. 3 grams of product is formed (actual yield)

However, he expected the product to be 5 grams (theoretical yield)

Percent yield = \frac{actual yield}{theoretical yield} x 100

          putting the values in the formula:

percent yield = \frac{4.3}{5} x 100

                     = 86 %

86 percent is the percent yield.

In an experiment, 3.25 g of NH3 are allowed to react with 3.50 g of O2. 4NH3 + 5O2 &gt; 4NO + 6H2O a. Which reactant is the limi
cluponka [151]

Answer:

2.61 g of NO will be formed

The limiting reagent is the O₂

Explanation:

The reaction is:

4NH₃  +  5O₂  →  4NO  +  6H₂O

We convert the mass of the reactants to moles:

3.25g / 17 g/mol = 0.191 moles of NH₃

3.50g / 32 g/mol =0.109 moles of O₂

Let's determine the limiting reactant by stoichiometry:

4 moles of ammonia react with 5 moles of oxygen

Then, 0.191 moles of ammonia will react with (0.191 . 5) / 4 = 0.238 moles of oxygen. We only have 0.109 moles of O₂ and we need 0.238, so as the oxygen is not enough, this is the limiting reagent

Ratio with NO is 5:4

5 moles of oxygen produce 4 moles of NO

0.109 moles will produce (0.109 . 4)/ 5 = 0.0872 moles of NO

We convert the moles to mass, to get the answer

0.0872 mol . 30g / 1 mol = 2.61 g

An irrelgular object with a mass of 118g displaces 25ml of water when placed in a graduated cylinder. What is the density
oksian1 [2.3K]
Density =  Mass of Object / Volume of water displaced.

The volume of water displaced is the same as the volume of the object.

Density =  118 g / 25 ml

             =    4.72 g/ml

But  1 liter =  1000 cm³
       1 mL  = 1 cm³

             Density =   4.72 g/ml = 4.72 g/cm³
