Imagine a scenario where Barr bodies are not due to random inactivation, but rather, the silencing is due to paternal imprinting

(paternal allele is silenced). How would this change the frequency of red/green colorblindness between men and women in the population?

Answer:

<h2>If Barr bodies are not due to random inactivation, but rather, the silencing is due to paternal imprinting  then the frequency of men and women differs. </h2>

Explanation:

Red-green color  blindness: color blindness is an X-linked recessive disorder. The male having this disease will transmit his X chromosome (with the mutation) to his daughter, who will then be a carrier of the disease.  

If Barr bodies are not due to random inactivation, but rather, the silencing is due to paternal imprinting  then the frequency of men and women differs.

Male inherit its X chromosome only from mother and no X chromosome from father, having one Y chromosome but female receive one X chromosome from father and one from mother, having no Y chromosome, So if the paternal allele is silenced then the males are no affected.

which of these components of a cell functions like the digestive system in the human body,endoplasmic reticulum,golgi apparatus,
My name is Ann [436]
Well the endoplasmic reticulum has both smooth and rough bodies. Smooth is the synthesis of fats and detoxifies harmful bodies. Mostly in the liver. And the rough mainly synthesize proteins which are basic components of life. Proteins are sent all over the body and are used for many functions. The golgi is used to package those proteins and send those proteins through the body. Mitochondria creates energy and is the power house of the cell. And the plasma membrane is like the gate keeper. Decides what can enter it exit the cell and prevents harmful things from coming in. Allows proteins to leave.
