Isotopes are variants of a particular chemical element which differ in neutron number (neutral particle)and all isotopes of a given element have the same number of protons (positive particle) in each atom.So isotope B of the sodium will have 11 protons, 11 electrons but it may have a wide range in its number of neutrons.
Answer:
Probability that the son will be:
color-blind = 1/2
blue eyed = 1/8
blue eyed and color-blind = 1/16
Explanation:
Mother : BbXcX
Father : BbXY
Colorblindness is X linked recessive trait hence will be caused when the son has XcY genotype.
XcX X XY :
Xc X
X XcX XX
Y XcY XY
Half of the sons will have normal vision and other half will be colorblind hence, there is 1/2 probability that the son will be colorblind.
Eye color is autosomal trait and blue color will be produced when the child has bb genotype.
Bb X Bb :
B b
B BB Bb
b Bb bb
1/4 of the children will have blue eyes. Since half of the children are expected to be males, 1/4 * 1/2 = 1/8 sons are expected to have blue eyes.
Probability of a son being blue eyed and color blind will be :
1/8 * 1/2 = 1/16
Yes, peas are haploid organisms. Only because they reproduce sexually
The SI system or metric system is the most commonly used system of measurement around and hence makes it more applicable around the world than the english SOM
Explanation:
Whereas primary tissues allow for vertical growth, secondary tissues allow for lateral growth: they allow stems and roots to become wider. In roots, the formation of both secondary meristems involves the pericycle.
