Map pling Sickle-cell anemia is a disease that affects the type of hemoglobin (Hb) a person makes in his or her red blood cells.

Consider the case of Martin and Cindy, who are the parents of Mary. Martin has sickle-cell anemia with abnormal hemoglobin, and his genotype is HbS/HbS. Cindy has normal hemoglobin, and her genotype is HbA/HbA Their child, Mary, carries the sickle-cell trait and produces both normal hemoglobin and abnormal hemoglobin. Mary's genotype is Hbs/HbA. What type of dominance pattern would result in Mary's blood producing both normal and abnormal O incomplete dominance O pseudodominance O complete dominance O codominance

Answer:

The correct answer is codominance.

Explanation:

It is given in the question that the genotype of Martin is HbS/HbS, and is exhibiting sickle cell anemia with unusual hemoglobin. On the other hand, the genotype of Cindy is HbA/HbA, which shows that she possesses normal hemoglobin. Both of them have a child, Mary who as usual is exhibiting genotype HbS/HbA.  

This shows that Mary has acquired both the alleles for sickle cell anemia from her parents, and thus, is demonstrating both unusual and normal form of hemoglobin. Sickle cell is a condition that does not demonstrate the phenomenon of complete dominance, as it is a codominant trait.  

A phenomenon in which the features of both the alleles are expressed in the phenotype is termed as codominance. Hence, Mary is demonstrating a codominance pattern.

This should be an example of genetic drift.

The brown spotted deer would spread their genes more than the white spotted ones which would eventually lead to them completely overpowering genetically the white deer in future generations.

During which process is ethanol produced?
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Alcohol fermentation

Explanation:

When oxygen availability is low, the cell can't perform aerobic respiration to breakdown glucose. Instead, anaerobic respiration must be performed. This occurs in cells which consume large amounts of energy, such as muscle cells. Anaerobic respiration produces much less energy than aerobic respiration

One type of anaerobic respiration formed by yeast is called alcohol fermentation (also called ethanol fermentation). This begins with glycolysis, where one molecule of glucose is broke down into 2 molecules of pyruvate. The energy from this reaction generates 2 molecules of ATP, and converts NAD+ to NADH.

Then, the two molecules of pyruvate are further broke down into 2 acetaldehydes (releasing two molecules of carbon dioxide as a by-product). These two molecules of acetaldehyde are then converted into tw molecules of ethanol, using the H ions from NADH, converting it back to NAD+. See the attached picture

This process is taken advantage of to brew beer and wine.
