Answer:
(a) 1/2; (b) no
Explanation:
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency (G6PD) is an X-linked recessive disorder and the woman's father was diseased so it means that woman is a carrier of the allele but has normal phenotype. It means that she will have XXᵇ genotype.
In contrast to this, her husband is diseased so his genotype will be XᵇY.
The Punnett square diagram related to the cross is attached.
(a) Proportion of their sons expected to be G6PD is 1/2:
They both may give birth to 4 progeny with genotypes XXᵇ, XᵇXᵇ, XY and XᵇY. It means they both may have 2 sons out of which one with genotype XᵇY will be diseased while the one with genotype XY will be healthy. So the proportion of their sons having G6PD is 1/2 or 50%.
(b) If the husband were G6PD deficient, the answer will not change.
The reason behind this is that this disease is caused by an allele located in X chromosome. But father contributes only Y chromosome to his son not X chromosome. The X chromosome will affect the genotype of his daughter not son that is why answer will not change. It means they will still have 1/2 of their sons diseased.
Answer: d. All the above
Fertilizers can be deterimental to the environment. Excess use of fertilizers will result in eutrophication in the water body. Water body being more enriched with nutrients will result in excessive growth of aquatic plants. This also result in algal bloom in which algae grows on the surface of water body because of this atmospheric oxygen not able to reach the aquatic plants, hence results in oxygen depletion.
The answer is NAD+.
NAD+ is the primary oxidizing agent in the glycolytic pathway. Oxidizing agents gain electrons and thus, they are reduced in a reaction. In the glycolytic pathway, NAD+ server the oxidizing agent. It accepts electrons from the molecules, such as some intermediates of the glycolytic pathway. As the result, it is reduced to NADH which can serve in some reactions as a reducing agent.
Answer:
overpopulation and it because harmful and hard to control and possibly will diminish the number of normal fishes by killing them with their dangerous life threatening spikes
