Answer:
Release of large numbers of eggs/sperm into the water during reproduction cycles.
Explanation:
Adaptation may be defined as the change in the physical, physiological and chemical changes in the organisms that helps them to survive in their environment.
The organisms living in the rocky intertidal zone shows adaptations as they are more darker in color and has simple body organisation. The algae,crabs and snails live in the intertidal zone. They have small number of offspring that protect them from the predators.
Thus, the answer is release of large numbers of eggs/sperm into the water during reproduction cycles.
Answer:
The man's father genetics for aniridia is XAY because one copy of the altered gene in each cell is sufficient to cause this disorder.
Explanation:
The aniridia allele in females has to be in the XAXA or XAXa form to be expressed but in males, can be expressed when genotype is XAY.
Migraine headaches allele in females has to be in the XMXM or XMXm form to be expressed but in males, can be expressed when genotype is XMY.
A man with normal vision and without migraines (XaY/XmY) had a father who had aniridia (XAY).
The man's father genetics for aniridia is XAY because one copy of the altered gene in each cell is sufficient to cause this disorder.
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Let the disorder be represented by the allele a.
Since the disease is an autosomal recessive one, affected individuals will have the genotype aa and normal individuals will have the genotype Aa or AA.
Since the four adults are carriers, their genotypes would be Aa.
Aa x Aa
Progeny: AA 2Aa aa
Probability of being affected = 1/4
Probability of being a carrier = 1/2
Probability of not being affected = 3/4
(a) The chance that the child second child of Mary and Frank will have alkaptonuria = 1/2
(b) The chance that the third child of Sara and James will be free of the condition = 3/4
(c)
(d) If someone has no family history of the disorder, their genotype would be AA.
AA x aa
4 Aa
<em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history </em>= 0
(e)
(f) <em>The chance that a child with alkaptonuria will have an offspring with alkaptonuria if the child's mate has no family history</em> = 0
Answer:
a. He is missing a control group of mice that did not receive the new antibiotic.
Explanation:
In any experiment especially experiments testing effectiveness of a drug, there should be a control group.
The importance of a control group is to minimize the effects of other variables other than the independent variable hence increasing reliability of the results.
in this case, a group of mice that did not receive the new antibiotic would have served as the control group.
