For an autosomal recessive trait, if a normal male and an affected female have a daughter with the dominant phenotype, what are

the possible genotypes of both parents? If their daughter with the dominant phenotype goes on to have children with a carrier male, what is the probability that they will produce a child that is a female carrier?

Answer:

The possible genotype of the normal male: AA or Aa

The genotype of affected female: "aa"

The probability of having a carrier girl child= 1/4

Explanation:

The given trait is autosomal recessive. Let's assume that the recessive allele "a" is responsible for the trait while the dominant allele "A" gives the dominant phenotype. The genotype of the normal male can be AA or Aa while that of the affected female would be "aa"

Their daughter has dominant phenotype and therefore, would be heterozygous for the trait with "Aa" genotype. A cross between carrier daughter "Aa" and her carrier male "Aa" would give progeny in following ratio= 1/4 AA: 1/2 Aa: 1/4 aa. Therefore, they have 1/2 probability of having a carrier child.

The probability of having a girl child is always 1/2.

So, the total probability of having a carrier girl child would be 1/2 Aa x 1/2 XX = 1/4

How many chromosomes are in a haploid cell?
Inga [223]

First you must know that a diploid cell has double the amount of chromosomes of a haploid cell. A diploid cell has 46 chromosomes. When we divide 46 by 2 you get 23. This means that there are 23 chromosomes in a haploid cell.

Hope this helped!

Modify the existing vector's contents, by erasing the element at index 1 (initially 200), then inserting 100 and 102 in the show
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

Following are the code to this question:

#include <iostream>//defining header file

#include <vector>//defining header file

using namespace std;

void PrintVectors(vector<int> numsList)//defining a method PrintVectors that accept an array

{

   int j;//defining integer variable

   for (j = 0; j < numsList.size(); ++j)//defining for loop for print array value  

   {

       cout << numsList.at(j) << " ";//print array

   }

   cout << endl;

}

int main()//defining main method  

{

   vector<int> numsList;//defining array numsList

   numsList.push_back(101);//use push_back method to insert value in array

   numsList.push_back(200);//use push_back method to insert value in array

   numsList.push_back(103);//use push_back method to insert value in array

   numsList.erase(numsList.begin()+1);//use erase method to remove value from array

   numsList.insert(numsList.begin(), 100);//use insert method to add value in array

   numsList.insert(numsList.begin()+2, 102);//use insert method to add value in array

   PrintVectors(numsList);//use PrintVectors method print array value

   return 0;

}

Output:

100 101 102 103  

Explanation:

In the above-given code, inside the main method an integer array "numList" is defined, that use insert method to insert value and use the erase method to remove value from the array and at the last "PrintVectors" method is called that accepts a "numList" in its parameter. In the "PrintVectors" method, a for loop is declared, that prints the array values.

QUESTION 7
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

The answer is - (B) the amount of food that is typically consumed.

Explanation -

The symptoms of anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa overlap at a large extent. Both are eating disorders in which the individual, affected by any of those, tries to lose weight in unhealthy manner. But there are some key differences between both the disorders.

People suffering with anorexia tend to reduce their food intake to lose weight. It includes extreme dieting and in some cases people stop eating or eat minimal.

People with bulimia continue to eat. Unlike people with anorexia they binge, or overeat large amount of foods. The repetitive cycles of binge-eating lead to self-induced vomiting or starvation which further leads to weight loss.

Whereas excessive exercise is common in both the disorders.
