I'd say your answer would be a 50%-50% chance. So it would be false.

Answer:

100% or 50%

25%

False

Explanation:

From the pedigree, the father of the female circled in pink is affected while the mother is heterozygous for the disorder. If the allele for the disorder is represented by a, then:

X^aY   x   X^AX^a  = X^AX^a, X^aX^a, X^AY and X^aY

It thus means that the female circled in pink is either heterozygous or affected for the disorder with a 50/50 chance in each case. The probability that she is heterozygous or affected for the disorder is therefore 100% or 1.

Now, if the female circled in pink marries an affected male:

X^aY   x   X^AX^a = X^AX^a, X^aX^a, X^AY and X^aY (if the female circled in pink is heterozygous for the disorder)

X^aY   x   X^aX^a =  X^aX^a, X^aX^a, X^aY and X^aY (if the female circled in pink is affected for the disorder)

<em>The probability that their female child will be affected depends on the genotype of the the female circled in pink. If she is heterozygous, the probability would be </em><em>50% </em><em> while it would be </em><em>100% </em><em>if she is affected by the disorder as shown in the two crosses above.</em>

<em>The chance that the child would be a carrier is </em><em>the chance that the female circled in pink is be heterozygous</em><em> and </em><em>the child </em>being an actual carrier:

<em> 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4 or</em><em> 25%</em>

The child can never be a standard. The answer is false

The hormone found only in pregnant women that, when detected, confirms pregnancy is
VMariaS [17]
<span>Human chorionic gonadotropin hormone (hCG)

This hormone is produced by a woman only during pregnancy and is responsible for "pregnancy symptoms," such as vomiting and nausea.

It is primarily produced by the placenta shortly after the dividing fertilized egg cell (embryo) attaches or implants itself into the uterine lining (endometrium). This occurs a few days after the woman has conceived.

ira [324]

Answer:

the chemical equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Explanation:

reactents-Photosynthesis requires sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water as starting reactants (Figure 5.5). After the process is complete, photosynthesis releases oxygen and produces carbohydrate molecules, most commonly glucose. These sugar molecules contain the energy that living things need to survive.
