A karyotype shows that a child has Klinefelter syndrome (47,XXY). If the child is also color-blind (due to a recessive X-linked

allele), despite his parents having normal color vision, in which parent and stage of meiosis did nondisjunction occur?

Answer:

It occurred in the mother and in meiosis II stage

Explanation:

A karyotype shows that a child has Klinefelter syndrome (47,XXY) which involves a male child having an XXY chromosome in which the XX chromosome codes from the mother.

If the child is also color-blind (due to a recessive X-linked allele), despite his parents having normal color vision then the nondisjunction occurred in meiosis II because sister chromatids separate during meiosis II and the non separation is the reason for the Klinefelter syndrome.

Garden plants are eaten by snails, which are eaten by birds, which are eaten by the household cat. What happens to the other mem
Alex17521 [72]

The correct answer is (d) The number of plants and birds increases and the number of snail decreases.

Green plants are eaten by snails, snails by birds, and birds by household cat. If cat is removed from the cycle then the number of birds will increase which will decrease the number of snail in the environment.  As there are large number of birds there will be a great demand of snails as a food for birds. Then there will be a decrease in the number of snails because of over eating of snails. There will be an increase in the number of garden plants because very less number of snails are left that will eat garden plants.

*anatomy & physiology question*
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

32 mm

Explanation:

The field of view is the total area visible through the microscope . The diameter of the field of view can be measured.

There is an inverse relationship between the magnification and the field diameter. As magnifications decreases, the field diameter increases by the same proportion, and as magnifications increases, the field diameter decreases by the same proportion.

The relationship between field diameter and magnification is:

magnification of A * field diameter of A = magnification of B * field diameter of B

120X * 8 mm = 30X * B

B = 120X / 30X * 8 mm

B = 32 mm = 32000 μm

The field diameter of 30X magnification is 32 mm (32000 μm)

How are the testes and ovaries similar
denpristay [2]

Testes and ovaries are similar because hey are the same in that most of the reproductive organs of both sexes develop from similar embryonic tissue, meaning they are homologous. Both systems have gonads (male have testes and female have ovaries) that produce gametes (testes produce sperm and ovaries produce egg or ovum) and sex organs.
