I believe the answer would be A) the fetus does not have fully developed lungs. When a baby is born at 32 weeks or less, there is a higher chance of the baby being born with respiratory problems because of the lungs being premature. Hope this helped!

Meiosis ensures the transmission of traits from one generation to the next. At the same time, it is a key process that introduce
liraira [26]

The question is incorrect so the answer consists of the genetic context of meiosis.

Answer:

Two main types of cell division are mitosis and meiosis. Meiosis is the process of cell cycle division in which the parents cell divides into the four daughter cells. This division is also known as reductional division.

In meiosis, the gametes are haploid where as the parent cell is diploid in nature. The cell undergoes the two meiosis division, the first division is reductional in nature whereas the second meiosis division is same as the mitotic division. This division occurs in the sex cells and results in the formation of haploid gamete hat restores deiploidy during fertilization process. Crossing over during meiosis bring variation in the cells.

If a blue eyed mother with a normal vision has a brown eyed color blind son and a blue eyed colored blind daughter what are the
Rina8888 [55]

Answer: mother: XX^aa, father: X^YAa, son: X^YAa, daughter: X^X^aa.

Explanation:

Color blindness is a genetic disorder that affects the ability to distinguish colors. It is hereditary and is transmitted by an X-linked recessive allele. If a male inherits an X chromosome with the altered allele he will be color blind. In contrast, females, who have two X chromosomes, will only be colorblind if both of their X chromosomes have the altered allele. This is because <u>males have one X chromosome and one Y chromosome, while females have two X chromosomes</u>.  

If the woman has normal vision, that means she cannot have both chromosomes affected. She can only have one affected chromosome (be a carrier) or none at all. Also, if she has blue eyes, which is a recessive trait, then both alleles are recessive. But the eye color is not on the X chromosome. For example, her eye color genotype can only be aa, because if she had at least one dominant allele she would have brown eye color. As for the other trait, she can be XX^, with X^ being an affected (carrier) allele or XX, i.e. both normal. So in summary, her genotype can be XXaa or XX^aa  

If she has a brown-eyed male child who is also colour blind, he has inherited the allele for colour blindness from his mother, since the father does not pass on an X chromosome to the male children, only the Y. With this we can now rule out the mother's XXaa genotype since she had to have passed on her affected X^ chromosome. Then the genotype of the mother is XX^aa. And since her mother can only pass on one allele to (recessive) because she does not have allele A, the dominant that determines her brown eye color can only come from the father. So the genotype of this son is X^YAa. The female daughter has color blindness and blue eyes. So she had to inherit the affected X^ chromosome from the mother (which we already know she has) and an affected X^ chromosome from the father, because the daughter needs to inherit both affected X^ chromosomes to develop the disease. And if she also has blue eyes, she had to have inherited a recessive allele from the mother and another from the father. So with this information we can say that the father's genotype can only be X^YAa. Because the father must have both A and A alleles of the same eye color, because he passed the dominant one to the son and the recessive one to the daughter. At last, the genotype of the daughter is X^X^aa.
