Answer:
- If individual III-1 marries an unaffected, non-carrier female, none of their children will have DMD
Explanation:
From the options, the only correct statements is that <em>If individual III-1 marries an unaffected, non-carrier female, none of their children will have DMD</em>
<u>DMD is an X-linked recessive trait, meaning that a male individual is either affected or unaffected (can never be a carrier). III-1 is unaffected and if he marries an unaffected, non-carrier female, it means that none of their children will have DMD.</u>
All the children of II-4 and II-5 will always come out with DMD because both parents are affected.
Individuals I-1 and II-1 are males. A male can never be a carrier in for X-linked traits. He is either affected or unaffected and as shown by the pedigree, both males are unaffected (unshaded).
Answer:
Deforestation negatively impacts the <u>carbon cycle</u> as <u>trees</u> play an important role in <u>balancing the amount of carbon in the atmosphere</u>.
Explanation:
Deforestation is one of the most damaging activities to the environment due to different reasons but mainly because it releases important amounts of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere due to the logging and burning of forests and also leads to the reduction of fauna populations because of habitat destruction.
In this case, cutting white and red pines and then setting a pine acreage on fire disrupts the carbon cycle because:
a) [As stated above] <u>Trees play an important role in balancing the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere</u><u> as there is less photosynthesis carried out by plants - important part of the carbon cycle.</u>
b) <u>When </u><u>trees (wood) are burned, the carbon that was formerly stored is released into the atmosphere as CO2,</u> leading to another disruption in the carbon cycle.
