Answer:
•The gene responsible for the albinism is sex-linked
•The gene responsible for the albinism is recessive
• The pedigree is contained in the attached file
Explanation:
The gene responsible for the trait of albinism is said to be sex-linked because all those that were mentioned with the expression of albinism were females
The gene responsible for the trait of albinism is also said to be recessive because it was found to be rarely expressed and this goes in line with the definition of a recessive gene, which says; a recessive gene is the gene that remains unexpressed ( phenotypically) in the presence of it counterpart ( the dominant gene) in an allelic pair.
a crystal has a regularly repeating arrangement of atoms
Answer:
See the explanation
Explanation:
Answer 1.
As given that in F1 all are short and white then it can be said according to Mendel's law that short and white are dominant over tall and purple.
Let S for short s for tall and W for white and w for purple allele.
So the genotype of short purple will be Ssww or SSww. So In first case Ssww self crossed then resultant offsprings will be,
................ Sw .................... sw
Sw ........ SSww ............. Ssww
sw ........ Ssww .............. ssww (tall and purple)
So from this 1/4 will be tall and purple while 3/4 will be short and purple.
In second case SSww only short purple progeny will appear.
Answer 2.
2. a) The female progeny will not show any trait because there are two X chromosome in females , so female offspring can be carrier but not show any trait in case of X- linked trait.
2. b) Half of male offsprings show trait because X is inherited from mother. So the chance of having X-linked recessive allele is 1/2.
2. c) The chance of having X linked affect allele in daughter is 1/2. So the chance of inheriting that X to son will be 1/2 so in total there is chance of 1/4 that son will be affected.
2. d) the chance of first child show this trait will be 1/4 in case of male offspring while 0 in case of female offspring.

Buddhism was the first of the great missionary faiths to take advantage of the mobility provided by the Silk Road to extend its reach far beyond its native ground. From its origins in north eastern India, Buddhism had already spread into the lands that are now Pakistan and Afghanistan by the 1st century BCE.
DNA ligase is the enzyme that repair irregularities and breaks in the back bone of double stranded DNA. The enzyme function by sealing the repair in the DNA, it seals recombination fragments and it connects okazaki fragments during replication of DNA.
If a mutation reduce the amount of ligase, all the functions of the ligase enzyme listed above will be affected negatively.
