Answer:

C. IBIB

D. IBiO

Explanation:

The blood group system comprises of three different kind of alleles, iA, iB, IO. As we know that a person gets two alleles for both traits, one from father and one from mother, and based on that a person gets its blood group. IA and IB are dominant to IO.

So, if a person has genotype IAIO he will have blood group A and if he has genotype IOIB he will have blood group B because A or B are dominant to O.

However, if a person has blood group O it means that he has genotype IOIO.

So, in this diagram we see that Eric has blood type O, which means that his genotype will be IOIO.

The Eric's mother Melissa has blood group B, which means that she can either had genotype IOIB and IBIB respectively.

Similarly, Eric's grandmother Tricia has genotype B which means that she can have genotype both IOIB and IBIB respectively.

Therefore, both C and D are correct options.

Answer:

1aNeon

b. positive charge.

c. As atomic number is equal to no. of protons and no. of electron and atomic number 10 element is Neon.

Positive charge as it have lost one of it's electron.

Atomic number = no. of protons = no. of electron and since electron can be shared loose or gain to develop charge it have loose on electron.

2a. 4 protons

b. 2 electrons

c. In question 2(a) the atomic number of Be is 4 so it would have four protons.

And as for question (b) it is said it have 2 charge which means positive charge would mean that it have lost 2 electrons and is left with 2 electrons which fulfill it's duplet configuration.

Which of the following characteristics do bryophytes share with algae

xxMikexx [17]

The correct answer is letter C.
Bryophytes have biflagellate gametes and cuticle. The cuticle serves as the covering of the soft tissue of the plant which provides protection and prevents damages on the walls of the plants. The biflagellate gametes develop also as a form of protection as well. These plants have an aquatic ancestry because of their dependence on water for reproduction and survival.
