Answer:

The child must have a father who is colorblind and a mother who is a carrier/ is colorblind.

Explanation:

The genetic code for color blindness is carried upon the x chromosome. This means that a male- who has only one X chromosome- only needs their mother to be a carrier to be colorblind. Women on the other hand, need two to be color blind, as the faulty x chromosome can be weeded out by the other.

Therefore, the father, in order to pass on the colorblindness, must be colorblind himself, whereas the mother only needs to be a carrier (or can be completely color blind herself).

How could genetic drift explain differences in the genotype frequencies among the caucasian and aborigine populations?
Novay_Z [31]

Genetic drift occurs when there is no random mating across a population. This causes a change in allelic frequency due to a random sampling of the population.

As the aboriginal population explored the earth,  a small part of the population became geographically isolated either due to continental drift and climate changes. As the isolated population grew bigger, they established their own gene pool. This resulted a change in genotypic frequencies from that of the aboriginal population.

The appearance of a pebbly texture on the surface of a deep wound indicates what process is taking place?
irakobra [83]
In a deep wound, there might be a few layers of tissue that need to be rebuilt because they were lost. In this rebuilding process this pebbly texture can be seen and it indicates that granulation is taking place (that's the process). Granulation is when small blood vessels and capillaries start to develop vertically to the outside part of the wound, being supported by connective tissue, and surrounded by cells of many other types for different purposes, such as immunitary functions or specialised tissue functions. This tissue growing is characteristic of healing and it presents this granulated/pebbly texture to it.
