Since hemophilia is an X-linked recessive disorder, the probability depends on the X alleles.
So, if father has dominant allele (H), the probability that a <span>female child would suffer from hemophilia (genotype: hh) is 0%, no matter of mother's genotype:
 
                    Father              Mother
Parents:       H             x          Hh
Daughter:     HH or Hh

</span>      Father              Mother
Parents:       H             x          HH
<span>Daughter:     HH
</span>
      Father              Mother
Parents:       H             x          hh
<span>Daughter:     Hh or Hh
</span>
But, if the father has recessive allele, the probability that a <span>female child would suffer from hemophilia (genotype: hh) will depend on mother's genotype.
If mother is dominant homozygous, there will be 0% of possibility:
</span>                       Father              Mother
Parents:             h          x          HH
<span>Daughter:     Hh
</span>
If mother is recessive homozygous, the possibility is 100%:
                    Father              Mother
Parents:           h         x         hh
<span>Daughter:     hh
</span>
If mother is heterozygous, the possibility is 50%:
                   Father              Mother
Parents:          h         x         Hh
<span>Daughter:     Hh or hh</span>

How are adaptations related to natural selection?<br><br> Need help:P
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

In evolutionary theory, adaptation is the biological mechanism by which organisms adjust to new environments or to changes in their current environment. The idea of natural selection is that traits that can be passed down allow organisms to adapt to the environment better than other organisms of the same species

  • From experiment, Jill should be able to track the changes in the orientation of flower head throughout the day.
  • This will rightfully support his claims .
