The answer is <span>b. all of her sons will inherit the allele for hemophilia.</span>

Hemophilia is X-linked recessive disorder. It is known that <span>there are two X chromosomes (one from a mother and one from a father) in females and one X chromosome (from the mother) and one Y chromosomes (from the father) in males. In females, X-linked recessive disorder has the same pattern of inheritance as an autosomal recessive disorder.
So, if xh is recessive and xH is dominant allele, a mother which has xhxh genotype has the condition (so, c is not the right answer). Further, if a father has no condition, thus his genotype is xHy, their daughters will be carriers but without the condition (so, the choice a could be right only if we know that the father has hemophilia too (xhy). Therefore, since the mother (xhxh) will give her x chromosome to her sons, they will all inherit the allele for hemophilia, and choice b. is the right answer.</span>

Since each myofibril is attached at either end of the muscle fiber, when sarcomeres shorten, the muscle fiber
zmey [24]

Answer:

B. Shortens

Explanation:

Myofibrils are components of the animal skeletal muscles that are made up of sacromeres. They perform the muscular contraction and relaxation via the sliding filament model.

To produce motion, A cross-bridge forms between actin and the myosin heads triggering shortening of the sacromere. This shortening of the sacromere results in the contraction of the muscle fibers, which the net effect can be seen to be a shortening of the fibers

Correct answer is B!

--------------------------------

If you see meaning of "Unconditioned stimulus", you will see the right answer, firstly what does "Unconditioned Stimulus" means, it means any stimulus that naturally evokes a specific response; see also conditioning. If I would go with choices I would choose correct answer B.

A man who is heterozygous for tongue rolling and has a normal vision and a woman who cannot roll her tongue and is heterozygous
Montano1993 [528]
The answer is 3/8

Let T be a dominant allele for tongue rolling and let t be a recessive allele.
Tongue-rolling is a dominant trait. That means that an individual with at least one dominant allele will have the trait:
TT - dominant homozygous individuals able to roll tongue
Tt - heterozygous individuals able to roll tongue
tt - recessive homozygous individuals able to roll tongue
A heterozygous man (Tt) and recessive homozygous female (tt) will have 2 of 4 children that are able to roll tongue (Tt). Take a look at the attached image: 2 of 4 children (marked yellow on the image) are able to roll tongue (Tt) and 2 of for children are not (tt).
The probability that a child will be able to roll his/her tongue is 2/4 = <span>1/2

</span>Now, let's see what happens with color blindness as an X-linked recessive trait. Let X_V be a dominant allele and X_v be a recessive allele. The genotypes will be as following:
X_VX_V - a female with normal vision
X_VX_v - a heterozygous female with normal vision
X_vX_v - a female with colorblindness
X_VY - a male with normal vision
X_vY - a male with colorblindness
Take look at the attached image. A man with normal vision (X_VY) and a woman heterozygous for colorblindness (X_VX_v) will have 3 of 4 children that have normal vision (marked yellow on the image) and 1 of 4 children with color blindness.
The probability that the child has normal vision is 3/4.

Now, we have two probabilities:
The probability that a child will be able to roll his/her tongue is 1/2.
The probability that the child has normal vision is 3/4.
Since we want both of these traits to occur together, we will just multiply their possibilities:
1/2 * 3/4 = 3/8
