Interestingly, even though hemophilia in the royal families began in England, they were actually the only one of these four fami

lies to NOT be affected by it. If Alice's daughter Alix had accepted a marriage proposal from George V, this may have changed history greatly. If we were to rewrite history, pairing Alix and George V together, what is the probability any of their offspring would have hemophilia?

Answer:

<h2>Alice's daughter Alix =X X*   </h2><h2>George V= XY </h2><h2>Progeny  are;</h2><h2>XX, XY, X*X, X*Y </h2><h2>50 % males would be  infected </h2><h2>50% male normal</h2><h2>50% female normal, </h2><h2>50 female carrier. </h2>

Explanation:

Hemophilia is an inherited disease and it follows  an X-linked recessive pattern. The genes for hemophilia disease are located on the X chromosome. In males one mutated copy of the chromosome X  is sufficient to cause the condition, because male contain only one gene. Female  contain XX chromosome, so both the chromosome must have mutated for causing this disease.

According to  study of  Queen Victoria (1891-1901) of England, Alice's daughter Alix was X linked carrier and George V was normal male,

so if they got married, their children would be  

parents genotype  X X*   XY

progeny  

XX, XY, X*X, X*Y

50% males would be  infected

50% male normal

50% female normal,

50 female carrier.

2. What structures or abilities are essential to the success of organisms who do not use
aev [14]

Answer:

Ability to perform locomotion with their legs

Explanation:

Plants and animals are two distinct species of organisms. Plants are capable of using photosynthesis to obtain their food due to the unique structures that can capture light energy in their cells (autotrophic). Animals, on the other hand, are heterotrophic i.e. cannot perform photosynthesis and therefore, rely on other organisms for food.

Since animals depends on eating other organisms to obtain food/energy, their possession of LEGS or ability to LOCOMOTE is very instrumental to their success as non-photosynthetic or heterotrophic organisms. This enables them leave one position in search for food and resources

Elina [12.6K]

A. The heartbeat can be heard

Explanation:

After the first trimester, during the fourth month, the heartbeat of the fetus becomes loud enough to be heard with the help of a stethoscope placed on the abdomen of the mother.

How is economics being used to solve environmental issues?
Andrej [43]

Explanation:

The environmental sciences have documented large and worrisome changes in earth systems, from climate change and loss of biodiversity, to changes in hydrological and nutrient cycles and depletion of natural resources. These global environmental changes have potentially large negative consequences for future human well-being, and raise questions about whether global civilization is on a sustainable path or is “consuming too much” by depleting vital natural capital (13). The increased scale of economic activity and the consequent increasing impacts on a finite Earth arises from both major demographic changes—including population growth, shifts in age structure, urbanization, and spatial redistributions through migration and rising per capita income and shifts in consumption patterns, such as increases in meat consumption with rising income (19, 20).

Please help asap, I will give brainliest!!!
sdas [7]

Answer:

Biodiversity is a variation of organisms (plants, animals and bacteria) in the world or a specific habitat. Biodiversity helps to keep an ecosystem healthy because there is more variation of food and different organisms can rely on each other for survival. Also it offers a larger more reliable food chain and if one species is suddenly wiped out, it won't impact the ecosystem as much as it would if the biodiversity was smaller.
