Sex-linked traits show up in males more often because they only have one X chromosome (males are XY) and females have 2 (XX)
No daughters will actually have hemophilia, but they could be a carrier
There is a 50% chance that if they have a son he will have hemophilia
It is important because we need to learn the environment, what is around us.
Atherosclerosis
Explanation:
Correct order of the sequence of events that leads to atherosclerosis is:
c, d, b, a
Development of atherosclerosis is caused by a high concentration of LDL‐cholesterol in the blood, and lowering the level of LDL‐cholesterol reverses atherosclerosis thus preventing cardiovascular disease
Cholesterol is the key component of arterial plaques which gave rise to the cholesterol hypothesis for the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis
Population studies have shown that elevated levels of both LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B (apoB) 100, which is the main structural protein of LDL, are directly associated with risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular events
Answer:
Predictive patterns seen during the scientific experiment.
Explanation:
A conclusion results from an observed pattern from an experimented results.
This predictive pattern is taken for further investigation on different conditions before a law is proposed.
Cross pollination is the transfer of pollen of different species to stigma of different species of plants.
Cross pollination results in healthy, viable and diverse plants.
Mendel observed that traits could either be dominant or recessive.
Blended traits or incomplete dominance is the condition in which dominant allele could not produce its trait alone instead blending with recessive allele takes place giving new phenotype to progeny.
Explanation:
In cross pollination pollen transfer takes place from anthers to stigma. In Mendelian genetics the anthers of the plant was removed because it has both male and female parts on same plant so that self pollination does not take place.
The importance of cross pollination is that it creates diversity in the plant species since the traits having different alleles are combined to form the progeny plant. The offspring are healthier and high quality seeds are found.
Mendel observed that traits are either dominant or recessive in general. It was observed that when homozygous parents were crossed, the progeny in F1 generation always had dominant trait. The recessive trait only appeared when F1 generation offspring were self pollinate.
Blended traits or incomplete dominance appear when alleles get blended and exhibit the traits in phenotype. The phenotype appeared will not be matching with either parents.
The example is a white coloured flower is crossed with red colour flower the resultant colour of the flower is pink. It shows that dominant allele red is not completely dominant and gets blended with white colour.
