Natalija [7]

Answer:

The DNA of the baby shares the DNA of both father and mother, and hence a cross link between an O type mother (Taylor) and an AB type father (Tyler) will produce children with blood groups A and B. It will be impossible to give birth to a child with blood group O.

if a number cube is tossed once which of these is the most likely outcome one, 3, a number greater than 1, or number less than 3
Naddik [55]
A greater more than 3 because in a cube there are 6 numbers  1,2,3,4,5,6
Then it is not equal to have 1 greater than a tree has four numbers and less than three has 2. So more likely, Greater than three.

If a mother has a blood type AB+- and her father has a blood type B- and she marries a man with O- blood type. What is the perce
Marina CMI [18]
Genetics, blood type gene has two alleles, each allele has genotype A, B or O. The A and B are dominant, and O is recessive. So allele A combined with allele O is type A. Similarly, BO is type B, AA is type A, BB is type B, OO is type O, and AB is typeAB.

If both parents have type A blood, then the alleles could be AA or AO, thus the allele A frequency is 75%, allele O frequency is 25% for both parents. 
So the chance of alleles OO is 25% × 25% = 6.25%, 
alleles AA is 75% × 75% = 56.25%, 
alleles AO is 75% × 25% = 18.75%, 
alleles OA is 25% × 75% = 18.75%.
Since AA, AO and OA are blood type A, and OO is blood type O, thus their child has 6.25% chance to be blood type O and 93.75% chance to be blood type A. 

The +/- is called the rhesus factor, with + being dominant, and - being recessive.
So if both parents are -, the kids are always -, otherwise the kids might be + or -.

Action potentials (nerve impulses) are changes in the membrane potential that, once started, will affect the entire excitable me
stich3 [128]

Answer:

The order of events would be:

4.Threshold stimulus, Na+ channels open.  This is the first event

5.Na+ influx, Depolarization. Second event

2.Na+ channels close, K+ channels open.  This is the third event

1.K+ efflux, Repolarization.  Fourth event

3.Hyperpolarization, K+ channels close

Explanation:

In resting state, the membrane is negative inside, and  K+ concentration is higher than outside.   Na+ concentration is higher outside instead.  

Sodium influx is responsible for membrane depolarization.  It's the event to produce the action potential.  When sodium channels are closing, potassium channels open and K+ go outside until repolarization occurs. But now we have both ions in different sides of the membrane, and this can't be stimulated again to produce other action potential. The membrane will remain refractory to respond to the adequate stimulus until ions migrate to their original sites.  This is Na+ outside, and K+ inside.  This is responsibility of the Na+/ K+ pump, that uses ATP to pump Na+ out, and  K+ in. Once both ions had been relocated in the membrane, this is ready to receive a correct stimulus to produce a new action potential.

Describe how the fossil record could be used by scientists to help explain the evolution of a species. Justify your response in
Virty [35]

Answer:

You could use the fossil record to help explain the evolution of a species by watching how it aged, what it ate, how it breed and where it lived along with a million of other things. It could have lived in the 20 below freezing and then you find that same fossil in the warmest place in the world it shows that the species either adapted or possibly had an offspring that could handle the high temperatures.
