Answer:
The skin disease suggests that the father contributed with the extra X chromosome. It means, the nondisjunction ocurred during the sperm formation, giving as a product of meiosis II probably two normal sperm, one with 22 chromosomes and one with 24 chromosomes (the extra X).

Answer:
A
Explanation:
Its a consumer because it eats plants
Biomass pyramids show the amount of organic material at each trophic level; thus, they are the best type of ecological pyramid to use in order to model the flow of matter through an ecosystem. A numbers pyramid would not as accurately display this kind of information because a larger producer, such as a tree, which contains a great deal of matter, would be able to feed hundreds or thousands of small first-level consumers such as wood-eating insects.

Explanation:
Fertilization, pictured in Figure 24.23a is the process in which gametes (an egg and sperm) fuse to form a zygote. The egg and sperm each contain one set of chromosomes. To ensure that the offspring has only one complete diploid set of chromosomes, only one sperm must fuse with one egg. In mammals, the egg is protected by a layer of extracellular matrix consisting mainly of glycoproteins called the zona pellucida. When a sperm binds to the zona pellucida, a series of biochemical events, called the acrosomal reactions, take place. In placental mammals, the acrosome contains digestive enzymes that initiate the degradation of the glycoprotein matrix protecting the egg and allowing the sperm plasma membrane to fuse with the egg plasma membrane, as illustrated in Figure 24.23b. The fusion of these two membranes creates an opening through which the sperm nucleus is transferred into the ovum. The nuclear membranes of the egg and sperm break down and the two haploid genomes condense to form a diploid genome.
I believe the correct answer among the choices presented above is the last option. It is in the Sahara desert that most-likely there is physical water scarcity. This is because it is a desert and it is a characteristic of a desert to have very small or no amount of water. Also, the climate their is very hot.
