Answer:
25%
Explanation:
When looking at a pedigree remember that:
- squares are males
- circles are females
- the solid colored figure represents an individual affected by a disease
- the empty figure represents a healthy individual
Let us assign the symbol X⁺ to represent the dominant allele linked to the X-chromosome and expressing healthiness, and X⁻ to represent the recessive allele expressing the dissease.
According to this pedigree
- I1 is a man affected by the disease, YX⁻
- I2 is a healthy woman X⁺X⁻
- we can see that among the progeny (generation II) there are two individuals affected (a boy and a girl) and one healthy girl. This means that the mother I2 is heterozygous for the trait.
So, having their genotypes we can know what are the probabilities of getting a son with DMD
Parentals) YX⁻ x X⁺X⁻
Gametes) Y X⁻ X⁺ X⁻
Punnett square)
X⁺ X⁻
X⁻ X⁺X⁻ X⁻X⁻
Y X⁺Y X⁻Y
F1)
- The probabilities of getting a healthy daughter X⁺X⁻ are 25%
- The probabilities of getting a healthy son X⁺Y are 25%
- The probabilities of getting a daughter with DMD X⁻X⁻ are 25%
- The probabilities of getting a son with DMD X⁻Y are 25%
Human activities have altered various natural environments around the planet. Various lands are now fields where only one farm crop is cultivated, is an example of monoculture farming.
An agricultural method of growing or producing a single plant, crop, or a livestock species, breed, or a variety in a field of the farming system at a time is known as a monoculture. Hence, the correct answer is option D, that is, monoculture.
Ranchers, though, remained steadfastly opposed<span> to </span>reintroducing<span> a species of animal. so the answer is (B)

Explanation:
Phototropism- a response to <u>light stimulus</u> that directs the stem to grow toward the light and roots to grow away from it.
ii. Gravitropism- Stems and leaves grow away from the force of <u>gravity</u> while roots grow toward it.
iii.Thigmotropism - growth in response to <u>touch stimulus.</u> The side of the stem in contact with the object grows slower than the side not in contact. This causes the vine to twist around the object.
