Hemophilia is considered a sex-linked recessive disorder which means the disease does not occur if only one gene in a pair is abnormal.
Inheritance pattern of the offspring of a father who has hemophilia and a mother who does not have hemophilia and is not a carrier:
- all sons will be born normal
- all daughters will be carriers
Inheritance pattern of the offspring of a father who has hemophilia and a mother who is a carrier:
- 25% chance of having a hemophiliac son
- 25% chance of having a son with no hemophilia
- 25% chance of having a daughter who is a carrier
- 25% chance of having a hemophiliac daughter
It is an essential element for plant life, but when there is too much of it in water, it can speed up eutrophication (a reduction in dissolved oxygen in water bodies caused by an increase of mineral and organic nutrients) of rivers and lakes. Soil erosion is a major contributor of phosphorus to streams.
I believe it is behavioural isolation. When there are changes within a certain species, e.g. new birdcalls are formed in certain individuals in a species, "traditional" birds may not like such mating calls and only choose to mate with the more common birdcalls from majority of the birds. There are also some birds that may like the new birdcalls, and choose to mate with birds with those birdcalls. They become genetically isolated as they continue such behavior. Eventually, through genetic drift and other mutations, different species form from a single specie.
Hope this helps! :)
The answer is D. it weather more slowly because it is less prone to be carried away by nature. <span />
