Answer:

Hemophilia is a sex-linked recessive disorder in which a person's blood do not clots and he can bleed to death even after minor injuries because blood will keep running due to a small cut.

It is a recessive trait which means that even if one normal gene is present along with Hemophiliac gene, the person will not have the disease and he will be the carrier.

Question: What will be their children’s possible phenotypes?

If a woman who is a carrier for hemophilia marries a hemophiliac man, their genotypes can be denotes as :

Here H, indicate normal gene and small h indicate defected (hemophilia) gene.

Parents:                      XHXh                   X           XhY

Offspring:                   XHXh : XHY:  XhXh:  XhY

Phenotype of offspring:

XHXh:  The child will be daughter and normal (25 % chances)

XHY:     The child will be son and normal (25 % chances)

XhXh:   The child will be girl and Hemophiliac (25 % chances)

XhY:      The child will be son and Hemophiliac (25 % chances)

Hope it helps!

What would happen to the oceans if continental and oceanic crust had the same density?
levacccp [35]

Answer:

The oceanic crust is formed by partial melting of the mantle at mid-ocean ridges. The continental crust is formed even more cycles of partial melting over time, resulting less dense rocks.

Explanation:

The mantle, oceanic crust, and continental crust all have different compositions due to a process called partial melting.

This is where you start to melt a rock, but don´t melt it all the way.

When you partially melt a rock, certain chemical elements tend to stay in the solid rock while others tend to go into the melted part.

As a result, the rock that forms from that melt is less dense than the original rock.

If you then partially melt that rock, you get a rock that is even lighter.

Which of the following statements about archaea are true cowan?A) They are prokaryotes.B) They lack peptidoglycan in their cell
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

All the options are true except option D.

Explanation:

Archaea are a group of prokaryotic organisms i.e. they lack a membrane bound nucleus. They are one of the the three domains of life (the other two being bacteria and eukarya). Archeans possess a cell wall like bacteria but it is not composed of peptidoglycan, like bacteria cell wall.

Archeans are generally known to be found in very severe environmental conditions, hence, they are referred to as extremophiles e.g Some are thermoacidophiles i.e. thrive in very hot and acidic environment while others are extreme halophiles i.e. thrive in salty regions. Archeans known as methanogens produce methane gas as a product of metabolism from carbon dioxide and hydrogen.

However, the domain archeae was only found to be in existence recently after the domain bacteria, hence, they are not considered to evolve before the domain bacteria.
