How would the introduction of this predator affect the population ratio of dark green to light-green lizards? A. The proportion of light-green lizards would increase drastically in the following year. B. The ratio would gradually increase every year. C. The ratio would not show any changes in the following year. D. The proportion of dark-green

Answer:

C. The ratio would not show any changes in the following year.

Explanation:

Since the introduced (and only) predator can not differentiate between the tone of the lizards (dark and light), you can assume it will feed from them in an equal proportion, so the ratio between dark green and light green lizards will not be affected.

14. Explain why women, and not men, can be carriers for the disease hemophilia. Why do the sons of
miv72 [106K]

Answer: Women are carriers for the disease hemophilia because hemophilia is an X-linked disease. The recessive allele for the disease is found on the X chromosome.

The sons of carrier women get hemophilia because males have one X chromosome and one Y chromosome. The sons of a carrier woman may inherit the affected X chromosome from their mother, and a Y chromosome from their father. They have only one X chromosome and one it's affected, will result in hemophilia.

Explanation: Women are carriers because in most cases, only one of their two X chromosomes are affected. The two female X chromosome is rarely affected.

Daughters of carrier women will not get the disease because they need two affected X chromosomes to manifest the disease. So even if they inherit one affected X chromosome from their mother, the second X chromosome they will inherit from their father will be normal. Therefore, daughters of carrier women can only be carriers.

2. An adaptive advantage of having a three-chambered heart, as found in amphibians, over the two-chambered heart of fish is that
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

fully oxygenated blood returning to the amphibian heart can undergo additional pumping to reach higher pressures.

Explanation:

Fishes have a two-chambered heart with one atrium and one ventricle. The blood is pumped from the atrium into the ventricle. Ventricle pumps blood into a single circuit of blood vessels. Blood is oxygenated as it passes through capillaries in the gills. As blood circulates through the gill capillaries, it has low blood pressure and therefore, is delivered very slowly to the other organs.  

The amphibian heart has two atria and one ventricle. A sinus venosus collects oxygen-poor blood and pumps it into the right atrium. Oxygenated blood from the lungs passes directly into the left atrium. The left atrium pumps the oxygen-rich blood into the arteries that conduct it to the various tissues of the body. Therefore, a three-chambered heart in reptiles allows the delivery of oxygenated blood with high blood pressure.
