Decaying uranium atoms in Earth’s crust result in _____.

1 answer:

5 0

Decaying uranium atoms in the earth's crust result in Radon gas. Radon gas cannot be synthetically or commercially produced. It is produced as the result of the natural breakdown of uranium i.e. decaying uranium atoms. Radon gas is a naturally occurring radioactive gas. People are exposed to Radon gas via the inhalation and ingestion of the gas. Because it is found in the ground, water or building materials, Radon gas can enter work buildings as well as private dwellings.

katovenus [111]

Answer:

a: 1/4

b: 1/2

c: 1/4

d: 0

Explanation:

Since the wife had a color-blind father (X^cY), she should be a carrier for the disease. Her genotype would be "X^cX". Fathers do not transmit the X-linked disorders to their sons, so the genotype of the husband is "XY".

a. The probability that the couple's first child will be a normal son: 1/4

b. The probability that the couple's first child will be a normal daughter: 1/2

c. The probability that the couple's first child will be a color-blind son: 1/4

You are studying a disorder that is based on the genetic composition at three loci. Assume that a dominant allele at any locus a

kramer

Answer:

28 units

Explanation:

This disorder follows quantitative inheritance. It is controlled by three genes which do not show the usual dominant-recessive relationship . The six alleles individually contribute to the effect which add up to produce the cumulative phenotype. Dominant allele contributes 6 units of risk whereas recessive allele contributes 2 units of risk.

Individual with genotype AABbCc has four dominant alleles (AABC) and two recessive alleles (bc). So their total risk units =

(6*4) + (2*2) = 24 + 4

= 28 units
