olor blind. all joe's other grandparents have normal color vision. joe has three sisters—patty, betsy, and lora—all with normal color vision. joe's oldest sister, patty, is married to a man with normal color vision; they have two children, a 9-year-old color-blind boy and a 4-year-old girl with normal color vision. what is the most likely mode of inheritance for color blindness in this family? autosomal recessive x-linked recessive autosomal dominant x-linked dominant y-linked

The answer is x-linked recessive. It is apparent that the color blindness affects the males hence it's caused by a sex-linked recessive gene. Males have XY homologous chromosomes. The X sister chromosome has more genes than the Y sister chromosome, hence most males are hemizygous for sex linked genes. This means that even recessive genes on the X chromosome are likely to be expressed in males.

Dafna11 [192]

Dominance involves one allele masking another at the same locus whereas epistasis involves one locus masking a different locus.

Explanation:

Epistasis is a type of gene interaction in which one gene masks or modifies the expression of another gene at a distinct locus.

Dominance refers to the gene interaction in which one allele of a given gene masks the expression of another alllele of same gene.

The comparison of dominance and epistasis give the following  information:

  • Dominance  involves  allelic suppression while epistasis involves non-allelic suppression.
  • Dominance involves a single pair of alleles while epistasis involves two pairs of allele.
  • In dominance, the expression of recessive allele is suppressed while in epistasis, either recessive or dominant  non allele is suppressed.
  • The effect of dominance is due to the dominant allele while epistasis may be due to dominant or recessive allele.

Temperature and kinetic energy are ___________ proportional.
Natali5045456 [20]

Directly

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy of a gas particle is directly proportional to the temperature. An increase in temperature increases the speed in which the gas molecules move. All gases at a given temperature have the same average kinetic energy.

Define oceanic-oceanic plate boundary and oceanic-continental plate boundary.
FrozenT [24]

Answer: Convergent Boundary

Explanation:

A convergent boundary is an area on Earth where two or more lithospheric plates collide. One plate eventually slides beneath the other causing a process known as subduction. ... Convergent boundaries occur between oceanic-oceanic lithosphere, oceanic-continental lithosphere, and continental-continental lithosphere.
