B)50%


Explaination:

The child receives 23 chromosomes from each parent because the child required 46 chromosomes. Each parent also gives genetic information to the child (DNA). Therefore, if one parent is sickly and the other is not, there is a 50/50 chance that the child could get sick or not.

Describe how each of these 4 processes can affect salinity. Are they increasing or decreasing the salinity?
Charra [1.4K]

Iceberg: The formation of icebergs increases salinity because it is taking liquid water out of the ocean without taking the salt.

Sea Ice: Same as icebergs, this increases salinity because it removes liquid water.

Runoff: This decreases salinity because it is introducing fresh water into the ocean, reducing the salt to water ratio.

Evaporation: This would increase salinity because it is removing liquid water from the ocean, increasing the salt to water ratio.

Hope this helps!
