Statement 3 is the best choice
The answer is a hope it helps
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. The circumstances that this condition would manifest would be if the child is a male and its mother has the recessive allele. X-linked recessive inheritance<span> is a mode of </span>inheritance<span> in which a </span>mutation<span> in a </span>gene<span> on the </span>X chromosome<span> causes the phenotype to be expressed in males </span><span>and in females who are homozygous for the gene mutation</span>
I think if the whale population decreased the surface fish populations would decline due to reduced populations of algae. This can be simply explained by the fact that, if the whale population is decreased, it means that the nitrogen rich feces that is supply nutrients to the algae would also decrease and therefore decrease the population of the algae and as a result the population of of the surface fish would also decline.
