Answer: D) it is a female with two recessive alleles
Explanation:
Since the shape is a circle, we know it is a female. Since the shape is shaded, we know the posses the recessive trait, meaning they must have two of it's alleles.
Answer:
Option B. a health problem due to the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+) being 10X higher than normal in your body is correct answer.
Explanation:
When lungs are not able to remove carbon dioxide produced by blood it results in decrease in pH of blood (blood become more acidic). This condition is called respiratory acidosis. However, body has the ability to balance ionic concentration. (See attached image for more explanation)
The abiotic factor is the amount of oxygen. Abiotic means non-living, and all the other answer choices reference living things.

Answer:
Deletion of a DNA base from a gene affects an organism by changing the sequence of amino acids in a protein.
Explanation:
A DNA fragment forms a gene, with a specific sequence of nitrogenous bases, which determines the synthesis of a specific protein. When a deletion of a base occurs in such a gene, it affects:
- Transcription of the mRNA, which will have the sequence of altered bases.
- During translation, the mRNA codons will encode at least one different amino acid.
- The structure of the synthesized protein, which will be altered by changes in its amino acid sequence.
In summary, the <u>deletion of a base in the DNA</u><u> will affect the </u><u>protein</u><u> to be synthesized by </u><u>changing the amino acid sequence</u><u> of its structure</u>.
The other options are not possible, because the deletion of a base in the DNA of a gene
<em> Does not influence the number of chromosomes that the gametes will have.
</em>
<em> It does not produce long chains in the chromosomes.
</em>
<em> It does not affect the ribose structure of the nucleic acids.</em>
