Answer:

To determine the fraction for the inheritance of Red green colorblindness the genotype of their parents must be considered although neither John nor Ann is color blind there is a very high probability that Ann will be a carrier if that is the case the fractions of the daughters of John and Ann that are expected to be carriers of that trait is 50% chance.

Explanation:

A punnet square can be used to determine any possible genotypic combinations in the parents. color  blindness is a recessive X-linked trait in which the patient is not able to distinguish, red or green or blue color. The normal gene and its recessive allele are carried by X chromosome in men, this color blindness appears in the presence of a single recessive gene Whereas in women color blindness occur only when both chromosome carry the gene this shows criss cross inheritance

Answer:

Explanation:

Colour blindness is recessive sex-linked traits, carried by the X chromosome that is manifested as the difficulty of an individual to distinguish different colours properly.

From the question above Ann doesn't have color blindness but her father does, thus there is a possibility that Ann is an heterozygous carrier of color blindness.

Therefore the chances of having a carrier for color blindness in a daughter is 25% or 1/4

So, the answer is 25%

Explanation:

-Pheophytin

P680 the primary donor of Photosystem II becomes excited and transfers an electron to pheophytin. Pheophytin is the initial intermediate electron acceptor and carrier in Photosystem II; it is a chlorophyll-like molecule that lacks a central magnesium ion.

Further Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a chemical pathway that’s integral to producing energy in plants and other primary producers. Energy in the form of molecules of glucose is produced from light, water and carbon dioxide while oxygen is released. This occurs in several complex steps, photosynthesis is a rate limited reaction, depends on several factors including carbon dioxide concentration, ambient temperature and light intensity; the energy is retrieved from photons, I.e. particles of light, and water is used as a reducing agent. This occurs in the thykaloids, where pigment molecules like chlorophyll reside.

The chloroplast is a membrane bound organelle found in plants. It contains several invaginations of a plasma membrane called the thylakoid membrane. This contains chlorophyll pigments, in stacks called granum, while the internal spaces of the organelle are called the lumen. Liquid surrounds the granum, forming the stroma.

During the light reaction:

  • Light is absorbed by pigments in phosystem II (PSII). This energy is transferred among pigments til it gets to the reaction center, and is transferred to P680; this promotes an electron to a higher energy level where it then goes to an acceptor molecule, like Pheophytin .
  • Water supplies the chlorophyll in plant cell with replacement electrons for the ones removed from photosystem II. Additionally, water (H2O) split by light during photolysis into H+ and OH- acts as a source of oxygen along with functioning as a reducing agent.
  • the electron moves down an electron transport chain (to PS I)where it experiences continuous energy loss. This energy fuels the pumping of H+ from the stroma to thykaloid, leading to the formation of a gradient. The H+ move along their gradient and cross through ATP synthase, into the the stroma.
  • ATP synthase converts ADP and Pi to the energy storage molecule ATP.
  • The electron gets to photosystem I where it goes to pigments at P700. It absorbs light energy, the electron is promoted to a higher energy level, and passed to an electron acceptor. This leaves a space for another electron which is then replaced by one from photosystem II.
  • in the ETC, the molecule NADP is reduced to NADPH by providing H+ ions. NADP and NADPH are integral to the Calvin cycle where monosaccharides or sugars like glucose are produced after the modification of several molecules.

What are two differences you see when comparing the four chambers of the heart? Relate these differences to the function of each
DerKrebs [107]
The two differences you see when comparing the four chambers of the heart is that the arteries have a thicker wall and veins have thin walls and that the arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart which means they get more pressure than veins.

almond37 [142]

Answer:

The cell theory developed most quickly due to the invention of the microscope. Robert Hooke was the first scientist who saw cells in cork. After this discovery, a wide numbered of researches were made and cell theory was developed. The basic cell theory explained that how every living thing was made up of cells. After this, a lot of additions have been made in the cell theory and today the cell theory is known to have five basic postulates.
