Answer:

<em>Both the parents are carriers of sickle cell anaemia.</em> A carrier can be described as a person who carries a diseased causing allele but the allele is not functional in the body of the person due to the dominant allele suppressing its activity. Such kind of people might produce children actually having the disease.

In the above scenario, <em>there is a 25% chance that the children born will be normal. </em>

<em>There is a 50 percent chance that the children born will be carriers, like the parents.</em>

<em>There is a 25% chance that the child born from these parents might have sickle cell anaemia.</em>

A gymnosperm is classified as a:________
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Gymnosperms generally refer to a group of terrestrial, seed-producing vascular plants whose means of reproduction is an exposed ovule known as a cone.

There are 6 divisions within the gymnosperms, including cycads, ginkgos, and pinus (conifers). Gymnosperms are generally non-flowering and produce needle-like leaves. Their species are usually woody or perennial shrubs/herbs

This is <u>unlike the angiosperms</u> that are usually classified into 2, including the eudicots and the monocots. The division is based on the number of cotyledons or seed leaves carried by the plants in the group during germination.

<em>The correction option here would, therefore, be C. </em>

nasty-shy [4]

Answer: The percentage of serine in the hypothetical polypetide is 16%.

Explanation: Given the proportions of uracil and cytosine nucleotides 4/5 U and 1/5 C. According to probabilities, specifically permutation. We can multiply the proportions to get the probabilities of obtaining the codons. In this case for UC equivalent to serine, would be 4/5 * 1/5= 4/25 this is the same as 16% .
