I think elevation impacts the temperature at which water boils because...
As the altitude increases the pressure in the atmosphere decreases. This means that when the atmospheric pressure is lower, your water will reach it's boiling point faster. (AKA: at a lower temperature.)
Question in English:
A female carries a recessive lethal gene (l) on one of her X chromosomes, and a normal dominant allele (L) on the other. What is the sex ratio to be expected in this woman's dependency if she marries a normal man?
Answer:
2/3 females
1/3 males
Explanation:
Females have two X chromosomes (XX) and males have an X and a Y chromosome (XY).
The genotype of the female is XLXl. The genotype of the male is XLY, since he is normal.
The possible genotypes are:
<u> XL Xl</u>
<u>XL</u> <em>XLXL XLXl</em>
<u>Y</u> <em>XLY </em><em>XlY</em>
<em />
All female offspring will be normal as they will always have one normal copy of the X chromosome from their father.
50% of the male offspring will be normal, but 50% will inherit the lethal gene from their mother.
Because the allele is lethal, that means XlY males will not be born.
That means 2/3 of the children will be females, and 1/3 will be males.

Answer:
The correct answer is option D) six dominant and two recessive.
Explanation:
The most common genetic inheritance pattern involves cross between heterozygous recessive parents which means it has one allele of each character in every parent (suppose Tt).
Cross between these parents provide these offspring; TT, Tt, Tt, and tt which exhibit 3:1 ration which can also be mention as 6:2 which means 6 out of the 8 has dominant (homozygous or heterozygous) and 2 out of 8 offsprings are recessive alleles.
Thus, the correct answer is option D) six dominant and two recessive.
