Why is XcY color blind, but XcXC not color blind? Can an XcXC female pass the color blind trait to her children?

Biology

Nesterboy [21]3 years ago

Somebody needs at least one XC to not be colorblind. XcY doesn't have XC, so they are colorblind. XcXC has XC, so they are not colorblind. (a colorblind female would need both to be colorblind - XcXc)

And XcXC female can pass colorblindless onto her children. For example, even if the father was a normal male (XCY), the one possible child could be XcY (with Xc from the mother and Y from the father), which doesn't have XC so its colorblind.

Which of the following is true of a population that is evolving by means of natural selection?
Maurinko [17]

Natural selection is the process in which organisms who have the ability to survive more in the environment are favored than the other ones. In this type of evolution, the ones who do not adapt well with the environment gradually die off and the one with the best traits are left standing. Among the choices, choice B reflects this explanation.

How did fossil<br> fuels form, and how<br> are they obtained<br> and used?
Usimov [2.4K]

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are important energy sources for our every day activities.

  Formation of fossil fuels

Fossil fuels forms from the accumulation and burial of organisms in a basin of deposition. Instead of the organisms decaying, they preserve their carbon content. To be worthy of becoming fossil fuels, organisms must be buried in an environment where there is little to no oxygen to fast-track decomposition of the buried organic matter. Increase in temperature and pressure causes the organic matter to transform into fossil fuels.

How are they obtained

First, different fossil fuels have their extraction techniques because they occur in different physical state of matter.

For the solids e.g coal: exploration is carried out first and if a prospect is delineated, mining engineers design the best way to extract the coal from nature. Coal is usually found laid in sedimentary beds in nature. Top layers of sediments can be removed to extract the coal.

For fluids such as crude oil and natural gas, after a prospect is identified, a rig is usually constructed to extract the fluid and gas. The natural pressure allows for the fluids the rise within the drill used in extraction.

How are they used

Coal and gas are used to power electrical generating plants. They are used to heat steams which drives turbines and produce electricity.

Natural gas is used as a domestic fuel for cooking and so also coal.

When crude is processed a lot of product is obtained. Gasoline is used to power most internal combustion engines. Some chemicals useful for manufacturing plastics, drugs e.t.c are also derived from the processed crude.

When a cell containing an endospore (such as Bacillus subtilis) is stained with the Gram's method, the cell is stained but the e
Liula [17]

Answer:

Endospores Staining

Endospores are substances that are formed inside of specific bacterial cells which boost their survival rate in times of harsh conditions.

Gram staining alone is not sufficient to observe the endospores, which seems apparently clear when Gram-stained cells are observed. 

Endospore staining employs two stains to identify endospores from other cell components.

•The Schaeffer-Fulton method employs heat to promote the primary stain (malachite green) into the endospore. Rinsing with water will well wash away the colour from the cell, as the endospore still appears to be green stained. Counterstaining pink with safranin will show the shape and location of endospores, if they are a part of the cell. The green endospores will be seen inside the pink vegetative cells or it will appear distinct from the pink cells in total. If no endospores are seen, only the pink vegetative cells will be observable.

The attached image shows a stained preparation of Bacillus subtilis revealing the endospores as green and its vegetative cells in pink coloration.

Endospore-staining procedures are essential for observing Bacillus and Clostridium, two genera of endospore-forming bacteria, production of bioterrorism agent from B. anthracis (which causes anthrax.
