Why is freckles not X linked dominant trait
forsale [732]

Answer:

The presence of freckles in a individual, or predisposition to have them, is a trait that is inherited with an autosomal dominant pattern, and is not related to sex-linked inheritance.

Explanation:

Freckles are accumulations of melanin in the skin, which form small reddish or light brown spots, predominantly in white-skinned people.

<u> The melanocortin receptor gene</u> undergoes a change that gives rise to a variant - which is phenotypically expressed in the presence of freckles - whose inheritance has been determined to be autosomal dominant.

<u>Under no circumstances is the transmission of the gene that determines the presence of freckles linked to sex</u>, because is an autosomal trait, as is hair, eye or skin color.

Answer and Explanation:

An acid has a pH that is less than 7.  A base has a pH that is greater than 7.  Something that has a pH of 7 is neutral, but since it doesn't seem that the question is asking about neutral, you can ignore that for this problem.

Situation 1:   Base

Situation 2:  Acid

Situation 3:  Acid

Situation 4:  Base

Situation 5:  Acid

Situation 6:  Base

A.  Water directly out of the tap has a pH of 7.2.  When you add carbon dioxide (blow into the water), you get a pH of 5.1.  This means that the addition of carbon dioxide makes water more acidic.

B.  The most basic solution will have the highest pH.  This means that it will be water with bleach added to it.

C.  The most acidic solution will have the lowest pH.  This means that it will be water with instant coffee.

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

tundra, taiga, temperate grassland, rainforest

Explanation:

Tundra is known to be the coldest of all the biomes due to the high latitudes in which these areas are found. In this biome, the growth of the trees is limited by the low temperatures and the growing season is restricted to the summer season. The taiga is a type of biome composed of forest found in the subarctic areas, it is for that reason that taiga regions are also called boreal forests. Temperate grasslands are areas where grasses are dominant with very variable temperatures depending on the season (i.e. summer to winter seasons). In this biome, trees are relatively uncommon. Finally, the rainforest is the most diverse tree-rich biome where the high temperature and humidity conditions are optimal for life.
