Answer:

Fault

Explanation:

A break or crack in earth's lithosphere along with rocks move. Earth is made up of 4 basic layers a crust,mantle,outer core,inner core and lithosphere.  A solid crust and hard layers of mantle  make up a region name the lithosphere. The lithosphere is made up of pieces of tectonic plates. These plates are constantly changing and move towards the mantle. Non-stop movement of tectonic plates causes stress on the earth's outermost layer i.e,the crust. When these stresses extends it leads to cause cracks called faults.

Luba_88 [7]

Answer: e

Explanation:

I think it is e because if the father is normal than his X is healthy and so all his daughters who will get his X will be healthy as well because the illness is recessive. But the sons are going to take their mother X that is linked with this gene and they wont get their father’s X , which would have kept them normal.

Sickle-cell trait is caused by a single defective allele, but sickle-cell disease only occurs in individuals that are homozygous
Pavel [41]

Answer:

6,25%

Explanation:

Considering that the couple has a trait of sickle cell anemia, we know that both are heterozygous for the disease (Aa) and therefore can have children with the following genotypes:

Parents: Aa X Aa

Children: AA(A x A), Aa(A x a), Aa (a x A) and aa(a x a)

Knowing that sickle cell anemia only occurs in homozygous individuals, the probability for children to have the disease according to each crossing is:

A x A = 1/4 = 25%

A x a = 1/4 = 25%

a x A = 1/4 = 25%

a x a = 1/4 = 25%

The probability of forming each homozygous child (aa) is 1/4 or 25%. Since they are two children, the probability of both having sickle cell anemia is calculated by multiplying the probability of each, so:

1/4 × 1/4 = 1/16 = 0.0625 = 6.25%

It is concluded that the probability of a heterozygous couple for sickle cell anemia to have two children with the disease is 6.25%.
