Answer: Ocean crust is continuously formed at mid- ocean ridge. As the plates separates at these ridges and the surrounding magma rises into the upper crust and mantle.

As it moves away from the ridge, the lithosphere seems to be cooler  and denser and the sediments built on the top. The youngest layer is created at the oceanic ridge and the older ones get away with time.

Example of ocean crust is Gakkel ridge under atlantic ocean

It is formed at Divergent boundaries, two tectonic plates diverge from one another. New oceanic crust is being formed by hot molten rock slowly cooling and solidifying. The crust is very thin.

In humans, blue eyes are inherited as a recessive autosomal trait and color blindness is an X-linked recessive trait. A woman wi
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

A) One-half of their daughters will have normal color vision and brown eyes; 1/2 of their daughters will have normal color vision and blue eyes.

Explanation:

<u>The genotypes and phenotypes are</u>:

  • BB or Bb= brown eyes
  • bb= blue eyes
  • XᴰXᴰ, XᴰXᵈ (women) or XᴰY (men)= normal vision
  • XᵈXᵈ (women) or XᵈY (men) = color blind

A woman has blue eyes (bb) and normal color vision (she has an Xᴰ chromosome) but her father was color-blind, so the other X chromosome she has carries the recessive d allele. She has the genotype bb XᴰXᵈ.

The man has normal color vision (he is XᴰY) and has brown eyes, but his mother had blue eyes so he must have inherited a b allele from her and is therefore heterozygous Bb. His genotype is BbXᴰY.

The blue/brown eyes gene is autosomal and independent from the sex-linked color blindness gene.

The woman can produce the gametes b Xᴰ and b Xᵈ.

The man can produce the gametes B Xᴰ, b Xᴰ, B Y and bY.

<u />

<u>The female daughters can have the following genotypes and phenotypes:</u>

  • Bb XᴰXᴰ brown eyes, normal color vision
  • Bb XᴰXᵈ brown eyes, normal color vision
  • bb Xᴰ Xᴰ blue eyes, normal color vision
  • bb Xᴰ Xᵈ blue eyes, normal color vision
