It takes 100,000 years for a plate to move about 2 kilometers. What is the rate of motion in centimeters per year

1 answer:

8 0

I'm not 100% sure that I'm right here but I tried

100,000 years = 2 km = 200,000 cm
50,000 years = 1 km = 100,000 cm
100,000 years / 200,000 cm = 0.5 cm per year

I feel like I may have done something wrong here but 0.5 cm multiplied by 100,000 gives you 50,000 years and multiplied by 200,000 gives you 100,000 years.

Cross a mother who carries the hemophilia gene but does not express it, With a father with hemophilia

alisha [4.7K]

Answer: The cross will produce 4 offsprings with the following genotypes:

XhXh, XhX, XhY and XY.

Explanation: Hemophilia is an X-linked disease. A woman who carries the hemophilia gene but doesn't not express it is heterozygous, therefore she has a genotype of XhX, and a man who has hemophilia has a genotype of XhY. A cross between them will produce one female and one male who are hemophilic (XhXh and XhY), one female who is a carrier (XhX) and one normal male.
