An alteration to chromosome structure which only involves one chromosome is called MONOSOMY.
Alterations in chromosomes structures usually leads to mutation. Monosomy refers to the condition of heaving a diploid chromosome complement in which one chromosome lacks its homologous partner.
The answer is A. 0.54.
In a population p+q=1 (we have 2 alleles only).
The question states that 0.21 of the population(21%) have short legs meaning they are q^2.
So q=rad0.21=0.4582.
And p=1-q=0.5417.
Answer:
abrasion
Explanation:its another word for erosion
Answer: Edema
Explanation:
The swelling that is caused as the result of inflammation is known as Edema. Just after an injury takes place the traumatized area becomes red, painful and warm. It also starts to swell.
This swelled area is also known as Edema which is caused due to acute response of acute inflammation.
This response is trigerred by the injured tissues. When the body starts healing then, change in blood flow takes place and swelling is also cured.
But sometimes it is so acute that it restricts the normal blood flow and movement of the affected area.
Answer:
Pleiotropy
Explanation:
Pleiotropy is a condition that occurs when one gene affect several other phenotypic traits that are not related. The autosomal dominant allele of the genetic disease called blue sclera, is pleiotropic. It has the potential of causing also fragile bones and deafness which are entirely unrelated traits. Genetic mutation of a gene is the most likely explainable reason for the connection of these traits together.
