Human ABO blood type is controlled by the I locus and has three possible alleles. The alleles which code for type A blood (IA) a

nd type B blood (IB) are codominant, while the allele for type O blood (i) is recessive. In a cross between a person with a genotype of IAi and a person with genotype IAIB, what is the probability of seeing three offspring with type A blood?

Oxana [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

1/8 (12.5 %)

Explanation:

Cross: IAi X  IAIB

F1: 1/4 IAIA 1/4 IAIB 1/4 IAi 1/4 IBi

Phenotypes:

- IAIA and IAi >> type A blood

- IBi >> type B blood

- IAIB >> type AB blood

Phenotypic frequency type A blood: 1/2  (i.e., 1/4 IAIA +  1/4 IAi) >>

Probability to have 3 offspring with type A blood: 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8

The human ABO blood group is a system consisting of there different alleles: A, B, and O. This system is used in genetics as an example of codominance because both A and B alleles are expressed in heterozygous individuals (i.e., IAIB), whereas only the allele A is expressed in individuals that have A and O alleles (since O allele is recessive to the A and B alleles).

Besides respiration, what other ways is carbon released into the atmosphere?
Veronika [31]
Carbon cycle, one of the most important elements that make up the structure of living things in an ecosystem carbon. Carbon is found in the structure of all organic compounds in living things. 
Earth is important warehouses;
Atmospheric CO2In the waters of CO2 and HCO3-Land, usually coal, is the structure of the oil and limestone.<span>Photosynthesis by plants using airborne CO2 and O2 is converted to organic compounds. By participating in CO2 carbon all live in the structure of the building is used as a raw organic food energy and structure. In respiratory events again returned to the atmosphere as CO2. If a portion of the carbon is deposited on the ground layer mineral or dead plants and animals through the soil into the organic waste. Here are separated by saprophytes live or coal goes back into the atmosphere through the use of fossil fuels such as oil. However, excessive use of fossil fuels in the atmosphere the CO2 greenhouse effect climate change will bring about in the world, raises a few degrees increase and the consequent danger of melting glaciers at the poles of the temperature.</span><span />

How might biodiversity help an ecosystem recover from volcanic eruption?
kodGreya [7K]

ANSWER:

After the volcanic eruption,lava cools down,vegetation reappears and microscopic plants grow,then the macroscopic plants and animals come at that place,then gradually the whole system builds and ecosystem recovers.

EXPLANATION:

Biodiversity means diverse population of plants and animals. After the volcanic eruption,both plants and animals donot exist because of high temperature and not suitable environment. With the passage of the time, the lava cools down and vegetation stars reappearing. First of all lichens and microscopic plants and after that macroscopic plants and animals come at that place.Thus suitable conditions reappear and gradually the whole ecosystem recovers.
