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?

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).

Mr. A.H., age 44, had a generalized tonic-clonic seizure unexpectedly at work_ He had no history of seizures, trauma, infection,
NemiM [27]

Answer:

a tumor is a growth of abnormal cells in the brain tissue, in this case they are malignant cancer cells since their growth is very fast, some are primary that start directly in the brain and other metastatic that start in another part of the body, in the case of Mister AH always had primary symptoms.

Tumors in the brain can show various symptoms. These are some of the most common:

Headaches, usually in the morning

Nausea and vomiting

Changes in the ability to speak, hear or see

Balance or walking problems

Problems with thinking or memory

Weakness or longing to sleep

Changes in mood or behavior

Seizures

tumors can destroy brain cells which can cause inflammation and damage to parts of the body depending on where in the brain this is exerted, this also aggravates the symptoms.

Radiation therapy used to treat brain cancers increases the risk of brain tumors up to 20 to 30 years later.

In this case, he was causing this same reaction to Mr. AH, which may also have another type of tumor such as

Meningiomas and schwanomas are two other types of brain tumor. These tumors:

They occur in most cases between the ages of 40 and 70.

They are not usually cancerous, but they can still cause serious complications and death due to their size or location. Some are cancerous and aggressive.

What action will slow down the rate of a reaction?
Ipatiy [6.2K]
B. Decreasing the surface area of solid reactant;
Why? Collision theory suggests that the more opportunities for reactants to come into contact or "collide" with other reactants, the faster the reaction will take place. Hence, decreasing the surface area will decrease the probability of collisions between reactants thereby decreasing reaction rate.

When does the exponential growth of a population stop?
Advocard [28]

Answer:

When the population reaches its carrying capacity.

Explanation:

As a population grows, there is more competition for resources which can limit a population. There are also natural disasters that can play a role too such as disease. Another factor that is part of carrying capacity is the size of the habitat. If there is no room, then the population cannot increase.
