Answer:

11B (reproduce). 12C (be eaten). 13A (variation). 14C (better adapted). 15C (Darwin). 16A (evolved). 17C (competition).

Explanation:

11 - The key principle underlying evolution by natural selection is that traits are only passed on if the organism survives long enough to reporduce. An adaptation that increases its likelihood of survival will therefore increase the chance it will reproduce.

12 - Deer rely on their brown fur to remain camouflaged in the forest so that predators can't see them. A white deer will stand out and will be seen by predators and eaten.

13 - This is the definition of variation. The variation becomes an adaptation if it actually benefits the organism in some way in its environment. A variation could also be neutral (doesn't affect the organism) or deleterious (bad).

14 - See previous question.

15 - Darwin developed the theory.

16 - This is describing the process of evolution.

17 - This is an example of competition.

Hemophilia is Xlinked recessive trait .Consider a cross between a women who is carrier and man who suffers from hemophilia,Which

lozanna [386]

Answer:

II and III

Explanation:

I. All sons of these parents will be a hemophiliac.

II. A son who suffers from hemophilia received the hemophilia allele from his mother.

III. Half of the daughters of this cross are predicted to be hemophiliacs.

Assuming the haemophilia allele is represented by h, the alternate form being H.

A woman that is a carrier will have the genotype $X^H X^h$ .

A man who suffers from haemophilia will have the genotype $X^h Y$

Crossing both of them:

$X^H X^h$ x $X^h Y$ = $X^H X^h, X^H Y, X^hX^h and X^hY$

From the result of the cross, the following can be deduced:

Half or 50% of the sons from the couple will be haemophiliacs.
Any son that suffers from haemophilia received the allele from the mother.
Half or 50% of the daughters from this cross will be hemophiliacs.

Hence, statements II and III are true.

inysia [295]

Answer:

Montesquieu said that "every man invested with power is apt to abuse it, and to carry his authority as far as it will go". Agree with this statement.

Explanation:

In the book, "The Spirits of the Law", Montesquieu wrote that powers of a government should be divided between three: legislative, executive and judiciary. This separation is important to make sure that a single group of individuals are not given too much of a power. This would ensure that power is not abused.

He said that history has proved that political power has always been abused by a person who has it in abundance. So, to promote political liberty he thought it is important that there are separate branches of powers in a government.

So, Montesquieu made such a system with checks and balances so that no man uses law to do things he shouldn't do and also he refrains from doing what he is allowed to do.
