Answer:

YES. This information is enough to assume that neither of the blood groups dominates over the other one.

Explanation:  

<u>Available data:</u>

  • A man with blood group B ----> Genotype IBIB or IBi
  • A woman with blood group AB ---> Genotype IAIB
  • Their daughter has blood group AB --> Genotype IAIB

The fact that the daughter´s genotype is IAIB tells us that she got the IA allele from the mother, who is IAIB, and the IB allele from his father, who is IB-.

  • If blood type B was dominant over A or AB, then the daughter should have Blood type B.
  • If blood type A was dominant over B or AB, then the daughter should have Blood type A.
  • Blood type AB tells us that both types are being expressed, A and B.

The fact that the daughter inherited one type of allele from each parent, but she is expressing the blood type AB, suggests that neither of the alleles dominates the other one. This is an example of co-dominance, where the heterozygote phenotype is an additive expression of both of the parents' genes.

This is enough information to assume that neither of the blood groups dominates over the other one.

Which type of species is the first to occupy a bare site?
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

pioneer species

Explanation:

Primary succession begins in barren areas, such as on bare rock exposed by a retreating glacier. The first inhabitants are lichens or plants—those that can survive in such an environment. Over hundreds of years these “pioneer species” convert the rock into soil that can support plants.

In contrast to compact bone, spongy bones does not contain true Haversian systems( tiny tubes that form a network in bone and contain blood vessels) but consist of an irregular lattice of thin plates of bone called trabeculae.The spaces between trabeculae are filled with marrow. The cells of the red marrow are responsible for producing blood. Within trabeculae  lie lacunae which contain osteocytes.<span> Blood vessels from the periosteum penetrate through to the spongy bone,  and osteocytes in the trabeculae are nourished directly from the blood circulating through the marrow cavities.</span>
