Answer:

The correct answer would be "net formation by fibrin threads" .

Hemophilia is an X-linked recessive disorder in which a person is not able to produce clotting factors VIII (hemophilia A) or IX (hemophilia B).

These clotting factors are involved in the cascade of coagulation process which takes place after the formation of a platelet plug.

These clotting factors help in the conversion of fibrinogen (soluble protein) into insoluble fibrin which stabilizes the platelet plug and ensures that the wall of the vessel can be healed properly.

How do you find a genotype and a phenotype.
LenaWriter [7]
Well you should know about a punnet square, so anyways you have the result of the punnet square, if you have a dominant allele then the phenotype would be that allele, while the genotype is the dominant and either a recessive allele or a dominant allele.

The cytochrome c in both horses and pigeons differs from the human protein at 12 locations. Based on this data, you might infer
yuradex [85]

Answer:

Cytochrome c is an enzyme found in bacteria, fungi, plants and animals. Here it is given that the human amino acid sequence for cytochrome c differs at 12 locations from the sequence in horses and pigeons. This information might be useful for inferring in preliminary stages that horses and pigeons are closely related to each other since they both show similar amount of difference from humans.

However, this hypothesis is being made with respect to the the comparison between "humans and horses" and "humans and pigeons". To further test this hypothesis pigeons and horses should be directly compared to each other without the use of a third species like humans. Hence, the sequence for cytochrome c in horse and pigeon should be compared with each other rather than comparing to humans.

Can humans live underwater what are some things to consider
timurjin [86]

Underwater living faces many of the same life support challenges as living in space. ... But in the future, underwater habitats might provide their own oxygen with artificial gill technology to extract dissolved air from the sea water

Since humans do not have gills, we cannot extract oxygen from water. Some marine mammals, like whales and dolphins, do live in water, but they don't breathe it. They have developed a mechanism to hold their breath for long periods of time underwater.

To put these depths into perspective, three American football fields laid end to end would measure 900 feet (274.32 m) long — less than the distance these divers reached underwater. Most recreational scuba divers only dive as deep as 130 feet (40 meters), according to the Professional Association of Diving Instructors.
