A family has a Y-linked disease that affects the father. What is the chance of a male offspring inheriting the same disease?

Biology

Leno4ka [110]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

100%

Explanation:

A sex-linked trait is a trait which is inherited on the sex chromosomes (X and Y chromosomes). This means that that trait is only inherited by offsprings of a particular sex. In this question, a family is said to have a Y-linked disease that affects the father.

Note that, Y chromosomes are only present in the male sex, meaning that a father will always transfer its Y chromosome to all his male offsprings. Since this disease (trait) is on the Y chromosome, it means that all male offsprings i.e. 100% of this father will have the disease.

Evidence suggests that first, ____________ were acquired when an aerobic bacterium was engulfed by larger cells and became mutua
leonid [27]

Answer:

1. Mitochondria

2. Chloroplast

3. the formation of eukaryotic cells

4. DNA

Explanation:

The theory of endosymbiosis was proposed by the Lynn Margulis in 1967 which suggested that the eukaryotic organelles like the mitochondria and chloroplast evolved when another prokaryotic cell engulfed the prokaryotic bacteria.

The mitochondria were formed when the chemosynthetic bacteria were engulfed by the bacteria and the engulfed bacteria formed a symbiotic relationship. Similarly, the chloroplast was originated in the same way when the photosynthetic bacteria were engulfed by another prokaryote.

The evidence which supports their ar:

1. The same size of the organelles to the bacteria

2. The presence of the circular DNA of the organelles like bacteria  

3. The similarity in the 30s and 70s ribosomal subunits.

A particular triplet of bases in the template strand of DNA is 5' AGT 3'. The corresponding codon for the mRNA transcribed is __
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is 3' UCA 5'

Explanation:

The rule of pairing of base-pair says that A and T base pairs with each other with two hydrogen bonds and G and C base pairs with each other with three hydrogen bonds in DNA. In the case of RNA Uracil comes at the place of thymine that means uracil replaces thymine.

Therefore according to this base-pairing rule the corresponding codon of mRNA transcribes from DNA codon 5' AGT 3' will be 3' UCA 5' as U came in place of A nucleotide, C comes in place of G nucleotide, and A comes in place of T nucleotide.  

Therefore the correct answer is 3' UCA 5'.
