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.

If an enzyme in solution is saturated with substrate, the most effective way to obtain a faster yield of products is to:a. add m
Simora [160]

Answer:

a. add more of the enzyme

Explanation:

Enzymes have specific sites to which their substrates bind during the reaction. These sites are called active sites. When all the active sites of all the enzyme molecules present in a solution are bound to the substrate molecules, the enzyme is said to be saturated with the substrate. Under these conditions, more enzyme molecules are to be added to the solution to increase the reaction rate and to obtain the product at a fast rate. The addition of more enzymes will allow more substrate molecules to occupy the active sites and to be converted into the product/s.
