The independent assortment of genes is a principle of Mendel and of genetics. Since humans are diploid organisms (they have 2 copies of their genetic information), we have that each gamete carries one of the two available alleles for each feature. These gametes are created in equal proportions.
We have that both parents are heterozygous for a feature, lets say H. Thus, their genotype is Hh. Hence, the child will get with probability 50%=1/2 H from the father and 50%=1/2 h from the father; same from the mother. By doing a Punnett square, we get that there is 1/4 chance that the child is HH, 1/2 chance that it is Hh and 1/4 that is hh. Since the disease is recessive (so both alleles are needed), we have that the chance that the kid has the disease is 1/4.
Answer:
D) elastic cartilage
Explanation:
Cartilage is a connective tissue which is fibrous in composition which provides its physical properties like the softness, elasticity and strength.
There are three types of cartilages- the elastic, hyaline and the fibrocartilage. Among these three the cartilage which forms the external ear is the elastic cartilage. The elastic cartilage is composed of the elastin protein, type II collagen and the elastic fibres. The presence of the elastin proteins and fibres allows the ear to be an elastic organ.
Thus, Option-D is the correct answer.
By determining the density of the object
Answer:
The action potential has three main stages: depolarization, repolarization, and hyperpolarization. Depolarization is caused when positively charged sodium ions rush into a neuron with the opening of voltage-gated sodium channels.
Explanation:
Answer:
The average speed is 60 miles per hour or 1 mile per minute.
Explanation:
If you multiply 30 by 2 to find the miles per hour, you also have to multiply 30 miles by 2. This results in 60 miles per hour. If you want to find the miles per minute, you divide the 30 minutes by 30. You have to do the same to the miles, so the average speed could also be 1 mile per minute.
