CH3COOH is considered an organic compound since it contains a chain of carbon. An organic compound is a class of organic compound that contains one or more carbon atom covalently linked to other elements. Inorganic compounds, on the other hand, is a compound that doesn't necessarily have a carbon atom.
Answer:
A. the heterozygote advantage
Explanation:
Heterozygote advantage is the condition where the heterozygous individual has higher relative fitness than both homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive individual. This means that the heterozygote individual has higher chances of surviving than both the homozygous counterparts. Sickle cell anemia is a recessive inherited disorder in which oxygen carrying hemoglobin has an abnormal structure. Hence, the resultant RBCs are not spherical but have crescent sickle shape. The oxygen carrying capacity of such RBCs is drastically reduced but they are unaffected by malarial parasite due to their abnormal structure.
- A person with both the recessive genes for sickle cell would not be able to survive due to insufficient oxygen transport in body.
- A person with both the dominant genes would be free of sickle cell anemia but in case of malaria would not be able to survive as the normal RBCs would be hijacked by the parasite.
- A hetrerozygote would survive both in malaria and sickle cell condition since he has enough normal RBCs for oxygen transport but also has sickle cell RBCs which are unaffected by malarial parasite.
Your answer is correct.
I like to remember the difference between kinetic and potential energy as potential energy “has the potential to move” as it stores energy and kinetic energy is when something “is kicked.” ATP relates to an entirely different process so that answer can be eliminated and the definition is accurately provided in one of the answer choices so D can be eliminated as well.
I hope this helps! :)
