Answer:

Genotypic ratio = 1 (IaIa) : 1 (IaIe)

Phenotypic ratio = 1 (Type A) : 1 (Type AB)

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for the inheritance of blood type in humans. However, three alleles (multiple alleles) are responsible for this inheritance. Alleles ia and ie, according to the question, are dominant over alleles i.

According to this question, a man with blood type "laIa" (blood type A) marries a woman with type AB blood (IaIe). The following gametes will be produced by each parent:

IaIa - Ia and Ia

IaIe - Ia and Ie

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following proportion of offsprings will be produced:

2 IaIa, and 2 IaIe offsprings

Therefore,

Genotypic ratio = 1 (IaIa) : 1 (IaIe)

Phenotypic ratio = 1 (Type A) : 1 (Type AB)

What are the reactants for oxidation reaction?

Alexxx [7]

The reactant that brings about the oxidation is called the oxidising agent, and that reagent is itself reduced by the reducing agent.

Oxidation occurs when a reactant loses electrons during the reaction. Reduction occurs when a reactant gains electrons during the reaction. This often occurs when metals are reacted with acid.

Oxidation is loss of electrons (OIL RIG). Therefore, an oxidising agent takes electrons from that other substance. Therefore, an oxidising agent must gain electrons.

Oxidation happens when an atom loses one or more electrons during a chemical reaction, meaning that its oxidation number increases. This is because the atom loses the negative charge of the electron, which is similar to gaining a positive charge, increasing the oxidation number.

Based on the graph the region expected to have the least population growth will be Australia.

<h3>Graphical illustrations</h3>

Looking at the given graph the population size of each region starts at a lower point and ends at a higher point on the graph between the years 1950 and 2050.

The change in the population also varies depending on the scale on the y-axis. Australia has the lowest scale which lies between somewhere above 10 and 50.
