Answer:

Higher temperatures are worsening many types of disasters, including storms, heat waves, floods, and droughts. A warmer climate creates an atmosphere that can collect, retain, and drop more water, changing weather patterns in such a way that wet areas become wetter and dry areas drier.

How much energy does an autotroph derive

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Autotrophs store chemical energy in carbohydrate food molecules they build themselves. Food is chemical energy stored in organic molecules. Food provides both the energy to do work and the carbon to build bodies. Because most autotrophs transform sunlight to make food, we call the process they use photosynthesis.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-linked recessive disease. A phenotypically normal couple wants to start a family. The woman’

Andreyy89

Answer:

$\frac{1}{8}$

Explanation:

From the question: Duchenne muscular dystrophy is an X-linked recessive disease.

Now for an X-linked recessive disorder to be affected by a male individual; it only requires the presence of only one copy of the recessive allele of the disease to be present BUT in a female individual. both copies of the recessive allele must be present.

Let the X-linked recessive disease(i.e Duchenne muscular dystrophy) be = (ⁿ)

However, we are told that the couples are normal and are unaffected. Therefore;

the male partner (XY) will be: $X^NY$

the female partner (XY) will be: $X^NX^N$

Similarly, the question proceeds by telling us that: the woman's brother has the disease.

Definitely, it's possible that this unaffected woman is a carrier of the disease.

So, if she is a carrier; we have her traits to be: $X^NX^n$

NOW, if a cross exist between these couples; we have

$X^NY$ × $X^NX^n$

$X^N$ $Y$

$X^N$ $X^NX^N$ $X^NY$

$X^n$ $X^NX^n$ $X^nY$

So, we have offspring as follows:

$X^NX^N$ = normal unaffected female

$X^NY$ = normal unaffected male

$X^NX^n$ = female carrier for the Duchenne muscular dystrophy disease

$X^nY$ = affected male with the Duchenne muscular dystrophy disease

So, the probability of the child to be affected with the disease = $\frac{1}{4}$

Also, the probability that the first child will be a male or a female = $\frac{1}{2}$

∴

the probability that the couple’s first child will be affected = $\frac{1}{4}*\frac{1}{2}$

= $\frac{1}{8}$

In two or more complete sentences describe a procedure to increase the deposition of sediment at the mouth of a stream.

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

one way to increase the deposition is to decrease the amount of vegetation living near the stream. This then causes erosion of all the sediment near the stream.The stream then carries all the loose sediment.

Addition of a(n) _____ group to certain lysine residues of a histone protein makes the region of chromatin transcriptionally ___

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

Addition of a(n) methyl group to certain lysine residues of a histone protein makes the region of chromatin transcriptionally silent; addition of a(n) acetyl group to certain lysine residues makes the region of chromatin transcriptionally active.

Explanation:

The changes suffered in the expression and activity of the genes are studied by the Epigenetics.
